Evolution of galaxies in the large scale structure
Speaker: Agnieszka Pollo
Abstract:
Galaxies are objects known to evolve with time. This evolution depends on their environments, and even broader – on their position in the large-scale cosmic web. However, the old question – “nature or nurture” – i.e. to what extent this difference in evolutionary paths is driven by original properties of a galaxy and its host halo, and to what extent by interactions with the environment – remains open until this very day. In my talk, I plan to present a selection of results of our team aimed at solving this riddle, based on data from z~0.1 (like the GAMA survey), through z~1 (the VIPERS survey) up to z~3 (the VUDS survey). I will also discuss some prospects for the future.
