Identifying galaxy groups from redshift surveys of galaxies plays an important role in connecting galaxies with the underlying dark matter distribution. Current and future high-$z$ spectroscopic surveys, usually incomplete in redshift…
The paper discusses the problem of the orientation of galaxies in groups in the Local Supercluster (LSC). The existence of the preferred orientation of galaxy group is shown. We found that the orientation of galaxy groups in the Local…
The peculiar radial velocities of eight clusters of galaxies, as determined from a variety of distance indicators, are consistent with a bulk flow not greatly different in direction and magnitude from the velocity vector of the Local Group…
To re-examine the rich cluster $\Omega$ value the CNOC Cluster Survey has observed 16 high X-ray luminosity clusters in the redshift range 0.17 to 0.55, obtaining approximately 2600 velocities in their fields. Directly adding all the K and…
We study the clustering properties of groups and of galaxies in groups in the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey dataset at z~1. Four clustering measures are presented: 1) the group correlation function for 460 groups with estimated velocity…
We present the largest publicly available catalogue of compact groups of galaxies identified using the original selection criteria of Hickson, selected from the Sixth Data Release (DR6) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We identify…
We recently showed that several Local Group (LG) galaxies have much higher radial velocities (RVs) than predicted by a 3D dynamical model of the standard cosmological paradigm. Here, we show that 6 of these 7 galaxies define a thin plane…
The 2dFGRS is used in conjunction with the 2MASSXSC to study the near-IR light and stellar mass content of the local Universe. Mock galaxy catalogues, constructed from cosmological N-body simulations and semi-analytical galaxy formation…
Recent astronomical data strongly suggest that a significant part of the dark matter, composing the Local Group and Virgo Supercluster, is not incorporated into the galaxy haloes and forms diffuse components of these galaxy clusters.…
We introduce the first entire-sky catalog of the most isolated nearby galaxies with radial velocities VLG<3500 km/s. This kind of cosmic "orphans" amounts to 4% among all known galaxies within the same velocity range. We describe a…
We analysed the orientation of galaxy groups in the Local Supercluster (LSC). It is strongly correlated with the distribution of neighbouring groups in the scale till about 20 Mpc. The group major axis is in alignment with both the line…
We present cosmological simulations which closely mimic the real Universe within 100Mpc of the Local Group. The simulations, called Constrained Simulations, reproduce the large-scale density field with major nearby structures, including the…
We investigate the assembly of groups and clusters of galaxies using the Millennium dark matter simulation and the associated gas simulations and semi-analytic catalogues of galaxies. In particular, in order to find an observable quantity…
Key and still largely missing parameters for measuring the mass content and distribution of the Local Group are the proper motion vectors of its member galaxies. The problem when trying to derive the gravitational potential of the Local…
We present a pedagogical review on the formation and evolution of galaxies in groups, utilizing observational information from the Local Group to galaxies at z~6. The majority of galaxies in the nearby universe are found in groups, and…
A small survey of the UV-absorbing gas in 12 low-$z$ galaxy groups has been conducted using the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) on-board the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). Targets were selected from a large, homogeneously-selected sample…
We use recent proper motion measurements of the tangential velocity of M31, along with its radial velocity and distance, to derive the likelihood of the sum of halo masses of the Milky Way and M31. This is done using a sample halo pairs in…
We present results from our Parkes Multibeam HI survey of 3 loose groups of galaxies that are analogous to the Local Group. This is a survey of groups containing only spiral galaxies with mean separations of a few hundred kpc, and total…
Abridged] We present here new results on the space density of rich, optically-selected, clusters of galaxies at low redshift (z<0.15). These results are based on the application of the matched filter cluster-finding algorithm to 1067 deg2…
Galaxy groups likely to be virialized are identified within the CNOC2 intermediate redshift galaxy survey using an iterative method. The number-velocity dispersion relation is in agreement with the low-mass extrapolation of the cluster…
