From a total sample of 45 Abell clusters observed by the Einstein X-ray observatory, we present the results on the galaxy luminosity function (LF) for a group of seven clusters that were identified by the morphology of their LFs. The LFs…
Luminosity functions have been determined for star cluster populations in 20 nearby (4-30 Mpc), star-forming galaxies based on ACS source lists generated by the Hubble Legacy Archive. Comparisons are made with other recently generated…
We present results from a deep photometric study of the rich galaxy cluster Abell 2218 (z=0.18) based on archival HST WFPC2 F606W images. These have been used to derive the luminosity function to extremely faint limits (M_{F606W}=-13.2 mag,…
We present a deep wide field Halpha imaging survey of the central regions of the two nearby clusters of galaxies Coma and Abell1367, taken with the WFC at the INT2.5m telescope. We determine for the first time the Schechter parameters of…
We derive the luminosity functions in three bands (BVR) for the rich galaxy cluster ABCG 209 at z=0.21. The data cover an area of ~78 arcmin^2 in the B and R bands, while a mosaic of three pointings was obtained in the V band, covering an…
We present the composite luminosity function (hereafter LF) of galaxies for 81 Abell clusters studied in our survey of the Northern Hemisphere, using DPOSS data processed by the CRoNaRio collaboration. The derived LF is very accurate due to…
We previously reported a significant clustering of red galaxies (R-K=3.5--6) around the radio-loud quasar B2 1335+28 at z=1.086. In this paper, we establish the existence of a rich cluster at the quasar redshift, and study the properties of…
The composite galaxy luminosity function (hereafter LF) of 39 Abell clusters of galaxies is derived by computing the statistical excess of galaxy counts in the cluster direction with respect to control fields. Due to the wide field coverage…

We present the galaxy luminosity function (LF) of the Abell 119 cluster down to $M_r\sim-14$ mag based on deep images in the $u$-, $g$-, and $r$-bands taken by using MOSAIC II CCD mounted on the Blanco 4m telescope at the CTIO. The cluster…
We present deep two-colour photometry of two rich clusters at z=0.18, A665 and A1689. We use these data to construct number counts as a function of magnitude in the two fields. By combining these counts with similar observations from a…
We have recently completed a comprehensive photometric survey of 27 Abell clusters with the 8k mosaic camera on the KPNO 0.9m telescope. Preliminary luminosity functions and dwarf-to-giant galaxy ratios have been calculated for five galaxy…

We present the UV composite luminosity function for galaxies in the Virgo, Coma and Abell 1367 clusters. The luminosity function (LF) is well fitted by a Schechter function with M*(UV} - 5*log h(75) = -20.75 +/- 0.40 and alpha = -1.50 +/-…
We have measured the surface density of galaxies toward 14 X-ray-selected cluster candidates at redshifts greater than z=0.46, and we show that they are associated with rich galaxy concentrations. We find that the clusters range between…

We have obtained new redshifts for 265 objects in the central 48~$\times$~25~arcmin$^2$ region of the Coma cluster. When supplemented with literature data, our redshift sample is 95~\% complete up to a magnitude b$_{26.5}$=18.0 (the…
