The Mass Function of Nearby Galaxy Clusters

arXiv:astro-ph/9304009 · doi:10.1086/186900

Abstract

We present the distribution of virial masses for nearby galaxy clusters, as obtained from a data-set of 75 clusters, each having at least 20 galaxy members with measured redshifts within 1 Abell radius. After having accounted for problems of incompleteness of the data-set, we fitted a power-law to the cluster mass distribution.
