Environmental Dependence of the Mass–Metallicity Relation in Cosmological Hydrodynamical Simulations
We investigate the environmental dependence of the gas-phase metallicity for galaxies at z = 0 to z ≳ 2 and the underlying physical mechanisms driving this dependence using state-of-the-art cosmological hydrodynamical simulations.

Galaxy groups can be characterized by the radius of decoupling from cosmic expansion, the radius of the caustic of second turnaround, and the velocity dispersion of galaxies within this latter radius. These parameters can be a challenge to measure, especially for small groups with few members.

Galaxy groups are more than an intermediate scale between clusters and halos hosting individual galaxies, they are crucial laboratories capable of testing a range of astrophysics from how galaxies form and evolve to large scale structure (LSS) statistics

The galaxy environment in GAMA G3C groups using the Kilo Degree Survey Data Release 3 [PDF]
We aim to investigate the galaxy environment in GAMA Galaxy Groups Catalogue (G3C) using a volume-limited galaxy sample from the Kilo Degree Survey Data Release 3.

Compact Groups Of Galaxies [PDF]
This paper reviews some of the outstanding questions concerning compact groups of galaxies. These relate to the physical nature and dynamical status of the groups, their formation and evolution, and their role in galaxy evolution. The picture that emerges is that compact groups are generally physically dense systems, although often contaminated by ...

The DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey: The Voronoi-Delaunay Method Catalog of Galaxy Groups [PDF]
We present a public catalog of galaxy groups constructed from the spectroscopic sample of galaxies in the fourth data release from the Deep Extragalactic Evolutionary Probe 2 (DEEP2) Galaxy Redshift Survey, including the Extended Groth Strip (EGS).

I would like to report on some work that Ed Turner and I have done on groups of galaxies and how groups may be used to obtain useful cosmological information. Of course the classic study of groups of galaxies was done by de Vaucouleurs (1975) who made a catalogue of groups and loose associations of galaxies in the local supercluster. Partly to obtain a

The shape of groups of galaxies has been since now a disregarded topic in the literature, mainly due to the fact that individual ellipticity estimates of poor systems are strongly biased toward higher values. Such a bias turns out to depend on both the ellipticity itself and on the richness of the group. In this paper we have devised a modified version

The influence of halo assembly on galaxies and galaxy groups [PDF]
In this paper, we study the variations of group galaxy properties according to the assembly history in SDSS-DR6 selected groups. Using mock SDSS group catalogues, we find two suitable indicators of group formation time: i) the isolation of the group, defined as the distance to the nearest neighbor in terms of its virial radius, and ii) the ...
