The richest clusters in the Coma and Leo superclusters: Properties and evolution

Maret Einasto, Peeter Tenjes, Rain Kipper +6

We study the substructure, connectivity, and galaxy content of galaxy clusters A1656 and 1367 in the Coma supercluster and of A1185 in the Leo supercluster with the aim of understa…

Superbubbles as the source of dynamical friction: gas migration, stellar and dark matter contributions

Rain Kipper, Indrek Vurm, Aikaterini Niovi Triantafyllaki +2

[Abridged] The gas distribution in galaxies is smooth on large scales, but is usually time-dependent and inhomogeneous on smaller scales. The time-dependence originates from proces…

Galaxy groups and clusters and their brightest galaxies within the cosmic web

Maret Einasto, Jaan Einasto, Peeter Tenjes +5

Our aim is to combine data on single galaxies, galaxy groups, their BGGs, and their location in the cosmic web, to determine classes of groups, and to obtain a better understanding…

Back to the present: A general treatment for the tidal field from the wake of dynamical friction

Rain Kipper, Peeter Tenjes, María Benito +6

Dynamical friction can be a valuable tool for inferring dark matter properties that are difficult to constrain by other methods. Most applications of dynamical friction calculation…

A Bayesian estimation of the Milky Way's circular velocity curve using Gaia DR3

Sven Põder, María Benito, Joosep Pata +5

Our goal is to calculate the circular velocity curve of the Milky Way, along with corresponding uncertainties that quantify various sources of systematic uncertainty in a self-cons…

Death at watersheds: galaxy quenching in low-density environments

Maret Einasto, Rain Kipper, Peeter Tenjes +3

Our aim is to understand the effect of environment to galaxy quenching in various local and global environments. We focus on galaxies with very old stellar populations (VO galaxies…
