Constraining the duration of ram pressure stripping features in the optical from the direction of jellyfish galaxy tails
Vicente Salinas, Yara L. Jaffé, Rory Smith +12
Ram pressure stripping is perhaps the most efficient mechanism for removing gas and quenching galaxies in dense environments as they move through the intergalactic medium. Extreme…
BCG alignment with the Locations of Cluster Members and the Large Scale Structure out to 10 R
Rory Smith, Ho Seong Hwang, Katarina Kraljic +8
Using a sample of clusters, each with typically spectroscopically confirmed cluster members, we search for a signal of alignment between the Position Angle (PA) of…
The First Fall is the Hardest: The Importance of Peculiar Galaxy Dynamics at Infall Time for Tidal Stripping Acting at the Centers of Groups and Clusters
Rory Smith, Paula Calderon-Castillo, Jihye Shin +2
Using dark matter only N-body cosmological simulations, we measure the pericentre distance of dark matter halos on their first infall into group and cluster halos. We find that the…
A New Method to Constrain the Appearance and Disappearance of Observed Jellyfish Galaxy Tails
Rory Smith, Jong-Ho Shinn, Stephanie Tonnesen +11
We present a new approach to observationally constrain where the tails of Jellyfish (JF) galaxies in groups and clusters first appear and how long they remain visible with respect…
