cds-question@unistra.frgalaxy-clustersgalaxiesphotometryredshiftedWe investigate the incidence of major mergers creating massive (M_star_>10^11^M_{sun}_) galaxies in present-day (z<=0.12) groups and clusters. Using a volume-limited sample of 845 groups with dark matter halo masses above 2.5x10^13^M_{sun}_, we isolate 221 galaxy pairs with <=1.5 r-band magnitude differences, <=30kpc projected separations and combined masses above 10^11^M_{sun}_. We fit the r-band images of each pair as the line-of-sight projection of symmetric models and identify 38 mergers by the presence of residual asymmetric structure associated with both progenitors, such as non-concentric isophotes, broad and diffuse tidal tails and dynamical friction wakes.2008MNRAS.388.1537Mhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/MNRAS/388/1537CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-tohttp://www.sdss.org : SDSS Home Pagehttp://sdss.physics.nyu.edu/vagc : NYU-VAGC Home Pagehttps://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/388/1537https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/388/1537http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/388/1537https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/388/1537https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/388/1537http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/388/1537GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/MNRAS/388/1537/mergers (Progenitors of massive merger systems)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/388/1537/mergers?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/388/1537/mergers?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/388/1537/mergers?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true213.6358331.7315560.0055555555555555566/6140 6527 7207 7315 8208 9507 9883 10095 11231 11358 11498 11814 11884 17303 17574 18581 18583 20035 21847 25822 25852 25915 25981 25988 26051 26264 26354 27045 27048 27245 27247 27257 27324 27416 27420 31395 31401 49122https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/MNRAS/388/1537?format=asciiOpticaldefaultJ/MNRAS/388/1537/mergersProgenitors of massive merger systemsrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
