Ram pressure stripping candidates in the coma cluster: evidence for enhanced star formation
Abstract
ABSTRACT
The Coma cluster is the nearest massive ($M \gtrsim 10^{15}\, \mathrm{M_\odot }$) galaxy cluster, making it an excellent laboratory to probe the influence of the cluster environment on galaxy star formation. Here, we present a sample of 41 galaxies with disturbed morphologies consistent with ram pressure stripping. These galaxies are identified visually using high-quality, multiband imaging from the …
