Proposal Title: The Eect of the Cluster Environment on Galaxy Evolution in the Pegasus I
Cluster
ABSTRACT:
The Pegasus cluster oers a most unusual environment in which to study the star formation histories of its
members. Several galaxies exhibit signs of recently completed or ongoing star formation, although what triggered
these episodes is not clear. Two galaxies are of special signicance. Ground-based imaging has shown NGC7648
to have morphological features characteristic of a tidal interaction. NGC7604 has an oset region of enhanced
Halpha emission, and a faint arc, typical of a galaxy aected by ram pressure sweeping. This is surprising, since
Pegasus is considered an environment where ram pressure stripping should not be operating. In addition, there
are con icting claims for HI depletion in other Pegasus spirals. We propose that Arecibo observations of the HI
content and its distribution within these two galaxies, as well as in other spiral galaxies in Pegasus, will help
clarify how the cluster environment is aecting the evolution of its member galaxies.
