In hierarchical models, density fluctuations on different scales are correlated. This induces correlations between dark halo masses, their formation histories, and their larger-scale environments. In turn, this produces a correlation…
We investigate the resolved relation between local extinction and star formation surface density within nearby star-forming galaxies selected from the MaNGA survey. Balmer decrement measurements imply an extinction of the H{\alpha} line…

Recent highly sensitive detections of line emission from extended gas in the local universe demonstrate the feasibility of detecting H$\alpha$ emitting galactic halos out to $z\sim1$. We determine the form of the surface brightness vs.…
The spatial distribution of galaxy clusters provides a reliable tracer of the large-scale distribution of matter in the Universe. The clustering signal depends on intrinsic cluster properties and cosmological parameters. The ability of…
We employ the EAGLE hydrodynamical simulation to uncover the relationship between cluster environment and $\rm H_2$ content of star-forming galaxies at redshifts spanning $0\leq z\leq 1$. To do so, we divide the star-forming sample into…
Galaxy evolution depends on the environment in which galaxies are located. The various physical processes (ram-pressure stripping, tidal interactions, etc.) that can affect the gas content in galaxies have different efficiencies in…

Both simulations and observations have confirmed that the spin of haloes/galaxies is correlated with the large scale structure (LSS) with a mass dependence such that the spin of low-mass haloes/galaxies tend to be parallel with the LSS,…
