Ram pressure stripping in high-density environments

A Boselli, M Fossati, M Sun - The Astronomy and astrophysics review, 2022 - Springer
Galaxies living in rich environments are suffering different perturbations able to drastically

The faint light in groups and clusters of galaxies

M Montes - Nature Astronomy, 2022 - nature.com
The diffuse light that spreads through groups and clusters of galaxies is made of free-floating
stars not bound to any galaxy. This is known as the intracluster light (ICL) and holds …

The Dawes Review 9: The role of cold gas stripping on the star formation quenching of satellite galaxies

L Cortese, B Catinella, R Smith - Publications of the Astronomical …, 2021 - cambridge.org
One of the key open questions in extragalactic astronomy is what stops star formation in
galaxies. While it is clear that the cold gas reservoir, which fuels the formation of new stars …

Quenched fractions in the IllustrisTNG simulations: the roles of AGN feedback, environment, and pre-processing

M Donnari, A Pillepich, GD Joshi… - Monthly Notices of …, 2021 - academic.oup.com

Jellyfish galaxies with the IllustrisTNG simulations–when, where, and for how long does ram pressure stripping of cold gas occur?

E Rohr, A Pillepich, D Nelson, E Zinger… - Monthly Notices of …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
Jellyfish galaxies are prototypical examples of satellite galaxies undergoing strong ram
