Resumen:
The accurate classification of the environments where the galaxies belong becomes a key point in order to understand its role in galaxy evolution. Several efforts have been made to classify galaxies as probable cluster/group members, mainly by friends-of-friends methods, but the limitations of observational astronomy might result in false positives and/or lost members. The aim of this ongoing project is to take advantage of a large sample of galaxy halos extracted from a high resolution cosmological dark matter simulation to reproduce the data available for observational surveys and test the methods described in literature.
