The galaxy-halo connection and the dynamical evolution of a giant disc in a massive node of the Cosmic Web at z~3
G. Quadri, S. Cantalupo, C. Bacchini +9
Recent JWST observations revealed the surprising presence of a giant and massive disc galaxy in a Cosmic Web node at z. This galaxy, named the Big Wheel, has a size almost t…
Revealing the nature of the starburst galaxies in the overdensity HATLAS J0849
Melanie Kaasinen, Francesca Rizzo, Francesco Valentino +4
Today's most massive ellipticals are proposed to originate from starbursting galaxies in overdensities. To discern what triggers these starbursts, and their desce…
Molecular gas and star formation in GASP jellyfish galaxies
A. Moretti, R. Paladino, C. Bacchini +13
Several studies have reported a nearly linear correlation between the molecular gas and star formation rate surface density, the so-called Kennicutt-Schmidt (KS) law. We aim to ret…
The supersonic nature of jellyfish galaxies
Alessandro Ignesti, Francesca Loi, Antonino Marasco +20
All gas-rich galaxies in cluster environments are expected to experience ram-pressure stripping from the intra-cluster medium. However, only a fraction of these develop ongoing sta…
ALMA survey of a massive node of the Cosmic Web at . II. A dynamically cold and massive disk galaxy in the proximity of a hyperluminous quasar
A. Pensabene, S. Cantalupo, W. Wang +11
Advancing our understanding of the formation and evolution of early massive galaxies and black holes requires detailed studies of dense structures in the high-redshift Universe. In…
The MUSE view of ram pressure stripped galaxies in clusters: the GASP sample
Bianca M. Poggianti, Benedetta Vulcani, Neven Tomicic +14
We present the full sample of 76 galaxies in 39 galaxy cluster fields at z=0.04-0.07 observed with VLT/MUSE by the GASP survey. Most of them (64) were observed as possible ram pres…
