ASTROPHYSICS: RESEARCH ON ASTROPHYSICS REPORTED BY H.A. HARUTYUNIAN ET AL
Science Letter
September 30, 2008
According to recent research from Armenia, "Some physical
characteristics of cD galaxies are examined in the context of their
formation during Ambartsumyan events."
"In this paper, cD galaxies are considered as generators of the
clusters in which they occur. The segregation of clusters in terms of
their morphological classes and the well known Faber-Jackson relation
are discussed as arguments for this concept," wrote H.A. Harutyunian
and colleagues (see also Astrophysics).
The researchers concluded: "This concept provides a rather natural
explanation for the observed features of cD galaxies and the associated
clusters."
Harutyunian and colleagues published their study in Astrophysics
(On the nature of cD galaxies. Astrophysics, 2008;51(2):141-152).
