Rapid quenching and early gas depletion in the core of a galaxy protocluster at z=2.2

Understanding how galaxy evolution is affected in forming high-z overdensities is a major open question in modern astrophysics.

Understanding how galaxy evolution is affected in forming high-z overdensities is a major open question in modern astrophysics. Here, we present the average properties of the quiescent galaxy population recently identified in the core of the Spiderweb protocluster at z = 2.16.…
