We investigate the large-scale distribution of galaxy clusters taken from several X-ray catalogs. Different statistics of clustering like the conditional correlation function (CCF) and the minimal spanning tree (MST) as well as void…
X-ray observations of galaxy clusters reveal a large range of morphologies with various degrees of disturbance, showing that the assumptions of hydrostatic equilibrium and spherical shape which are used to determine the cluster mass from…
The results from hydrodynamical TREESPH simulations of galaxy clusters are used to investigate the dependence of the final cluster X-ray properties upon the numerical resolution and the assumed star formation models for the cooled gas. When…
We use the semi-analytic models of galaxy formation developed by Kauffmann, White \& Guiderdoni to generate predictions for the observed properties of cluster and group galaxies at redshifts between 0 and 0.6. We examine four sets of…
In this work, we present results for the photometric and clustering properties of galaxies that arise in a LambdaCDM hydrodynamical simulation of the local universe. The present-day distribution of matter was constructed to match the…
The baryon fraction of galaxy clusters is a powerful tool to inform on the cosmological parameters while the hot-gas fraction provides indications on the physics of the intracluster plasma and its interplay with the processes driving galaxy…
Using Chandra archival data, we quantify the evolution of cluster morphology with redshift. To quantify cluster morphology, we use the power ratio method developed by Buote and Tsai (1995). Power ratios are constructed from moments of the…
We explore the morphological and dynamical evolution of galaxy clusters in simulations using scalar and vector-valued Minkowski valuations and the concept of fundamental plane relations. In this context, three questions are of fundamental…
Cosmological N-body simulations represent an excellent tool to study the formation and evolution of dark matter (DM) halos and the mechanisms that have originated the universal profile at the largest mass scales in the Universe. In…
The relationship linking a galaxy cluster's total mass with the concentration of its mass profile and its redshift is a fundamental prediction of the Cold Dark Matter (CDM) paradigm of cosmic structure formation. However, confronting those…
We use two new hydrodynamical simulations of $\Lambda$CDM and $f(R)$ gravity to test the methodology used by Wilcox et al. 2015 (W15) in constraining the effects of a fifth force on the profiles of clusters of galaxies. We construct…
Morphology is often used to infer the state of relaxation of galaxy clusters. The regularity, symmetry, and degree to which a cluster is centrally concentrated inform quantitative measures of cluster morphology. The Cluster Lensing and…
We introduce a new technique for following the formation and evolution of galaxies in cosmological N-body simulations. Dissipationless simulations are used to track the formation and merging of dark matter halos as a function of redshift.…
Using cosmological N-body simulations of critical (SCDM) and open ($\Omega = 0.3$, OCDM) cold dark matter models, we investigate evolution of cluster galaxies. From our numerical simulation, we construct merging history trees of the…
We use very large cosmological N--body simulations to obtain accurate predictions for the two-point correlations and power spectra of mass-limited samples of galaxy clusters. We consider two currently popular cold dark matter (CDM)…
We introduce a set of four new publicly available N-body simulations, the most recent additions to the Texas P^3M Database. Our models probe the less studied parameter space region of moderate volume (100/h Mpc box) combined with fine mass…
We use updated gas mass fraction measurements of 44 massive dynamically relaxed galaxy clusters collated in arXiv:2111.09343 to distinguish between the standard $\Lambda$CDM model and $R_h=ct$ universe. For this purpose, we use Bayesian…
We present a self-consistent approach to the modeling of X-ray clusters of galaxies in a flat universe. Employing the Press and Schechter (1974) formalism to derive the mass function and relating the observable properties of clusters to…
We review recent progress in the description of the formation and evolution of galaxy clusters in a cosmological context by using numerical simulations. We focus our presentation on the comparison between simulated and observed X-ray…
We use a one dimensional hydrodynamical code to study the evolution of spherically symmetric perturbations in the framework of Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND). The code evolves spherical gaseous shells in an expanding Universe by…
