Quenching as a Contest between Galaxy Halos and their Central Black Holes
Zhu Chen, S. M. Faber, David. C. Koo +27
Existing models of galaxy formation have not yet explained striking correlations between structure and star-formation activity in galaxies, notably the sloped and moving boundaries…
On the Transition of the Galaxy Quenching Mode at 0.5<z<1 in CANDELS
F. S. Liu, Meng Jia, Hassen M. Yesuf +19
We investigate the galaxy quenching process at intermediate redshift using a sample of galaxies with between redshift 0.5 and 1.0 in all fiv…
The Isophotal Structure of Star-forming Galaxies at in CANDELS: Implications for the Evolution of Galaxy Structure
Dongfei Jiang, F. S. Liu, Xianzhong Zheng +15
We have measured the radial profiles of isophotal ellipticity () and disky/boxy parameter A out to radii of about three times the semi-major axes for s…
Is the Spiral Galaxy a Cosmic Hurricane?
Zexin Cao, Ling Liu, Tingting Zheng
It is discussed that the formation of the spiral galaxies is driven by the cosmic background rotation, not a result of an isolated evolution proposed by the density wave theory. To…
The Origins of UV-optical Color Gradients in Star-forming Galaxies at z ~ 2: Predominant Dust Gradients But Negligible sSFR Gradients
F. S. Liu, Dongfei Jiang, S. M. Faber +13
The rest-frame UV-optical (i.e., ) color is sensitive to both low-level recent star formation (specific star formation rate - sSFR) and dust. In this Letter, we extend our p…
UVI colour gradients of 0.4<z<1.4 star-forming main sequence galaxies in CANDELS: dust extinction and star formation profiles
Weichen Wang, S. M. Faber, F. S. Liu +10
This paper uses radial colour profiles to infer the distributions of dust, gas and star formation in z=0.4-1.4 star-forming main sequence galaxies. We start with the standard UVJ-b…
