Ram pressure stripping in high-density environments
Galaxies living in rich environments are suffering different perturbations able to drastically
affect their evolution. Among these, ram pressure stripping, ie the pressure exerted by the …

Structure and kinematics of early-type galaxies from integral field spectroscopy
M Cappellari - Annual review of astronomy and astrophysics, 2016 - annualreviews.org
Observations of galaxy isophotes, long-slit kinematics, and high-resolution photometry
suggested a possible dichotomy between two distinct classes of elliptical galaxies. But these …

The green valley is a red herring: Galaxy Zoo reveals two evolutionary pathways towards quenching of star formation in early-and late-type galaxies
Abstract We use SDSS+ GALEX+ Galaxy Zoo data to study the quenching of star formation
in low-redshift galaxies. We show that the green valley between the blue cloud of star …
