Hector Galaxy Survey: Falling in Between - Infalling Galaxies in the Midst of the Abell 3667 Merger
Oğuzhan Çakır, Matt Owers, Gabriella Quattropani +38
Whether cluster mergers enhance ram pressure stripping (RPS) and accelerate member galaxy evolution remains an open question. Here, we investigate galaxy populations in the nearby…
Hector Galaxy Survey: Optical IFU and Chandra Reveal a Low-Luminosity AGN Behind Extended LINER Emission
Kyuseok Oh, Gabriella Quattropani, Pratyush Kumar Das +25
We present evidence that the Hector Galaxy Survey galaxy C901005481609968 (), which exhibits spatially extended LINER-like emission in optical integral-field spe…
Hector Galaxy Survey: Linking the low- and high-mass ends of the initial mass function in star-forming galaxies
Diego Salvador, Andrew Hopkins, Matt Owers +30
The stellar initial mass function (IMF) is a fundamental ingredient in galaxy evolution, linking observed integrated light to galaxy properties. Constraining the full IMF shape bey…
MAUVE-MUSE: When Metallicity Follows or Fights Star Formation -- A Mass-Dependent Inversion in Virgo Galaxies
Rongjun Huang, Luca Cortese, Barbara Catinella +11
Although globally-integrated studies often find that, at fixed stellar mass, high star formation rate (SFR) galaxies are relatively metal-poor while lower-SFR systems are more meta…
Large-scale and local environmental drivers of quenching: tracing H concentration in X-ray and optical galaxy groups
Stefania Barsanti, Di Wang, Matthew Colless +11
To explore the environmental mechanisms causing quenching in nearby star-forming galaxies, we study the variation with local and large-scale environments of a star formation concen…
MAUVE-MUSE: Ionization and Kinematic Signatures of Environmental Effects on Virgo Cluster Disks
Toby Brown, Luca Cortese, Barbara Catinella +18
We present early science results from the MAUVE (Multiphase Astrophysics to Unveil the Virgo Environment) program which targets 40 Virgo Cluster galaxies to investigate the effect…
