Evolving Galaxies in Evolving Environments

The programme of the conference will cover the following topics:

• Evolving environments: clusters, groups, density field, clustering, dark matter environment, and how they depend globally on redshift)
• Central galaxies: links between accretion, bulge growth, star formation & AGN feedback, including BCGs.
• Multiphase gas and environment: observations and simulations of gas budget vs halo mass, hot gas (detection, cooling, stripping), warm gas (absorption studies, abundance), cold gas (detection of flows, abundance).
• Satellite galaxies: direct evidence of interaction with environment, physical mechanisms, simulations, empirical trends.
• Tight interactions and no interactions: merging, close pairs, compact groups, fossils/isolated galaxies, etc.

Cosmic Rays and their interstellar environment

Cosmic rays are a major component of the interstellar medium. They share an equivalent energy density with the magnetic field and the interstellar gas.
