Abstract

Abstract Using the IllustrisTNG simulation, we study the interaction of large-scale shocks with the circumgalactic medium (CGM) and interstellar medium (ISM) of star-forming (SF) satellite galaxies in galaxy clusters. These shocks are usually produced by mergers and massive accretion. Our visual inspection shows that approximately half of SF satellites have encountered shocks in their host clusters at z ≤ 0.11. After a satellite crosses a shock front and enters the post-shock region, the ram pressure on it is boosted significantly. Both the CGM and ISM can be severely impacted, either by stripping or compression. The stripping of the ISM is particularly important for low-mass galaxies with log ( M * / h 1 M ) < 10 and can occur even in the outskirts of galaxy clusters. In comparison, satellites that do not interact with shocks lose their ISM only in the inner regions of clusters. About half of the ISM is stripped within about 0.6 Gyr after it crosses the shock front. Our results show that shock-induced stripping plays an important role in quenching satellite galaxies in clusters.
