The Colours of Satellite Galaxies in Groups and Clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Current models of galaxy formation predict satellite galaxies in groups and clusters that are redder than observed. We investigate the effect on the colours of satellite galaxies produced by the ram pressure stripping of their hot gaseous atmospheres as the satellites orbit within their parent halo. We incorporate a model of the stripping process based

Active Galactic Nucleus Properties of ∼1 Million Member Galaxies of Galaxy Groups and Clusters at z < 1.4 Based on the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Herein, we present the statistical properties of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) for approximately 1 million member galaxies of galaxy groups and clusters with 0.1 < cluster redshift ( z _cl ) < 1.4 selected using the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam, the so ...

Galaxy groups in the presence of cosmological constant: Increasing the masses of groups

open access: yesPhysics Letters B
The boundaries of galaxy groups and clusters are defined by the interplay between the Newtonian attractive force and the decoupling from the local expansion of the Universe.

Details of the Spatial Structure and Kinematics of the Castor and Ursa Major Streams

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2015
A list of the Castor stream members is compiled based on the data from various authors. The membership probabilities for some stars are revised based on the individual apex, multiplicity, observational errors, and peculiarity.

Galaxy Superclusters and Their Complexes in the Cosmic Web

open access: yesUniverse
The richest and largest structures in the cosmic web are galaxy superclusters, their complexes (associations of several almost connected very rich superclusters), and planes.

The evolution of the star formation activity per halo mass up to redshift ~1.6 as seen by Herschel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Aims. Star formation in massive galaxies is quenched at some point during hierarchical mass assembly. To understand where and when the quenching processes takes place, we study the evolution of the total star formation rate per unit total halo mass (Σ ...

Constraining Galaxy Formation Models with Dwarf Ellipticals in Clusters

open access: yes, 2005
Recent observations demonstrate that dwarf elliptical (dE) galaxies in clusters, despite their faintness, are likely a critical galaxy type for understanding the processes behind galaxy formation.

Hot Gas in Galaxy Groups: Recent Observations

open access: yes, 2012
Galaxy groups are the least massive systems where the bulk of baryons begin to be accounted for. Not simply the scaled-down versions of rich clusters following self-similar relations, galaxy groups are ideal systems to study baryon physics, which is ...

Group-Cluster Merging and the Formation of Starburst Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1999
A significant fraction of clusters of galaxies are observed to have substructure, which implies that merging between clusters and subclusters is a rather common physical process of cluster formation. It still remains unclear how cluster merging affects the evolution of cluster member galaxies.

Tracing Early Cosmic Chemical Enrichment: A Uniform XMM-Newton Survey of Metallicity in Galaxy Groups and Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Observed metal abundances in the intracluster medium (ICM) of galaxy groups and clusters, Z _ICM , exceed what is expected from present-day stellar populations alone.
