Multi-phase observations of NGC 1427A indicate tidal torquing from a dwarf fly-by has pre-conditioned its gas for ram-pressure stripping by the Fornax intracluster medium, placing the galaxy at the onset of environmental quenching with a declining star formation rate.

X-Stream generates thousands of stream realizations in trial potentials and applies nested sampling to constrain the full radial density profile of dark matter halos from imaging data.
Simulations constrain the mass scale for efficient ISM stripping of dwarf satellites to M_star ≲ 10^7 M_sun in MW-like halos, 0.5-1 dex below observed values, indicating additional quenching mechanisms are needed.
