We study the morphology of the richest superclusters from the catalogues of superclusters of galaxies in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey and compare the morphology of real superclusters with model superclusters in the Millennium Simulation.…

We studied superclusters of galaxies in a volume-limited sample extracted from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7 (SDSS/DR7) and from mock catalogues based on a semi-analytical model of galaxy evolution in the Millenium Simulation.…

We investigate properties of superclusters of galaxies found on the basis of the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey, and compare them with properties of superclusters from the Millennium Simulation. We study the dependence of various…

Galaxy superclusters, the largest galaxy structures in the cosmic web, are formed due to the gravitational collapse (although they are not usually gravitationally bound). Their geometrical properties can shed light on the structure…

To explain the unusual richness and compactness of the Abell 2744, we propose a hypothesis that it may be a rich supercluster aligned along the sightline, and present a supporting evidence obtained numerically from the MultiDark Planck 2…
