Galaxy structures - Groups, clusters and superclusters
Abstract
We provide a brief summary of the history of galaxy structure studies. We also introduce several large-scale redshift surveys and summarize the most commonly used methods to identify the groups and clusters of galaxies. We present several catalogues of galaxy groups.These catalogues can be used to study the galaxy groups in different environments. We also consider the properties of superclusters of galaxies in the nearby Universe and describe the largest system of galaxies observed - the Sloan Great Wall.
