Galaxy Cluster Environments of Radio Sources

open access: yes, 2011
Using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the FIRST (Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty Centimeters) catalogs, we examined the optical environments around double-lobed radio sources. Previous studies have shown that multi-component radio sources

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.

Measuring Galaxy Environments with Deep Redshift Surveys

open access: yes, 2005
We study the applicability of several galaxy environment measures (n^th-nearest-neighbor distance, counts in an aperture, and Voronoi volume) within deep redshift surveys.

The Properties of Radio Galaxies and the Effect of Environment in Large Scale Structures at $z\sim1$ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this study we investigate 89 radio galaxies that are spectroscopically-confirmed to be members of five large scale structures in the redshift range of $0.65 \le z \le 0.96$. Based on a two-stage classification scheme, the radio galaxies are classified

The Environments of Markarian Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1990
The extensively studied Markarian sample of 1500 ultraviolet excess galaxies contains many Seyfert, starburst, and peculiar galaxies. Using the 20 minute V plates obtained for the construction of the Hubble Space Telescope Guide Star Catalog, we have investigated the morphologies of the Markarian galaxies and the environments in which they are located.

The Padova-Millennium Galaxy and Group Catalogue (PM2GC): the group-finding method and the PM2GC catalogues of group, binary and single field galaxies

open access: yes, 2011
We present the construction and describe the properties of the Padova-Millennium Galaxy and Group Catalogue (PM2GC), a galaxy catalogue representative of the general field population in the local Universe.

Merger relics of cluster galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Context. Sheen and collaborators recently found that a surprisingly large portion (38%) of massive early-type galaxies in heavy clusters show strong merger-related disturbed features.

The local environment of H II galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2000
We address the question of whether violent star formation in HII galaxies is induced by low mass companions by describing statistically their local environment as estimated by the correlation function. We argue that even if low mass companions were mainly intergalactic HI clouds, their optical counterparts should be detectable at faint limits of the ...

Nature versus Nurture: Revisiting the Environmental Impact on Star Formation Activities of Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a systematic study of the environmental impact on star formation activities of galaxies using a mass-complete sample of ∼170k galaxies at z < 4 from the latest COSMOS2020 catalog.

VERTICO and IllustrisTNG: The Spatially Resolved Effects of Environment on Galactic Gas

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
It has been shown in previous publications that the TNG100 simulation quantitatively reproduces the observed reduction in each of the total atomic and total molecular hydrogen gas for galaxies within massive halos, i.e., dense environments.
