Description

In this work, we explore the overlap between the MeerKAT Galaxy Cluster Legacy Survey (MGCLS), James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations, and the Galaxy Clusters at Vircam (GCAV) survey. This enables a detailed study of the radio galaxy population, extending down to the transition regime between AGN and starburst in elliptical galaxies, as well as to very faint star formation emission in late-type objects. Combined with existing ancillary data, this provides a window into galaxy evolution across a large and largely unexplored diversity of cluster environments.
