Death by Impact: Evidence for Merger-Driven Quenching in a Collisional Ring Galaxy at Cosmic Noon
Amir H. Khoram, Sirio Belli, Carlo Nipoti +7
The role of interactions and mergers in the rapid quenching of massive galaxies in the early Universe remains uncertain, largely due to the difficulty of directly linking mergers t…

SIEGE IV: compact star clusters in cosmological simulations with high star formation efficiency and sub-parsec resolution
R. Pascale, F. Calura, E. Vesperini +10
The formation of compact high-redshift star-forming clumps, the physical processes driving their evolution and their potential connection to present-day Globular Clusters are key o…
