Scientific paper

A photographic photometry study was made of twelve very rich clusters of galaxies in order to compare many of the properties associated with clusters. The variations in the luminosity functions were compared to the random fluctuations expected with a universal function, as determined by a Monte Carlo generation technique. The concept of a universal luminosity function was found to be inconsistent with the observed fluctuations. Topics discussed include spatial distribution of clusters, mass/light ratios, galaxy alignment, population discrimination, and galactic evolution.
