Evolution of galaxies in clusters
B. M. Poggianti
I summarize what is know about the evolution of galaxies in clusters from the observational point of view presenting results at high (z~1), intermediate (z~0.5) and low (z~0) redsh…
Stellar Populations, Butcher-Oemler Effect, Star Formation in Clusters
Bianca M. Poggianti
In this brief overview of the stellar populations of galaxies in clusters I highlight some of the most recent results, including the downsizing of the k+a population and the star f…
The relation between galactic properties and cluster structure
Bianca M. Poggianti, Terry J. Bridges, M. Yagi +5
A satisfactory understanding of the origin of the dependence of galaxy properties on their environment has remained, so far, out of reach. In the light of numerous observational re…
Two formation paths for cluster dwarf galaxies?
Bianca M. Poggianti, Nobunari Kashikawa, Terry Bridges +5
A surprising result of our recent spectroscopic survey of galaxies in the Coma cluster has been the discovery of a possible bimodal distribution in the metallicities of faint galax…
Modeling stellar populations in cluster galaxies
Bianca M. Poggianti
In this review I highlight the role played by spectrophotometric models in the study of galaxy evolution in distant clusters. I summarize the main achievements of the modeling of k…
The WINGS Survey: a progress report
G. Fasano, B. Poggianti, D. Bettoni +7
A two-band (B and V) wide-field imaging survey of a complete, all-sky X-ray selected sample of 78 clusters in the redshift range z=0.04-0.07 is presented. The aim of this survey is…
