Abstract
We present two projects related to interaction in the Virgo cluster. In the first section we draw a quantitative comparison of the distribution of the galaxies and the intra-cluster gas taking into account that the Virgo cluster has an irregular structure consisting of several subclusters. In the second section we show hydrodynamic simulations of the interaction (ram pressure stripping) of a galaxy like M86 with the intra-cluster gas.
