Known RPS candidates | 212 | Sect. 3.2 | A compilation of known ram pressure stripping candidates that overlap with Galaxy Zoo 2 data | Sources given in Table 1. A subset of 100 of these are used in Sect. 4 |
Known strong RPS candidates | 58 | Sect. 3.3 | Known RPS candidates that only have optical features and a high RPS strength | Includes known RPS sample galaxies classified in Sect. 2.2 for this study |
Known Radio RPS candidates | 134 | Sect. 3.4 | Known RPS candidates that have radio features | Includes galaxies that have optical features |
Known radio only RPS candidates | 75 | Sect. 3.4 | Known RPS candidates that only have radio features | No optical features reported in other studies or from classification in Sect. 2.2 |
Field comparison sample | 1696 | Sect. 3.1 | A sample of galaxies that are magnitude and redshift matched to the known RPS sample that are away from clusters | Cut to match strong and radio-identified RPS samples where appropriate |
Cluster comparison sample | 1696 | Sect. 3.1 | A sample of galaxies that are magnitude and redshift matched to the known RPS sample that are around cluster cores | Cut to match strong and radio-identified RPS samples where appropriate |
GZ-selected sample | 319 | Sect. 4.1 | GZ2 classified disk galaxies that have properties consistent with the known RPS sample in clusters | |
Non-GZ control sample | 319 | Sect. 4.2 | A sample of disk galaxies around cluster cores that are magnitude and redshift matched to the GZ-selected sample, but do not have unwinding and odd morphologies consistent with the GZ selected sample. | |
GZ-field sample | 319 | Sect. 4.3 | GZ2 classified disk galaxies that have properties consistent with the known RPS sample, but are not in clusters. | |
Expert classified RPS candidates | 101 | Sect. 4.5 | A combined subsample of the GZ-selected sample and the non-GZ control sample that have been classified by experts as being ram pressure stripped | Table of candidates is available online |
