In the context of the CNOC1 cluster survey, redshifts were obtained for galaxies in 16 clusters. The resulting sample is ideally suited for an analysis of the internal velocity and mass distribution of clusters. Previous analyses of this…
To study systematically the evolution on the angular extents of the galaxy, ICM, and dark matter components in galaxy clusters, we compiled the optical and X-ray properties of a sample of 340 clusters with redshifts $<0.5$, based on all the…
The nonlinear clustering of dark matter particles in an expanding universe is usually studied by N-body simulations. One can gain some insight into this complex problem if simple relations between physical quantities in the linear and…
Whether the X-ray luminosities of clusters of galaxies evolve has been a contentious issue for over ten years. However, the data available to address this issue have improved dramatically as cluster surveys from the ROSAT archive near…
We have investigated the redshift evolution of the colour--cluster-centric-radius relation and the morphology--cluster-centric-radius relation in three redshift bins, $0.02\leq z\leq 0.14$, $0.14< z\leq 0.20$, and $0.20< z\leq 0.30$ using a…
We investigated the evolution of the physical properties of the brightest galaxies in clusters and their protohalos from $z = 4$ to $z = 0$. Galaxy clusters and groups are identified using a halo-based group finder applied to the COSMOS2020…
We constrain the evolution of the brightest cluster galaxy plus intracluster light (BCG+ICL) using an ensemble of 42 galaxy groups and clusters that span redshifts of z = 0.05-1.75 and masses of $M_{500,c}=2\times10^{13}-10^{15}$ M$_\odot$…

We are carrying out a programme to measure the evolution of the stellar and dynamical masses and M/L ratios for a sizeable sample of morphologically-classified disk galaxies in rich galaxy clusters at 0.2<z<0.9. Using FORS2 at the VLT we…
We present extended simulations of the distribution of galaxy clusters in different dark matter models, using an optimized version of the Zel'dovich approximation. Six different dark matter models are studied: Standard CDM, Open CDM, Tilted…

In this paper we re-visit the observational relation between X-ray luminosity and temperature for high-z galaxy clusters and compare it with the local L_X-T and with theoretical models. To these ends we use a sample of 17 clusters extracted…
We probe the evolution of globular clusters that could form in giant molecular clouds within high-redshift galaxies. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the large and dense enough gas clouds assemble naturally in current hierarchical…
We investigated the evolution of clusters of galaxies using self-consistent N-body simulations. We varied the initial model of galaxies and clusters, and studied the dependence of evolution on initial conditions. We found that the growth…
We analyzed the luminosity-temperature-mass of gas (L_{X} - T - M_{g}) relation for sample of galaxy clusters that have been observed by the Chandra satellite. We used 21 high-redshift clusters (0.4 < z < 1.4). We assumed a power-law…
Galaxy clusters are excellent probes to study the effect of environment on galaxy formation and evolution. Along with high-quality observational data, accurate cosmological simulations are required to improve our understanding of galaxy…
The evolution of star clusters is studied using N-body simulations in which the evolution of single stars and binaries are taken self-consistently into account. Initial conditions are chosen to represent relatively young Galactic open…
In galaxy clusters, the hot intracluster medium (ICM) can develop a striking multi-phase structure around the brightest cluster galaxy. Much work has been done on understanding the origin of this central nebula, but less work has studied…
We use a combination of N-body simulations of the hierarchical clustering of dark matter and semi-analytic modelling of the physics of galaxy formation to probe the relationship between the galaxy distribution and the mass distribution. The…
We present large-scale molecular dynamics simulations to study the free evolution of granular gases. Initially, the density of particles is homogeneous and the velocity follows a Maxwell-Boltzmann (MB) distribution. The system cools down…
