TRGB Distances to Galaxies in Front of the Virgo Cluster [PDF]
Tip of the red giant branch distances are acquired from Hubble Space Telescope images for 16 galaxies to the foreground of the Virgo Cluster. The new distances with 5% accuracy, combined with archival measurements, tightly constrain the near-side ...

Dynamics of the Globular Cluster System Associated with M87 (NGC 4486). II. Analysis [PDF]
We present a dynamical analysis of the globular cluster system associated with M87 (= NGC 4486), the cD galaxy near the dynamical center of the Virgo cluster.

THE BURRELL SCHMIDT DEEP VIRGO SURVEY: TIDAL DEBRIS, GALAXY HALOS, AND DIFFUSE INTRACLUSTER LIGHT IN THE VIRGO CLUSTER [PDF]
We present the results of a deep imaging survey of the Virgo cluster of galaxies, concentrated around the cores of Virgo subclusters A and B. The goal of this survey was to detect and study very low surface brightness features present in Virgo, including

The Active Assembly of the Virgo Cluster: Indications for Recent Group Infall From Early-type Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]
Virgo is a dynamically young galaxy cluster with substructure in its spatial and kinematic distribution. Here we simultaneously study the phase-space distribution and the main characteristics of Virgo’s galaxies, particularly its most abundant galaxy ...

Galaxy Evolution in the Virgo Cluster [PDF]
AbstractIn the last years we have gained new insights on how ram pressure acts in detail on Virgo spiral galaxies. This has been possible due to the combination of new deep HIobservations, deep polarized radio continuum observations, and detailed dynamical modelling (sticky particles and MHD).

THE NEXT GENERATION VIRGO CLUSTER SURVEY. IV. NGC 4216: A BOMBARDED SPIRAL IN THE VIRGO CLUSTER [PDF]
We present an investigation into the origins of a series of interlaced narrow filamentary stellar structures, loops and plumes in the vicinity of the Virgo Cluster, edge-on spiral galaxy, NGC 4216 that were previously identified by the Blackbird Telescope. Using the deeper, higher-resolution and precisely calibrated optical CFHT/MegaCam images obtained

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

Massive Star Formation Rates and Radial Distributions from Halpha Imaging of 84 Virgo Cluster and Isolated Spiral Galaxies [PDF]
The massive star formation properties of 55 Virgo Cluster and 29 isolated S0-Scd bright (M(B) < -18) spiral galaxies are compared via analyses of R and Halpha surface photometry and integrated fluxes as functions of Hubble type and central R light ...

The effect of ram pressure on the molecular gas of galaxies: three case studies in the Virgo cluster [PDF]
We present 12CO (2-1) data of three Virgo spirals - NGC 4330, NGC 4402 and NGC 4522 obtained using the Submillimeter Array. These three galaxies show clear evidence of ram pressure stripping due to the cluster medium as found in previous HI imaging ...

Radio continuum spectra of galaxies in the Virgo cluster region [PDF]
New radio continuum observations of galaxies in the Virgo cluster region at 4.85, 8.6, and 10.55 GHz are presented. These observations are combined with existing measurements at 1.4 and 0.325 GHz.
