Photometric Determination of R_200 for SDSS Galaxy Clusters
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the empirical size-richness relation for a large sample of galaxy clusters and determined the radius at which the cluster galaxy density is 200Ω m times the mean galaxy density, without assuming a model for the radial distribution of galaxies in clusters.
