Scientific paper

It now seems that the morphology-density relation is established by processes operating within groups, and only subsequently incorporated into clusters. The recent discovery that the HI-deficiency observed in galaxies within compact groups is related to the presence of a hot intergalactic medium, offers a clue to the processes involved in the transformation of the galaxy population. We propose to image a set of HI-deficient groups with XMM and Chandra, to compare the X-ray morphology with the HI distribution mapped by the VLA. This will enable us to discriminate between ram pressure stripping, tidal stripping and starburst mechanisms for the removal of gas from galaxies.
