- Galaxies are not isolated system: usually they are bounded in groups, clusters, or interacting systems.
- There are specific physical processes acting on galaxies within denser environment able to modify their shape.
- Galaxies in cluster have less star formation, are more gas poor and exist a correlation between morphology and the density.
- The way in which we can study such mechanisms can be spectral and SED analysis.
