Hierarchical assembly in action: a galaxy tail from a disrupting group in the Virgo cluster outskirts
J. Alfonso L. Aguerri, Stefano Zarattini, Virginia Cuomo +1
Group environments are thought to play a key role in shaping galaxy evolution prior to cluster accretion. However, direct observational evidence linking group--cluster interactions…
Why the Northern Hemisphere Needs a 30-40m Telescope and the Science at Stake: Ultra-Low-Mass Dwarf Galaxies Across the Boreal Cosmic Web
J. Alfonso L. Aguerri, Jesús Falcón-Barroso, María Argudo-Fernández +22
Dwarf galaxies dominate the galaxy population in the nearby Universe and occupy the regime where feedback, reionization, and environment exert their strongest influence on galaxy f…
Properties of Barred Galaxies with the Environment: II. The case of the Cosmic Web around the Virgo cluster
Virginia Cuomo, J. Alfonso L. Aguerri, Lorenzo Morelli +2
Context. Bars are elongated structures developed by a large fraction of disk galaxies in their central few kiloparsecs. However, the bar formation process is still not fully unders…
Properties of Barred Galaxies with the Environment: I. the case of the Virgo cluster
J. Alfonso L. Aguerri, Virginia Cuomo, Azahara Rojas-Roncero +1
Barred structures are widespread in a considerable fraction of galactic discs, spanning diverse environments and galaxy luminosities. The environment likely exerts a significant in…
