Scientific paper

The evolution of the population of rich galactic clusters with time is studied. It is shown that, for a class of initial conditions which are at least approximately scale-free, the clusters should evolve very rapidly with time, and in a manner which is readily predictable. Detailed quantitative predictions are made for the form of clusters at redshifts above zero. A model is constructed which incorporates both the collisionless dynamics of the dark matter and the galaxies, as well as the important process of gas infall. The model results in very simple analytic formulas for the evolution of the distribution of cluster masses and other properties.
