Scientific paper

We construct filament catalogues in a 250 Mpc/h N-body simulation using the halo based filament finder of Zhang et al.(2009) to study the properties of filaments in cluster neighborhood. We consider the cluster environment (within 10 Mpc/h spheres) in part because the finder does so. We find the filaments attached to the cluster tend to lie within a 3 Mpc/h thick plane, although often at least one filament lies outside the plane. For many clusters, this planar geometry has a correlation with the line of sight dependent mass scatter in several observables.
