RED GALAXIES
V-I
I magnitudeDe Lucia et al. 2004
Well-defined relation between colour and luminosity (red sequence) for clusters up to z=1.5, of galaxies whose SF terminated well before the epoch we observe them
Not all today’s red sequence galaxies have been red and passive since high-z
Downsizing of the red sequence: most massive/luminous galaxies stopped forming stars, and were on the red sequence at an earlier epoch than less massive ones

Morphological fractions vs redshift
Most of the morphological evolution in luminous galaxies has occurred since z=0.5, during the last 5 Gyrs.
WINGS + EDisCS Poggianti et al. 2009b ApJ Letter
Evolution of the morphological fractions as a function of velocity dispersion
AGAIN, THE STRONGEST EVOLUTION BETWEEN z=1 AND TODAY APPEARS TO HAPPEN IN GALAXIES IN
LOW-MASS CLUSTERS
The fraction of passive galaxies observed at high-z is about the fraction of galaxies that were already in groups (M > 3 X 10^12) at z=2.5
The fraction of passive galaxies observed at low-z is about the fraction of galaxies that have spent at least the last 3 Gyr (since z=0.3) in clusters (M > 10^14)

STAR FORMATION-LOCAL DENSITY RELATION
Z=0 (red, SDSS clusters)
Z=0.4-0.8 (black, EDisCS)
The EDisCS star formation-density relation qualitatively resembles that observed at low-z: higher density regions have fewer star-forming galaxies, and the average EW(OII) of star-forming galaxies is independent of local density. Thus the SF in star-forming galaxies not affected by local environment? No….

Average SFR and sSFR vs density
SFR and SSFR in star-forming galaxies peaks at intermediate densities at high-z?
In summary:
The fraction of star-forming galaxies and the SFR in star-forming galaxies, at least in clusters depend on local
density.

WHAT TIMESCALE? POST-STARBURST SPECTRA IN
DISTANT CLUSTERS
post-starburst galaxies 25% of the distant cluster galaxy population Dressler & Gunn 1983, Couch & Sharples 1987, Dressler et al. 1999, Poggianti et al. 1999, Tran et al. 2001,
2004
Larger % in clusters than in field at similar z’s (Dressler et al. 1999, Poggianti et al. 1999, Tran et al. 2003,2004, now Ediscs, Ma et al… – but Balogh et al. 1999)
SF truncation in clusters
strong Balmer absorption and no line detected in emission
SF ended abruptly sometime during the last Gyr
Poggianti et al. 2009a
At z=0.4-0.8, post-starburst galaxies more frequent in
more massive clusters and in some of the groups…
…those groups with a low OII fraction for their sigma
Massive S0 and Sa in transition More massive clusters have a higher proportion of k+a galaxies…
Dusty starburst candidates are frequent in all environments, and are especially frequent in groups
In EDisCS we find that the incidence of k+a galaxies at our redshifts depends strongly on environment
GROUP “BIMODALITY” ? THE KEY?Evidence: some groups look like “mini-clusters”, some look like field (at the same mass) for their star forming fraction, morphologies, post-starburst incidence etc
Poggianti et al. 2006, 2008, 2009a, Wilman et al. 2005, 2009, Kautsch et al. 2008, Jeltema et al. 2007 – also Zabludoff & Mulchaey 1998….
Not simply “true” vs “false” groups? (eg. X-ray groups Jeltema et al. 2007) – hard to explain as wrong mass estimate
Difference between two types of groups ought to help to understand what is going on at the group level
Stay tuned for galaxy stellar mass functions as a function of environment, redshift and morphological type (Vulcani et al. in prep.) !!
For the Hall of Fame:
An open question (two…):
What is/are the physical process/esses responsible for the two passive families? Eg. From cold to hot gas accretion in massive haloes at high-z (primordial), and some “classic” environmental effects at lower-z (quenched)? Can it be the same process? How can we actually DISCRIMINATE OBSERVATIONALLY?
Why are some groups efficient at turning star-forming, late-type galaxies into passive, early-type galaxies and some are not? What are the physical processes involved?
The population of cluster and groups passive galaxies today is composed of two families: “primordial”, massive galaxies that finished forming stars at z≥2 (massive ellipticals – 20% of today’s 80% passive galaxies in clusters), and “quenched/declining” galaxies that stopped forming stars at later epochs due to a combination of intrinsic properties and environmental effects (mostly S0s, mostly non massive, and not all of the S0s, 50-60% of today’s 80%)
