The localization of galaxy groups in close proximity to galaxy clusters using cosmic web nodes (2023)
Journal Article
Cornwell, D. J., Kuchner, U., Gray, M. E., Aragón-Salamanca, A., Pearce, F. R., Cui, W., & Knebe, A. (2024). The localization of galaxy groups in close proximity to galaxy clusters using cosmic web nodes. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 527(1), 23-34. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad3205

We investigate the efficacy of using the cosmic web nodes identified by the DisPerSE topological filament finder to systematically identify galaxy groups in the infall regions around massive clusters. The large random motions and infall velocities of... Read More about The localization of galaxy groups in close proximity to galaxy clusters using cosmic web nodes.

The co-evolution of strong AGN and central galaxies in different environments (2023)
Journal Article
Sampaio, V. M., Aragón-Salamanca, A., Merrifield, M. R., De Carvalho, R. R., Zhou, S., & Ferreras, I. (2023). The co-evolution of strong AGN and central galaxies in different environments. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 524(4), 5327–5339. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad2211

We exploit a sample of 80 000 Sloan Digital Sky Survey central galaxies to investigate the effect of active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback on their evolution. We trace the demographics of optically selected AGN (Seyferts) as a function of their inte... Read More about The co-evolution of strong AGN and central galaxies in different environments.

The probability of identifying the cosmic web environment of galaxies around clusters motivated by the Weave Wide Field Cluster Survey (2023)
Journal Article
Cornwell, D. J., Aragón-Salamanca, A., Kuchner, U., Gray, M. E., Pearce, F. R., & Knebe, A. (2023). The probability of identifying the cosmic web environment of galaxies around clusters motivated by the Weave Wide Field Cluster Survey. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 524(2), 2148–2160. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad1949

Upcoming wide-field spectroscopic surveys will observe galaxies in a range of cosmic web environments in and around galaxy clusters. In this paper, we test and quantify how successfully we will be able to identify the environment of individual galaxi...

The wide-field, multiplexed, spectroscopic facility WEAVE: Survey design, overview, and simulated implementation (2023)
Journal Article
Jin, S., Trager, S. C., Dalton, G. B., Aguerri, J. A. L., Drew, J. E., Falcón-Barroso, J., …Zurita, C. (2024). The wide-field, multiplexed, spectroscopic facility WEAVE: Survey design, overview, and simulated implementation. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 530(3), 2688-2730. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad557

WEAVE, the new wide-field, massively multiplexed spectroscopic survey facility for the William Herschel Telescope, saw first light in late 2022. WEAVE comprises a new 2-deg field-of-view prime-focus corrector system, a nearly 1000-multiplex fibre pos...
