Discovery of ram-pressure stripped gas around an elliptical galaxy in
  Abell 2670
  Studies of cluster galaxies are increasingly finding galaxies with
spectacular one-sided tails of gas and young stars, suggestive of intense
ram-pressure stripping. These so-called "jellyfish" galaxies typically have
late-type morphology. In this paper, we present MUSE observations of an
elliptical galaxy in Abell 2670 with long tails of material visible in the
optical spectra, as well as blobs with tadpole-like morphology. The spectra in
the central part of the galaxy reveals a stellar component as well as ionized
gas. The stellar component does not have significant rotation, while the
ionized gas defines a clear star-forming gas disk. We argue, based on deep
optical images of the galaxy, that the gas was most likely acquired during a
past wet merger. It is possible that the star-forming blobs are also remnants
of the merger. In addition, the direction and kinematics of the one-sided
ionized tails, combined with the tadpole morphology of the star-forming blobs,
strongly suggests that the system is undergoing ram pressure from the
intracluster medium. In summary, this paper presents the discovery of a
post-merger elliptical galaxy undergoing ram pressure stripping.
