We present HST/WFPC2 observations of the five bluest E+A galaxies (z~0.1) in the Zabludoff et al. sample to study whether their detailed morphologies are consistent with late-to-early type evolution and to determine what drives that…
We use the galaxy stellar mass and halo merger tree information from the semi-analytic model galaxy catalogue of Font et al. (2009) to examine the accretion of galaxies into a large sample of groups and clusters, covering a wide range in…
The formation and evolution of the ``E+A'' (also named ``k+a'' and ``a+k'' types by Dressler et al. 1999) galaxies found in significant numbers in the cores of intermediate redshift clusters has been extensively discussed by many authors.…
If galaxy clusters contain intracluster dust, the spectra of galaxies lying behind clusters should show attenuation by dust absorption. We compare the optical (3500 - 7200 \AA) spectra of 60,267 luminous, early-type galaxies selected from…
We investigate the mass loss of galaxies in groups and clusters with high-resolution DM simulations. We detect weak mass segregation in the inner regions of group/cluster haloes, consistent with observational findings. This applies to…
Galaxies that abruptly interrupt their star formation in < 1.5 Gyr present recognizable features in their spectra (no emission and Hd in absorption) and are called post starburst (PSB) galaxies. By studying their stellar population…
Narrow band multifilter photometry of the galaxy populations of four galaxy clusters at z=0.4-0.5 has provided us with a sample of 73 E+A galaxies which are secure cluster members. For 34 of them HST images are available (WFPC2). We have…
We present ALMA Band 6 (nu=233GHz, lambda=1.3mm) continuum observations towards 68 'normal' star-forming galaxies within two Coma-like progenitor structures at z=2.10 and 2.47, from which ISM masses are derived, providing the largest census…
Post-starburst (or "E+A") galaxies are characterized by low H$\alpha$ emission and strong Balmer absorption, suggesting a recent starburst, but little current star formation. Although many of these galaxies show evidence of recent mergers,…
Post-starburst galaxies, or E+A galaxies, are characterized by optical spectra showing strong Balmer absorption lines, indicating a young stellar population, and little or no emission lines, implying no active star formation. These galaxies…
Galaxies in clusters are more likely to be of early type and to have lower star formation rates than galaxies in the field. Recent observations and simulations suggest that cluster galaxies may be `pre-processed' by group or filament…
We have extended our H alpha objective prism survey of 8 low-redshift clusters (viz. Abell 262, 347, 400, 426, 569, 779, 1367 and 1656) to include a complete sample of early-type galaxies within 1.5 Abell radii of the cluster centres. Of…
We consider several mechanisms that possibly affect the evolution of disk galaxies in clusters using analytical models based on a hierarchical clustering scenario. We especially focus on the evolution of disk galaxies in subclusters located…
We present results from a low-resolution spectroscopic survey for 21 galaxy clusters at $0.4 < z < 0.8$ selected from the ESO Distant Cluster Survey. We measured spectra using the low-dispersion prism in IMACS on the Magellan Baade…
Galaxies in rich clusters with z $\gtrsim$ 0.3 are observed to have a higher fraction of photometrically blue galaxies than their nearby counterparts. This raises the important question of what environmental effects can cause the…
We employ spectroscopic and photometric data from SDSS DR7, in a 500 sq degree region, to understand the evolution of dwarf (~M*+2<M_z<M*+4) galaxies in the Coma supercluster (z=0.023). We show that in the Coma supercluster, the red dwarfs…
We present a study of environmental effects and preprocessing in a large galaxy group using a high-resolution, zoom-in simulation run with the GASOLINE2 hydrodynamics code. We categorize galaxies that were always in distinct haloes as…
E+A galaxies are galaxies with strong Balmer absorption lines and with no significant emission in [OII] or H$\alpha$ lines. The existence of strong Balmer absorption lines shows that these galaxies have experienced a starburst within the…
I present near-IR photometry of a selected sample of E+A galaxies observed in the southern hemisphere. The sample includes 50 galaxies from nearby clusters (z ~ 0.05) and distant clusters (z ~ 0.31) as well as E+A galaxies from the field (z…
We employ a high-resolution dissipationless N-body simulation of a galaxy cluster to investigate the impact of subhalo selection on the resulting velocity distributions. Applying a lower limit on the present bound mass of subhalos leads to…
