Galaxy Evolution in Compact Groups. III. Structural Analysis of Galaxies and Dynamical State of Non-isolated Compact Groups

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Compact groups (CGs) of galaxies are dense systems where projected separations are comparable to their optical diameters. A subset—non-isolated CGs—are embedded within major structures. Using multiband S-PLUS data, we analyse galaxies in 122 non-isolated

Environments around Quasars at z ∼ 3 Revealed by Wide-field Imaging with Subaru HSC and CFHT

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We examine the local density environments around 67 quasars at z ∼ 3 by combining the imaging data of Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program and Canada–France–Hawaii Telescope Large Area U -band Deep Survey over about 20 deg ^2 .

On the filamentary environment of galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2010
The correlation between the large-scale distribution of galaxies and their spectroscopic properties at z=1.5 is investigated using the Horizon MareNostrum cosmological run. We have extracted a large sample of 10^5 galaxies from this large hydrodynamical simulation featuring standard galaxy formation physics.

Early Results from the Coma Legacy IFU Survey (CLIFS): Ram Pressure Induced Shocks and Ionization in Jellyfish Tails

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Jellyfish galaxies, which exhibit tails of gas opposite to their direction of motion, are a galaxy population showcasing the most extreme effects of ram pressure stripping (RPS).

Tidal Grinding of Dwarf Galaxies in Cluster Environments

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Dwarf elliptical galaxies (dEs) dominate galaxy clusters and provide key constraints on environmentally driven galaxy evolution. Here we examine whether the projected shapes of dEs retain information about their accretion and transformation histories ...

Different Origins of Nucleated and Nonnucleated Dwarf Elliptical Galaxies: Identified by Deep Learning

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Dwarf elliptical galaxies (dEs) are the dominant population in galaxy clusters and serve as ideal probes for studying the environmental impact on galactic evolution.

Properties of barred galaxies with the environment

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Bars are elongated structures developed by a large fraction of disk galaxies in their central few kiloparsecs. However, the bar formation process is still not fully understood, particularly the role played by the galaxy environment in the ...

No Evidence of Asymmetrically Enhanced Star Formation in Infalling Galaxies in UNIONS

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Ram pressure stripping is a well-known environmental quenching mechanism that removes gas from galaxies infalling into groups and clusters. In some extreme examples of ram pressure stripping, galaxies with extended gas tails show evidence of enhanced ...
