Scientific paper

Using an N-body/SPH code, we explore the scenario in which a dwarf elliptical
galaxy (dE) is subjected to ram-pressure stripping due to the intracluster
medium (ICM). Our simulations show that while (i) smaller dEs lose their ISM
almost immediately after entering the cluster, (ii) more massive dEs are able
to retain their gas for considerable timespans.
