Abstract: | This paper briefly presents a numerical code which simulates the evolution of galaxies belonging to rich clusters. The evolutionary model considers both, cluster dynamics and galaxy photometry, taking into account the galaxy-cluster interactions (collisional stripping, merging and ram-pressure stripping by the ICM) and the intrinsic galaxy evolution. We use different initial mass distributions for galaxies and we briefly discuss the influence of the initial segregation in mass on the evolution of the photometrical properties.Paper presented at the 11th European Regional Astronomical Meetings of the IAU on New Windows to the Universe, held 3–8 July, 1989, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain. |
