Galaxy Evolution in the Virgo Cluster
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 August 2006
Abstract
In the last years we have gained new insights on how ram pressure acts in detail on Virgo spiral galaxies. This has been possible due to the combination of new deep HI observations, deep polarized radio continuum observations, and detailed dynamical modelling (sticky particles and MHD). As a major result a first complete ram pressure stripping time sequence could be established for the Virgo cluster.
