An exquisitely deep view of quenching galaxies through the gravitational lens: Stellar population, morphology, and ionized gas

Allison W. S. Man, Johannes Zabl, Gabriel B. Brammer +6

This work presents an in-depth analysis of four gravitationally lensed red galaxies at z = 1.6-3.2. The sources are magnified by factors of 2.7-30 by foreground clusters, enabling…

Molecular gas in a gravitationally lensed galaxy group at

Jeff Shen, Allison W. S. Man, Johannes Zabl +5

Most molecular gas studies of galaxies are of intrinsically bright objects, despite the galaxy population being primarily "normal" galaxies with less extreme star formati…

The Fundamental Plane of Massive Quiescent Galaxies at z~2

Mikkel Stockmann, Inger Jørgensen, Sune Toft +11

We examine the Fundamental Plane (FP) and mass-to-light ratio () scaling relations using the largest sample of massive quiescent galaxies at to date. The FP ($r_{e…

Compact Star-Forming Galaxies as Old Starbursts Becoming Quiescent

C. Gómez-Guijarro, G. E. Magdis, F. Valentino +8

Optically-compact star-forming galaxies (SFGs) have been proposed as immediate progenitors of quiescent galaxies, although their origin and nature are debated. Were they formed in…

Stellar Velocity Dispersion of a Massive Quenching Galaxy at z=4.01

Masayuki Tanaka, Francesco Valentino, Sune Toft +12

We present the first stellar velocity dispersion measurement of a massive quenching galaxy at z=4.01. The galaxy is first identified as a massive z>~4 galaxy with suppressed star f…

Quiescent galaxies 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang and their progenitors

Francesco Valentino, Masayuki Tanaka, Iary Davidzon +18

We report two secure () and one tentative () spectroscopic confirmations of massive and quiescent galaxies through -band observations with Keck/MO…

PAHs as tracers of the molecular gas in star-forming galaxies

I. Cortzen, J. Garrett, G. Magdis +12

[Abridged] We combine new CO(1-0) line observations of 24 intermediate redshift galaxies (0.03 < z < 0.28) along with literature data of galaxies at 0<z<4 to explore scaling relati…

The rest-frame optical sizes of massive galaxies with suppressed star formation at

Mariko Kubo, Masayuki Tanaka, Kiyoto Yabe +3

We present the rest-frame optical sizes of massive quiescent galaxies (QGs) at measured at -band with the Infrared Camera and Spectrograph (IRCS) and AO188 on the Suba…

Starburst to quiescent from HST/ALMA: Stars and dust unveil minor mergers in submillimeter galaxies at

C. Gómez-Guijarro, S. Toft, A. Karim +32

Dust-enshrouded, starbursting, submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) at have been proposed as progenitors of compact quiescent galaxies (cQGs). To test this connectio…

Thirty-fold: Extreme gravitational lensing of a quiescent galaxy at

H. Ebeling, M. Stockmann, J. Richard +4

We report the discovery of eMACSJ1341-QG-1, a quiescent galaxy at located behind the massive galaxy cluster eMACSJ1341.92442 (). The system was identified as…

A massive, dead disk galaxy in the early Universe

Sune Toft, Johannes Zabl, Johan Richard +10

At redshift z = 2, when the Universe was just three billion years old, half of the most massive galaxies were extremely compact and had already exhausted their fuel for star format…
