Cosmic web stripping and starvation of low-mass filament galaxies in TNG50
Daria Zakharova, Gabriella De Lucia, Benedetta Vulcani +3
Galaxy properties are known to correlate with their location within the cosmic web. However, the role of filaments remains poorly understood, particularly for low-mass galaxies, wh…
Virgo Filaments VI: H clumps in the filaments around the Virgo galaxy cluster
G. Nagaraj, P. Jablonka, R. A. Finn +9
It is still not clear which environmental processes operate in filaments. Given the ubiquity of filaments and their importance in feeding clusters, a proper understanding of these…
Mechanisms Affecting Galaxies Nearby and Environmental Trends (MAGNET)
Benedetta Vulcani, Gabriella De Lucia, Daria Zakharova +28
[ABRIDGED] Galaxy evolution is shaped by internal and external mechanisms that regulate the baryon cycle and star formation activity. We present a theoretical framework based on th…
Environmental history of filament galaxies: stellar mass assembly and star-formation of filament galaxies
D. Zakharova, G. De Lucia, B. Vulcani +2
Galaxy properties correlate with their position within the cosmic web. While galaxies are observed in an environment today, they may have experienced different environments in the…
Virgo Filaments V: Disrupting the Baryon Cycle in the NGC 5364 Galaxy Group
Rose A. Finn, Gregory Rudnick, Pascale Jablonka +20
The Virgo Filament Survey (VFS) is a comprehensive study of galaxies that reside in the extended filamentary structures surrounding the Virgo Cluster, out to 12 virial radii. The p…
Virgo Filaments IV: Using WISE to Measure the Modification of Star-Forming Disks in the Extended Regions Around the Virgo Cluster
Kim Conger, Gregory Rudnick, Rose A. Finn +14
Recent theoretical work and targeted observational studies suggest that filaments are sites of galaxy preprocessing. The aim of the WISESize project is to directly probe galaxies o…
