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.
The size-mass relation for star-forming galaxies at 0.6 < z ≤ 4 shows a gradient in slope with rest-frame wavelength, crossing at ~10^9.5 solar masses proposed as the transition between diffuse and compact morphologies.
JWST data shows half-light radii larger than half-mass radii in galaxies at 0.2<z<2.5, with mass-dependent differences, steeper size-mass slopes for light, and faster mass-size growth for star-forming galaxies at high redshift.
BayeSN analysis of ZTF Type Ia supernovae confirms a ~0.1 mag intrinsic environmental step in standardized brightness that is not explained by differences in dust extinction properties.
A large collaboration compiles and compares merger rate predictions for massive black holes across multiple galaxy formation models to forecast LISA detections and quantify uncertainties.
No significant environmental dependence is found for the galaxy size-mass relation at low redshift across clusters, voids, cluster masses, and cluster-centric distances.
High-mass quiescent galaxies in clusters assemble more luminous stellar halos than field galaxies while low-mass cluster galaxies assemble less luminous ones over 0.1 < z < 1.

Empirical estimates of how massive galaxies can be in {\Lambda}CDM
Corrected empirical limits show the most massive galaxies never exceed the theoretical baryonic maximum of 0.16 times halo virial mass, keeping observations consistent with LambdaCDM at all redshifts.
