Galaxies within Clusters
•A range of structural types (Oemler 1974)
–cD clusters have 1 or 2 central dominant cD galaxies, and no more than about 20% spirals, with a E: S0: S ratio of 3: 4: 2.
–Spiral-rich clusters have E : S0 : S ratios more like 1: 2: 3 – about half spirals.
–Remainder are spiral-poor clusters.  No dominant cD galaxy and typical ratio of 1: 2: 1.
