Wavelength Doesn't Matter: Optical vs. X-ray Luminosities of Galaxy Clusters
Christopher J. Miller, Adrian L. Melott, Robert C. Nichol
We examine the relationship between the total X-ray and optical luminosities of groups and clusters of galaxies taken from various samples in the literature. The clusters and group…
Redshift Surveys and the Value of Omega
Hume A. Feldman, Adrian L. Melott
We compare the statistical properties of structures normal and transverse to the line of sight which appear in observational data from redshift surveys. We present a statistic whic…
Environmental Dependence of the Fundamental Plane of Galaxy Clusters
Christopher J. Miller, Adrian Melott, Patrick Gorman
Galaxy clusters approximate a planar (FP) distribution in a three-dimensional parameter space which can be characterized by optical luminosity, half-light radius, and X-ray luminos…
Massive Cooling Flow Clusters Inhabit Crowded Environments
Chris Loken, Adrian L. Melott, Christopher J. Miller
With the availability of large-scale redshift survey data, it is now becoming possible to explore correlations between large-scale structure and the properties and morphologies of…
Disentangling the Cosmic Web I: Morphology of Isodensity Contours
Jens Schmalzing, Thomas Buchert, Adrian L. Melott +3
We apply Minkowski functionals and various derived measures to decipher the morphological properties of large-scale structure seen in simulations of gravitational evolution. Minkow…
Bias and Hierarchical Clustering
Peter Coles, Adrian Melott, Dipak Munshi
It is now well established that galaxies are biased tracers of the distribution of matter, although it is still not known what form this bias takes. In local bias models the propen…
