Galaxy cluster mergers are representative of a wide range of physics, making them an excellent probe of the properties of dark matter and the ionized plasma of the intracluster medium. To date, most studies have focused on mergers occurring…

Clustering procedures suitable for the analysis of very high-dimensional data are needed for many modern data sets. In model-based clustering, a method called high-dimensional data clustering (HDDC) uses a family of Gaussian mixture models…
