Clustercentric Distance or Local Density? It Depends on Galaxy Morphology

Clustercentric Distance or Local Density? It Depends on Galaxy Morphology

Determining which between projected local density and distance from the cluster center plays a major role in regulating morphological fractions in clusters is a longstanding debate. Reaching a definitive answer will shed light on the main physical mechanisms at play in the most extreme environments....
