Observational Support for the Gurzadyan-Kocharyan Relation in Clusters of Galaxies
Pierluigi Monaco
Abstract
We show that observational data for four Abell clusters of galaxies support the Gur\-za\-dyan-Kocharyan relation between the Hausdorff dimension and the dynamical properties of a galaxy system. The Hausdorff dimension is calculated using the two-point correlation function, while the dynamical parameters are estimated using available data and reasonable assumptions on the mass function of galaxies. This result can have essential consequences in the understanding of the dynamical mechanisms that determine the fractal distribution of galaxies.
