cluster

More generally, the word cluster can refer to any collection of things positioned closely together. These things can be tangible, as in There is a cluster of people around the gate, or intangible, as in data cluster or Epidemiologists are tracking multiple outbreak clusters. 

A very general synonym is group (or, perhaps more precisely, grouping). The word clutch can also refer to a group or bunch of things.

Cluster can also be used as a verb meaning to form into such a group. Synonyms are assemble, gather, and the verb sense of group.
