Statistics

Scientific paper

Superclusters of galaxies are dynamically unrelaxed entities; consequently they tend to be more filamentary than clusters themselves. We have used the minimal spanning tree, a graph theoretical method particularly sensitive to filamentary structures, to compile a catalog of superclusters from a list of Abell clusters within redshift z=0.1, in order to delineate the largest bound structures in the local Universe. We present a preliminary analysis of the clustering statistics of superclusters in this catalogue, as well as the statistics of the richness and luminosity distribution of the superclusters.
