An extreme ram-pressure stripping event in a protocluster at redshift 4.3
Dazhi Zhou, Scott C. Chapman, Manuel Aravena +16
In the nearby Universe, the environment plays a crucial role in suppressing star formation in dense regions. In particular, ram-pressure stripping (RPS) is a major mechanism for re…
Discovery of a nearby radio relic in the low-mass, merging cluster Abell 4067
Isaac Magolego, Roger P. Deane, Kshitij Thorat +9
Shock waves generated during cluster mergers offer a powerful probe of how large-scale structure grows and evolves in the Universe. As part of the MeerKAT-South Pole Telescope (SPT…
A census of star-formation and gas mass tracers in two lensed dusty star-forming galaxies
David Vizgan, Joaquin D. Vieira, Justin S. Spilker +20
We present new and archival Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of two strongly lensed dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFGs) selected from the South Pole…
An Overabundance of Radio-AGN in the SPT2349-56 Protocluster: Preheating the Intra-Cluster Medium
Scott C. Chapman, Roger P. Deane, Dazhi Zhou +22
Following the detection of a radio-loud Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) in the z=4.3 protocluster SPT2349-56, we have obtained additional observations with MeerKAT in S-band (2.4 GHz…
Bright [CII]158m Streamers as a Beacon for Giant Galaxy Formation in SPT234956 at
Nikolaus Sulzenauer, Axel WeiÃ, Ryley Hill +17
Observations of extreme starbursts, often located in the cores of protoclusters, challenge the classical bottom-up galaxy formation paradigm. Giant elliptical galaxies at mus…
A large thermal energy reservoir in the nascent intracluster medium at a redshift of 4.3
Dazhi Zhou, Scott Chapman, Manuel Aravena +21
Most baryons in present-day galaxy clusters exist as hot gas (), forming the intracluster medium (ICM). Cosmological simulations predict th…
