“…Studies at high redshift (Fadda et al 2008;Geach et al 2011;Coppin et al 2012;Darvish et al 2014) as well as z ∼ 0 (e.g. Porter et al 2008;Mahajan, Haines, & Raychaudhury 2010;Haines et al 2011;Alpaslan et al 2016;Kim et al 2016;Kleiner et al 2017;Kuutma, Tamm, & Tempel 2017;Kraljic et al 2018) have now shown that the intermediate density environment prevalent in filaments not just bridge the gap between the dense interior of clusters and 'voids' devoid of galaxies, but play a rather important role in modulating galaxy observables. Owing to the highly coherent flow of galaxies along the filaments (González & Padilla 2009), they have not just been observed at all wavelengths ⋆ E-mail: smritimahajan@iisermohali.ac.in from ultraviolet (UV) (Gallazzi et al 2009;Geach et al 2011;Coppin et al 2012) to infrared (Fadda et al 2008;Haines, Gargiulo, & Merluzzi 2008) by direct methods such as quantifying the distribution of galaxies, thermal Sunyaev-Ze'ldovich (tSZ) effect (Bonjean et al 2018) and weak gravitational lensing (Dietrich et al 2012;Jauzac et al 2012), but also indirectly using a bent double lobe radio source (Edwards, Fadda, & Frayer 2010b).…”
