Targeting cluster galaxies for the 4MOST CHANCES Low-z sub-survey with photometric redshifts

Hugo Méndez-Hernández, Ciria Lima-Dias, Antonela Monachesi +54

The evolution of galaxies is shaped by both internal processes and their external environments. Galaxy clusters and their surroundings provide ideal laboratories to study these eff…
