Dynamical models of cluster members to probe the total mass properties of cluster subhalos. I. A comparison with parametric strong lensing models
Nicola Bianchetti, Claudio Grillo, Giovanni Granata +6
In this series of papers, we present dynamical models of cluster members in strong lensing (SL) galaxy clusters to independently probe the persistent discrepancy reported between S…
A Cosmic Archipelago of lensed metal-poor galaxies at
A. Bolamperti, M. Messa, A. Zanella +21
The Cosmic Archipelago is an ensemble of galaxies, strongly lensed by the cluster MACSJ0416, showing extreme physical properties at . We combine JWST/NIRCam with deep VL…
The velocity dispersion function of red galaxies in four Hubble Frontier Fields galaxy clusters
G. Granata, L. Tortorelli, C. Grillo +6
We present a detailed study of the stellar kinematic properties of red member galaxies in the cores of four strong lensing galaxy clusters at intermediate redshifts included in the…
A New Perspective on Galactic Evolution: Studying the Outskirts of the Abell S1063 Galaxy Cluster
L. Pecoraro, A. Mercurio, M. Annunziatella +14
Galaxy physical properties are influenced by their environments, but the processes responsible for mass and environmental quenching and structural transformations remain debated. G…
VST-SMASH: VST Survey of Mass Assembly and Structural Hierarchy I. Survey presentation and deep photometry of IC 5332: tracing the mass assembly in the challenging faintest-end regime
R. Ragusa, C. Tortora, L. Hunt +9
Understanding the formation and evolution of late type galaxies (LTG) requires deep imaging for tracing the faintest stellar components in their outskirts. Despite their crucial ro…
CLASH-VLT velocity anisotropy profiles in a stack of massive galaxy clusters
E. Maraboli, A. Biviano, C. Grillo +4
We measure the velocity anisotropy profile of different galaxy cluster member populations by analysing the stacked projected phase space of nine massive ($M_\mathrm{200c}>7…
