Description

GAs Stripping Phenomena in galaxies (GASP) is a program aimed at studying gas removal processes in nearby galaxies in different environments, using observations at different wavelengths (X, UV, optical, sub-mm, radio). The core of the program is an integral-field spectroscopic survey with MUSE at the VLT, that allows to study the spatially resolved properties of galaxies.
I will present some breakthrough results based on the GASP survey on the effects of the ICM on gas dust and star formation histories. I will focus both on specific galaxies undergoing strong gas stripping and on some general trends that help us to understand
galaxy quenching and evolution in general.
I will also focus on galaxies in low density environments, showing the multitude of mechanisms that can affect the gas distribution.
