Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
We investigated the optical properties of 7 clusters of galaxies observed in three colors over the range of absolute magnitudes -24 ≤ M ≤ -12. Our aim is to estimate the Luminosity Function and the total cluster luminosity of our sample in order to have information about the formation and the evolution of galaxies in clusters. In this paper, we present the main points of our analysis and give the formal parameters obtained by fitting the data using the maximum likelihood algorithm. We find consistency between our results and other works in literature confirming the bimodal nature of the luminosity function of cluster galaxies. More important, we find that the relation L /L versus L is color dependent: Low X ray Luminosity clusters have a bluer galaxy population.
