Morphological segregation in the Pisces-Perseus supercluster
Abstract
Evidence for the continuous morphological segregation among galaxies along the entire Hubble sequence is sought for the wide range of galaxian densities represented by the Pisces-Perseus supercluster. The two-point autocorrelation function is computed for various subsets of the galaxy sample. Early-type galaxies in the Pisces-Perseus region tend to cluster on smaller angular scales than do later types. Furthermore, the correlation function for Sa and Sab galaxies is steeper than that of Sb or Sc galaxies. As is seen in rich clusters and groups, the population fractions of elliptical and S0 galaxies grow with increasing density throughout the supercluster, while the spiral fraction correspondingly decreases. The variation in the population fractions can be traced smoothly to regions of very low galaxian density so that a gradient in the population fraction is evident at nearly all density regimes.

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.
