Determining the Halo Mass Scale where Galaxies Lose Their Gas
Gregory Rudnick, Pascale Jablonka, John Moustakas +9
A major question in galaxy formation is how the gas supply that fuels activity in galaxies is modulated by their environment. We use spectroscopy of a set of well characterized clu…
Ram pressure feeding super-massive black holes
Bianca M. Poggianti, Yara L. Jaffé, Alessia Moretti +10
When supermassive black holes at the center of galaxies accrete matter (usually gas), they give rise to highly energetic phenomena named Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). A number of p…
Detection and Implications of Laser-Induced Raman Scattering at Astronomical Observatories
F. P. A. Vogt, D. Bonaccini Calia, W. Hackenberg +14
(Abr.) Laser guide stars employed at astronomical observatories provide artificial wavefront reference sources to help correct (in part) the impact of atmospheric turbulence on ast…
Discovery of ram-pressure stripped gas around an elliptical galaxy in Abell 2670
Yun-Kyeong Sheen, Rory Smith, Yara Jaffe +7
Studies of cluster galaxies are increasingly finding galaxies with spectacular one-sided tails of gas and young stars, suggestive of intense ram-pressure stripping. These so-called…
GASP I: Gas stripping phenomena in galaxies with MUSE
Bianca M. Poggianti, Alessia Moretti, Marco Gullieuszik +15
GASP (GAs Stripping Phenomena in galaxies with MUSE) is a new integral-field spectroscopic survey with MUSE at the VLT aiming at studying gas removal processes in galaxies. We pres…
GASP III. JO36: a case of multiple environmental effects at play?
Jacopo Fritz, Alessia Moretti, Marco Gullieuszik +12
The so-called jellyfish galaxies are objects exhibiting disturbed morphology, mostly in the form of tails of gas stripped from the main body of the galaxy. Several works have stron…
