Spatial distribution of star formation and metals in cluster galaxies

How do galaxies evolve? The project aims to help to answer this key astrophysics question by identifying and characterising processes that regulate star formation in dense environments. It intends to study spatially resolved star formation across a wide range of environments. By taking advantage of observations from a large Hubble Space Telescope program targeting galaxy clusters, it plans to advance the understanding of how galaxy properties evolved in the last six billion years, focusing in particular on the rate of stellar mass assembly.
