With arms wide open: a VLT/MUSE view of the mechanisms driving unwinding spiral arms in cluster galaxies

Augusto E. Lassen, Benedetta Vulcani, Jacopo Fritz +13

The environmental mechanisms driving unwinding spiral arms in cluster galaxies remain debated. While earlier studies attributed it mainly to gravitational interactions, recent work…

Great Balls of Fire: Star Formation in Gas Clouds Accelerated by a Hot Wind

Stephanie Tonnesen, Rory Smith, Bianca Poggianti +6

Satellite galaxies undergo ram pressure stripping, in which their gas is directly removed by a hydrodynamical interaction with the surrounding host halo gas. In clusters, ram press…

What goes around comes around: the fate of stars in stripped tails of gas

Nina Akerman, Stephanie Tonnesen, Bianca M. Poggianti +5

We conduct high-resolution wind-tunnel simulations to study in-situ star formation in the stripped tails of two massive () galaxies undergoing time-ev…

Stripped and Enriched: The Role of Ram-Pressure in Shaping Chemical Enrichment of Galaxies at Intermediate Redshift

Amir H. Khoram, Bianca Poggianti, Alessia Moretti +11

The chemical evolution of galaxies is shaped by their star formation histories and the exchange of gas with their environments. Metallicity provides key insights into these process…

Clump formation in ram-pressure stripped galaxies: evidence from mass function

Eric Giunchi, Claudia Scarlata, Ariel Werle +8

The mass function (MF) of young ( Myr) stellar clumps is an indicator of the mechanism driving the collapse of the interstellar medium (ISM) into giant mo…

Investigating the intracluster medium viscosity using the tails of GASP jellyfish galaxies

Alessandro Ignesti, Gianfranco Brunetti, Marco Gullieuszik +13

The microphysics of the intracluster medium (ICM) in galaxy clusters is still poorly understood. Observational evidence suggests that the effective viscosity is suppressed by plasm…

The history of star-forming regions in the tails of 6 GASP jellyfish galaxies observed with the Hubble Space Telescope

A. Werle, E. Giunchi, B. Poggianti +12

Using images collected with the WFC3 camera on board of the Hubble Space Telescope, we detect stellar clumps in continuum-subtracted and ultraviolet (F275W filter), such clump…

Morphology of star-forming clumps in ram-pressure stripped galaxies as seen by HST

Giunchi, E, Poggianti +18

We characterize the morphological properties of a statistically relevant sample of H and UV young star-forming clumps and optical complexes, observed with the \textit{Hubble Spa…

Radio continuum tails in ram pressure-stripped spiral galaxies: experimenting with a semi-empirical model in Abell 2255

A. Ignesti, B. Vulcani, A. Botteon +7

Wide-field radio continuum observations of galaxy clusters are revealing an increasing number of spiral galaxies hosting tens of kpc-long radio tails produced by the nonthermal int…

HST imaging of star-forming clumps in 6 GASP ram-pressure stripped galaxies

Eric Giunchi, Marco Gullieuszik, Bianca M. Poggianti +6

Exploiting broad- and narrow-band images of the Hubble Space Telescope from the near-UV to I-band rest frame, we study the star-forming clumps of six galaxies of the GASP sample un…

UV and H HST observations of 6 GASP jellyfish galaxies

Marco Gullieuszik, Eric Giunchi, Bianca M. Poggianti +17

Star-forming, H-emitting clumps are found embedded in the gaseous tails of galaxies undergoing intense ram-pressure stripping in galaxy clusters, so-called jellyfish galaxies. T…
