(abridged) We measure spectral indices for 1823 galaxies in the CNOC1 sample of fifteen X-ray luminous clusters at 0.18<z<0.55, to investigate the mechanisms responsible for differential evolution between the galaxy cluster and field…
We present the results of a joint analysis of $Chandra$ X-ray and South Pole Telescope (SPT) SZ observations targeting the first sample of galaxy clusters at $0.3 < z < 1.3$, selected to be the progenitors of well-studied nearby clusters…
We present first results on the cooling properties derived from Chandra X-ray observations of 83 high-redshift (0.3 < z < 1.2) massive galaxy clusters selected by their Sunyaev-Zel'dovich signature in the South Pole Telescope data. We…
We investigate effects of time evolution of a rich cluster of galaxies on its member galactic halos in the standard cold dark matter (SCDM) universe using high resolution N-body simulations. We identify several hundred galactic halos within…
Using N-body simulations, we have modeled the production and evolution of low surface brightness, diffuse intra-cluster light (ICL) in galaxy clusters. By creating simulated observations of the clusters we have measured the evolution of the…
We study the evolution of substructure in the mass distribution with mass, redshift and radius in a sample of simulated galaxy clusters. The sample, containing $1226$ objects, spans the mass range $M_{200} = 10^{14} - 1.74 \times 10^{15} \…
The physics of X-ray cavities in galaxy clusters is constrained by their observed morphological evolution, which depends on such poorly-understood properties as the turbulent density field and magnetic fields. Here we combine numerical…
Deep surveys conducted during the past decades have shown that galaxies in the distant universe are generally of more irregular shapes, and are disky in appearance and in their star formation rate, compared to galaxies in similar…
We study the dynamical evolution of star clusters on eccentric orbits using a semi-analytical approach. In particular we adapt and extend the equations of EMACSS code, introduced by Gieles et al. (2014), to work with eccentric orbits. We…
Using high resolution N-body simulations we have studied the formation and evolution of clusters and groups in a LCDM cosmological model. Groups of galaxies have been formed already before z=4. The total number of small bound systems and…
The evolution of galaxy clusters can be affected by the repulsion described by the cosmological constant. This conclusion is reached within the modified weak-field General Relativity approach where the cosmological constant \Lambda enables…
The evolution of the galaxy cluster abundance depends sensitively on the value of the cosmological density parameter, Omega_0. Recent ASCA data are used to quantify this evolution as measured by the X-ray temperature function. A chi^2…
We measure the morphology-density relation of galaxies at z=1 across the full three orders of magnitude in projected galaxy density available in low-redshift studies. Our study adopts techniques that are comparable with those applied at…
We present spatially resolved stellar rotation velocity and velocity dispersion profiles form Keck/LRIS absorption-line spectra for 25 galaxies, mostly visually classified ellipticals, in three clusters at z=0.5. We interpret the…
We reinvestigate the dramatic rise in the S0 fraction, f_S0, within clusters since z ~ 0.5. In particular, we focus on the role of the global galaxy environment on f_S0 by compiling, either from our own observations or the literature,…
We use the L-GALAXIES semi-analytic model to investigate the evolution of Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) found in clusters at $\rm z \sim 0$. BCGs are typically located in the central region of galaxy clusters, near the bottom of the…
The nonlinear evolution of matter clustering induces temperature anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background. The fluctuations in temperature are produced at a relatively low redshift, $z\simlt 10$, and consequently are not affected by…
We measure the evolution of galaxy clustering out to a redshift of z~1.5 using data from two MUSYC fields, the Extended Hubble Deep Field South (EHDF-S) and the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDF-S). We use photometric redshift…
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…
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…
