Scientific paper

We have studied superclusters of galaxies in a volume-limited sample extracted from the SDSS/DR7 and also from simulations. The density field method was applied to identify superclusters. We have used the Minkowski Functionals to classify them as filaments or pancakes. Our results showed that filaments tend to be richer and larger structures, suggesting that pancakes evolve to filaments.
