Molecular gas content and SFR in Hickson compact groups: Enhanced or deficient?
Aims. We study the effect of the extreme environment in Hickson compact groups (HCGs) on the molecular gas mass, MH2, and the star formation rate (SFR) of galaxies as a function of atomic hydrogen (HI) content and evolutionary phase of the group.
