Abstract
AbstractIntracluster light is contributed by both stars and gas and it is an important tracer of the interaction history of galaxies within a cluster. We present here the results obtained from MUSE observations of an intermediate redshift (z~ 0.5) cluster taken from the XXL survey and we conclude that the most plausible process responsible for the observed amount of ICL is ram pressure stripping.
