How Ram Pressure Drives Radial Gas Motions in the Surviving Disk

Galaxy evolution can be dramatically affected by the environment, especially by the dense environment of a galaxy cluster. Recent observational studies show that massive galaxies undergoing strong ram-pressure stripping (RPS) have an enhanced frequency of nuclear activity. We investigate this topic...
