AbstractWe studied ~ 2 deg2 region in the Shapley Supercluster (SSC) core at z~0.05 in two bands (B and R). By studying the galaxy luminosity function (LF) and the colour distribution of galaxies we find that processes directly related to the supercluster environment are responsible for transforming faint galaxies, rather than galaxy merging.
