MUSE Analysis of Gas around Galaxies (MAGG) -- I: Survey design and the environment of a near pristine gas cloud at z~3.5

Emma K. Lofthouse, Michele Fumagalli, Matteo Fossati +9

We present the design, methods, and first results of the MUSE Analysis of Gas around Galaxies (MAGG) survey, a large programme on the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) instr…

Major mergers are not significant drivers of star formation or morphological transformation around the epoch of peak cosmic star formation

E. K. Lofthouse, S. Kaviraj, C. J. Conselice +2

We investigate the contribution of major mergers (mass ratios $> 1 : 5$ ) to stellar mass growth and morphological transformations around the epoch of peak cosmic star formation ($z\si…
