Hierarchical assembly in action: A galaxy tail from a disrupting group in the Virgo cluster outskirts
Context. Group environments are thought to play a key role in shaping galaxy evolution prior to cluster accretion. However, direct observational evidence linking group─cluster interactions to the transformation of low-mass galaxies remains scarce. Aims. The nature and origin of the W cloud, located in the southern outskirts of the Virgo cluster
