Morphology of Star-forming Clumps in Ram-pressure Stripped Galaxies as Seen by HST

Morphology of Star-forming Clumps in Ram-pressure Stripped Galaxies as Seen by HST

We characterize the morphological properties of a statistically relevant sample of H α and UV young star-forming clumps and optical complexes, observed with the Hubble Space Telescope in six galaxies of the GASP sample undergoing ram pressure stripping. The catalogs comprise 2406 (323 in the tails)...
