Theory of galaxy dynamics in clusters and groups
Gary A. Mamon
Analytical estimates of the mass and radial dependence of the rates of galaxy mergers and of tidal interactions are derived for clusters and groups of galaxies, taking into account…
Tangential Large Scale Structure as a Standard Ruler: Curvature Parameters from Quasars
Boudewijn F. Roukema, Gary A. Mamon
Several observational analyses suggest that matter is spatially structured at at low redshifts. This peak in the power spectrum provides a standard ruler in…
Merging History Trees for Dark Matter Halos: Tests of the Merging Cell Model in a CDM Cosmology
Barbara Lanzoni, Gary A. Mamon, Bruno Guiderdoni
The merging history of dark matter halos is computed with the Merging Cell Model proposed by Rodrigues & Thomas (1996). While originally discussed in the case of scale-free power s…
Dark Matter Halos Merging Trees: the Merging Cell Model in a CDM Cosmology
Barbara Lanzoni, Gary A. Mamon, Bruno Guiderdoni
We have constructed the merging history of dark matter halos in a SCDM cosmology, by means of a the {``Merging Cell Model''} (Rodrigues & Thomas 1996). It is based on the linear th…
Understanding low and high velocity dispersion compact groups
G. A. Mamon
A galaxy system must have a minimum velocity dispersion for its mass to be greater than the sum of the masses of its galaxies. Nearly half of the nearby Hickson compact groups (HCG…
Near-Infrared Galaxy Surveys in 2D, 3D & 4D
G. A. Mamon
The completeness and reliability of the DENIS IJK survey and the EDSGC (derived from the COSMOS scans of USKT plates) are obtained by detailed cross-identifications and systematic…
DENIS Observations of Multibeam Galaxies in the Zone of Avoidance
A. Schröder, R. C. Kraan-Korteweg, G. A. Mamon
Roughly 25% of the optical extragalactic sky is obscured by the dust and stars of our Milky Way. Dynamically important structures might still lie hidden in this zone. Various surve…
