Post-starburst Galaxies with Active Galactic Nucleus: Properties and Evolutionary Sequences
Junjie Huang, Yanmei Chen, Yong Shi +7
Post-starburst (PSB) galaxies, identified by strong Balmer absorption and weak nebular emission, provide a key laboratory for studying rapid quenching. Using the final data release…
The quenching time and timescale distribution of z~2 quiescent galaxies from precise colour distribution analysis
Vivienne Wild, Ho-Hin Leung, Adam Carnall +1
Understanding when and how galaxies quench their star formation is crucial for understanding the dominant physical processes at play. The spectral energy distribution (SED) of gala…
Spatially resolved star-formation histories of local post-starburst galaxies: Starburst and quenching spatial patterns consistent with recent mergers
Ho-Hin Leung, Vivienne Wild, Michail Papathomas +6
Post-starburst (PSB) galaxies, having recently experienced a starburst followed by rapid quenching, are excellent laboratories to probe physical mechanisms that drive starbursts an…
The diverse quenching pathways of post-starburst galaxies in SDSS-IV MaNGA
Ho-Hin Leung, Vivienne Wild, Michail Papathomas +2
The quenching of star formation in galaxies is an important aspect of galaxy evolution, but the physical mechanisms that drive it are still not understood. Measuring the spatial di…
Low redshift post-starburst galaxies host abundant HI reservoirs
Sara L. Ellison, Qifeng Huang, Dong Yang +8
Studying the gas content of post-starburst (PSB) galaxies can provide valuable clues regarding the process of fast quenching. Although previous works have studied the molecular gas…
The infrared luminosity of retired and post-starburst galaxies: A cautionary tale for star formation rate measurements
Vivienne Wild, Natalia Vale Asari, Kate Rowlands +3
In galaxies with significant ongoing star formation there is an impressively tight correlation between total infrared luminosity (L) and H luminosity (L), when…
