Galaxy Evolution in Dense Environments
Event Start:
2022-03-14T15:00:00
Event End:
2022-03-14T16:00:00
Event Information:
As the universe evolves star-forming galaxies transform into
passively-evolving red galaxies. These transformations are due to a
combination of internal processes, like feedback from an active
galactic nucleus, as well as environmental processes. I will review
the ways in which host environment can affect the properties of
galaxies and then present some of our recent work on group and cluster
galaxies in the local universe. Previous work has found that the star
formation rates of satellite galaxies depend on the mass of their host
