Description
In this work, we investigate the impact of large-scale environment on
the IMF in quiescent galaxies. For this purpose, we compare the trend of
IMF-sensitive spectral features with respect to galaxy mass in three
samples of intermediate-mass galaxies that reside in low, intermediate
and high-density environments. Using SDSS DR7 spectra stacked by
velocity dispersion and redshift, in a purely observational approach, we
find that the IMF of intermediate-mass galaxies does not significantly
depend on the galactic environment.
