Resumen:
By the use of a semi-analytic model of galaxy formation (Lagos, Cora &Padilla 2008), we investigate the colour-magnitude diagram of clusters galaxies, in particular, we study the development of the colour-magnitude relation (CMR). We find a break in the bright end of the CMR, from the linear fit followed by less luminous galaxies in the relation. This effect could be drawn by poor gas minor mergers events at low redshifts.
