Scientific paper

The advent of the recent powerful super-computers makes it possible to carry out chemo-dynamical simulations which follow the formation and evolution of both groups and their member galaxies, taking into account the evolution of the large-scale structure in the Universe. Using a state-of-the art high-resolution simulation, the author studies how the group environment impacts the star formation properties of member galaxies. So-called "strangulation" works even in low-mass groups, and leads to a quenching of star formation of member galaxies.
