We investigate the evolution of superclusters and supercluster cocoons (basins of attraction), and the influence of cosmological parameters to the evolution. We perform numerical simulations of the evolution of the cosmic web for different cosmological models: the LCDM model with a conventional value of the dark energy (DE) density, the open model OCDM with no DE, the standard SCDM model with no DE, and the Hyper-DE HCDM model with an enhanced DE density value. We find ensembles of superclusters of these models for five evolutionary stages, corresponding to the present epoch z = 0, and to redshifts z = 1, 3, 10, 30. We use diameters of the largest superclusters and the number of superclusters as percolation functions to describe properties of the ensemble of superclusters in the cosmic web. We analyse the size and mass distribution of superclusters in models and in real Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) based samples. In all models numbers and volumes of supercluster cocoons are independent on cosmological epochs. Supercluster masses increase with time, and geometrical sizes in comoving coordinates decrease with time, for all models. LCDM, OCDM and HCDM models have almost similar percolation parameters. This suggests that the essential parameter, which defines the evolution of superclusters, is the matter density. The DE density influences the growth of the amplitude of density perturbations, and the growth of masses of superclusters, albeit significantly less strongly. The HCDM model has the largest speed of the growth of the amplitude of density fluctuations, and the largest growth of supercluster masses during the evolution. Geometrical diameters and numbers of HCDM superclusters at high threshold densities are larger than for LCDM and OCDM superclusters. SCDM model has about two times more superclusters than other models; SCDM superclusters have smaller diameters and masses.

The formation and evolution of the cosmic web in which galaxy superclusters are the largest relatively isolated objects is governed by a gravitational attraction of dark matter and antigravity of dark energy (cosmological constant). We study the char
acteristic density contrasts in the spherical collapse model for several epochs in the supercluster evolution and their dynamical state. We analysed the density contrasts for the turnaround, future collapse and zero gravity in different LCDM models and applied them to study the dynamical state of the supercluster A2142 with an almost spherical main body. The analysis of the supercluster A2142 shows that its high-density core has already started to collapse. The zero-gravity line outlines the outer region of the main body of the supercluster. In the course of future evolution the supercluster may split into several collapsing systems. The various density contrasts presented in our study and applied to the supercluster A2142 offer a promising way to characterise the dynamical state and expected future evolution of galaxy superclusters.
The largest galaxy systems in the cosmic web are superclusters, overdensity regions of galaxies, groups, clusters, and filaments. Low-density regions around superclusters are called basins of attraction or cocoons. In my talk I discuss the properties
of galaxies, groups, and filaments in the A2142 supercluster and its cocoon at redshift $z approx 0.09$. Cocoon boundaries are determined by the lowest density regions around the supercluster. We analyse the structure, dynamical state, connectivity, and galaxy content of the supercluster, and its high density core with the cluster A2142. We show that the main body of the supercluster is collapsing, and long filaments which surround the supercluster are detached from it. Galaxies with very old stellar populations lie not only in the central parts of clusters and groups in the supercluster, but also in the poorest groups in the cocoon.
We present a study of the Corona Borealis (CB) supercluster. We determined the high-density cores of the CB and the richest galaxy clusters in them, and studied their dynamical state and galaxy content. We determined filaments in the supercluster to
analyse the connectivity of clusters. We compared the mass distribution in the CB with predictions from the spherical collapse model and analysed the acceleration field in the CB. We found that at a radius $R_{mathrm{30}}$ around clusters in the CB (A2065, A2061, A2089, and Gr2064) (corresponding to the density contrast $Deltarho approx 30$), the galaxy distribution shows a minimum. The $R_{30}$ values for individual clusters lie in the range of $3 - 6$ $h^{-1}$ Mpc. The radii of the clusters (splashback radii) lie in the range of $R_{mathrm{cl}} approx 2 - 3$ $R_{mathrm{vir}}$. The projected phase space diagrams and the comparison with the spherical collapse model suggest that $R_{mathrm{30}}$ regions have passed turnaround and are collapsing. Galaxy content in clusters varies strongly. The cluster A2061 has the highest fraction of galaxies with old stellar populations, and A2065 has the highest fraction of galaxies with young stellar populations. The number of long filaments near clusters vary from one at A2089 to five at A2061. During the future evolution, the clusters in the main part of the CB may merge and form one of the largest bound systems in the nearby Universe. Another part of the CB, with the cluster Gr2064, will form a separate system. The structures with a current density contrast $Deltarho approx 30$ have passed turnaround and started to collapse at redshifts $z approx 0.3 - 0.4$. The comparison of the number and properties of the most massive collapsing supercluster cores from observations and simulations may serve as a test for cosmological models.
Aims. We investigate how properties of the ensemble of superclusters in the cosmic web evolve with time. Methods. We perform numerical simulations of the evolution of the cosmic web using the LambdaCDM model in box sizes L0 = 1024, 512, 256 Mpc/h. We
find supercluster ensembles of models for four evolutionary stages, corresponding to the present epoch z = 0, and to redshifts z = 1, z = 3, and z = 10. We calculate fitness diameters of superclusters defined from volumes of superclusters divided to filling factors of over-density regions. Geometrical and fitness diameters of largest superclusters, and the number of superclusters as functions of the threshold density are used as percolation functions to describe geometrical properties of the ensemble of superclusters in the cosmic web. We calculate distributions of geometrical and fitness diameters and luminosities of superclusters, and follow time evolution of percolation functions and supercluster distributions. We compare percolation functions and supercluster distributions of models and samples of galaxies of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Results. Our analysis shows that fitness diameters of superclusters have a minimum at certain threshold density. Fitness diameters around minima almost do not change with time in co-moving coordinates. Numbers of superclusters have maxima which are approximately constant for all evolutionary epochs. Geometrical diameters of superclusters decrease during the evolution of the cosmic web; luminosities of superclusters increase during the evolution. Conclusions. Our study suggests that evolutionary changes occur inside dynamical volumes of superclusters. The stability of fitness diameters and numbers of superclusters during the evolution is an important property of the cosmic web.
We present a large-scale galaxy structure Cl J021734-0513 at z~0.65 discovered in the UKIDSS UDS field, made of ~20 galaxy groups and clusters, spreading over 10 Mpc. We report on a VLT/VIMOS spectroscopic follow-up program that, combined with past s
pectroscopy, allowed us to confirm four galaxy clusters (M200 ~ 10^14 Msol) and a dozen associated groups and star-forming galaxy overdensities. Two additional filamentary structures at z ~ 0.62 and z ~ 0.69 and foreground and background clusters at 0.6 < z < 0.7 were also confirmed along the line-of-sight. The structure subcomponents are at different formation stages. The clusters have a core dominated by passive galaxies and an established red sequence. The remaining structures are a mix of star-forming galaxy overdensities and forming groups. The presence of quiescent galaxies in the core of the latter shows that `preprocessing has already happened before the groups fall into their more massive neighbours. Our spectroscopy allows us to derive spectral index measurements e.g. emission/absorption line equivalent widths, strength of the 4000A break, valuable to investigate the star formation history of structure members. Based on these line measurements, we select a population of `poststarburst galaxies. These galaxies are preferentially found within the virial radius of clusters, supporting a scenario in which their recent quenching could be prompted by gas stripping by the dense intracluster medium. We derive stellar age estimates using MCMC-based spectral fitting for quiescent galaxies and find a correlation between ages and colours/stellar masses which favours a top-down formation scenario of the red sequence. A catalogue of ~650 redshifts in UDS will be released alongside the paper.
