Dwarf Galaxies and Cluster Environments

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2018
AbstractWe report an investigation of the properties of dwarf galaxies (Mr < -15) inside 26 clusters at z = 0.15 – 0.25, using the X-ray data from the Chandra archive, and optical images taken with Subaru Suprime-Cam. Our results include: 1. Investigation of the dwarf galaxy density distribution is sensitive to the background galaxies and the choice

COSMOS2020: Discovery of a Protocluster of Massive Quiescent Galaxies at z = 2.77

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Protoclusters of galaxies have been found in the last quarter-century. However, most of them have been found through the overdensity of star-forming galaxies, and there have been no known structures identified by more than two spectroscopically confirmed

Pre-Processing and Post-Processing in Group-Cluster Mergers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Galaxies in clusters are more likely to be of early type and to have lower star formation rates than galaxies in the field. Recent observations and simulations suggest that cluster galaxies may be `pre-processed' by group or filament environments and ...

The environment of HII galaxies revisited [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2013
We present a study of the close (< 200 kpc) environment of 110 relatively local (z< 0.16) HII galaxies, selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS; DR7). We use available spectroscopic and photometric redshifts in order to investigate the presence of a close and possibly interacting companion galaxy.

Gas-phase Metallicity of Local Active Galactic Nuclei in the GASP and MaNGA Surveys: The Role of Ram Pressure Stripping

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Growing evidence in support of a connection between active galactic nuclei (AGN) activity and the ram pressure stripping (RPS) phenomenon has been found both observationally and theoretically in the past decades.

Tailed radio galaxies as tracers of galaxy clusters. Serendipitous discoveries with the GMRT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We report on the discovery of four new radio galaxies with tailed morphology. Tailed radio galaxies are generally found in rich environments, therefore their presence can be used as tracer of a cluster.

Harassment Origin for Kinematic Substructures in Dwarf Elliptical Galaxies? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We have run high resolution N-body models simulating the encounter of a dwarf galaxy with a bright elliptical galaxy. The dwarf absorbs orbital angular momentum and shows counter-rotating features in the external regions of the galaxy.

VERTICO. VII. Environmental Quenching Caused by the Suppression of Molecular Gas Content and Star Formation Efficiency in Virgo Cluster Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We study how environment regulates the star formation cycle of 33 Virgo Cluster satellite galaxies on 720 pc scales. We present the resolved star-forming main sequence for cluster galaxies, dividing the sample based on their global H i properties and ...

Reconstructing the galaxy density field with photometric redshifts: II. Environment-dependent galaxy evolution since $z \simeq 3$ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Although extensively investigated, the role of the environment in galaxy formation is still not well understood. In this context, the Galaxy Stellar Mass Function (GSMF) is a powerful tool to understand how environment relates to galaxy mass assembly and
