On the Infall of Matter Into Clusters of Galaxies and Some Effects on Their Evolution
Abstract
A theory of infall of material into clusters of galaxies is developed and applied to the Coma chister. It is suggested that the infall phenomenon is responsible for the growth of cluster galaxies. The generation of a hot intracluster medium is discussed and its relation to the observed absence of normal spirals in rich clusters investigated. The inference made earlier by Gott and Gunn that the observed X-ray luminosity of Coma puts severe constraints on the deceleration parameter qo is further elucidated. We discuss the relation of these phenomena to the morphology of clusters, and find that some observed regularities in their observed properties can be explained.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
