Structural properties of cluster galaxies during their peak formation epoch, $z \sim 2-4$ provide key information on whether and how environment affects galaxy formation and evolution. Based on deep HST/WFC3 imaging towards the z=2.51…

By obtaining imaging data in two photometric bands for 60 lenticular galaxies - members of 8 southern clusters - with the Las Cumbres Observatory one-meter telescope network, we have analyzed the structure of their large-scale stellar…
