Large-scale distribution and spectral properties of galaxies in the Shapley Concentration

Abstract

We present the results of a redshift survey of both cluster and intercluster galaxies in the central part of the Shapley Concentration, the richest supercluster of clusters in the nearby Universe, consisting of ~2000 radial velocities. We estimate the total overdensity in galaxies of the supercluster and its mass and we discuss the cosmological implications of these results. Moreover, using a Principal Components Analysis technique, we study the influence of the cluster and supercluster dynamics on the galaxy spectral morphology.
