Percolation Galaxy Groups and Clusters in the SDSS Redshift Survey: Identification, Catalogs, and the Multiplicity Function [PDF]
We identify galaxy groups and clusters in volume-limited samples of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) redshift survey, using a redshift-space friends-of-friends algorithm.

Towards a realistic population of simulated galaxy groups and clusters [PDF]
We present a new suite of large-volume cosmological hydrodynamical simulations called cosmo-OWLS. They form an extension to the OverWhelmingly Large Simulations (OWLS) project, and have been designed to help improve our understanding of cluster ...

Scaling Properties of Galaxy Groups
Galaxy groups and poor clusters are more common than rich clusters, and host the largest fraction of matter content in the Universe. Hence, their studies are key to understand the gravitational and thermal evolution of the bulk of the cosmic matter ...

THE ROLE OF POOR GALAXY CLUSTERS FOR STUDYING SUPERCLUSTER STRUCTURE
The distribution of galaxy clusters is analyzed in regions of 6 galaxy superclusters with both measured and estimated redshifts. The positions of ACO and APM galaxy clusters in the regions are compared with the positions of galaxy clusters and groups ...

Not all the light in galaxy groups and clusters comes from stars that are bound to galaxies. A significant fraction of it constitutes the so-called intracluster or diffuse light (ICL), a low surface brightness component of groups/clusters generally found

The Environmental Dependence of the Evolving S0 Fraction [PDF]
We reinvestigate the dramatic rise in the S0 fraction, f_S0, within clusters since z ~ 0.5. In particular, we focus on the role of the global galaxy environment on f_S0 by compiling, either from our own observations or the literature, robust line-of ...

A volume-limited sample of X-ray galaxy groups and clusters – I. Radial entropy and cooling time profiles [PDF]
We present the first results of our study of a sample of 101 X-ray galaxy groups and clusters, which is volume-limited in each of three X-ray luminosity bins. The aim of this work is to study the properties of the innermost ICM in the cores of our groups

How special are brightest group and cluster galaxies? [PDF]
Abstract We use the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to construct a sample of 625 brightest group and cluster galaxies (BCGs) together with control samples of non-BCGs matched in stellar mass, redshift and colour. We investigate how the systematic properties of BCGs depend on stellar mass and on their privileged location near the cluster ...

Abstract We take advantage of a state-of-art semianalytic model of galaxy formation, and the model presented by Contini & Gu, to investigate the mass distribution of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) and intracluster light (ICL) by addressing two points: (1) the region of transition between a BCG-dominated distribution and an ICL ...
