  12. Galaxy LF for the Shapley core to ~M*+ 6 • Best described by combination of Gaussian + Schechter functions to model giant and dwarf pop. • Dip at Mr~ -19 (R~17.7) as rich low z clusters: separation 2 pop. Mercurio et al. 2006

  13. The Shapley Supercluster is NOT the temple of the celestial harmony.

  14. Principal Abell clusters in the center of the Shapley Supercluster
