Scientific paper

The observed morphological evolution since z ~ 0.5 within galaxy clusters
provides evidence for a hierarchical universe. This evolution is driven by
dynamical effects that operate within the cluster environment -- suppression of
star-formation by ram-pressure and viscous stripping of the intra-galactic
medium and tidal heating of disks by gravitational encounters.
