The Mass-Metallicity Relation and its Observational Effects at z~3-6
Zach Lewis, Michael V. Maseda, Anna de Graaff +21
The correlation between galaxy stellar mass and gas-phase metallicity, known as the mass-metallicity relation (MZR), gives key insights into the processes that govern galaxy evolut…
Where Galaxies Go to Die: The Environments of Massive Quiescent Galaxies at
Ian McConachie, Anna de Graaff, Michael V. Maseda +25
At low redshift, massive quiescent galaxies (MQGs) are most frequently found in massive, rich galaxy clusters, but at high redshift the trend is less clear. Here, we present spectr…
Discovery of red galaxy candidates at z ~ 12: Early dust growth or significant nebular emission with high-temperature stars?
Ikki Mitsuhashi, Katherine A. Suess, Joel Leja +18
We report the discovery of two z ~ 12 galaxy candidates with unusually red UV slopes (betaUV ~> -1.5), and probe the origin of such colors at cosmic dawn. From Prospector fits to t…
Meet the Neighbors: Gas Rich "Buddy Galaxies" are Common Around Recently Quenched Massive Galaxies in the SQuIGGE Survey
Anika Kumar, David J. Setton, Rachel Bezanson +7
In this work, we characterize the environments of massive () post-starburst galaxies (PSBs) by studying serendipitously-detected CO(2-1) e…
Clues to inside-out quenching in quiescent galaxies at : Age, Fe-, and Mg-abundance gradients from JWST-SUSPENSE
Chloe M. Cheng, Martje Slob, Mariska Kriek +16
[Abridged] Spatially resolved stellar populations of massive quiescent galaxies at cosmic noon provide powerful insights into quenching and assembly mechanisms. Previous photometri…
SQuIGGE: Buried star formation cannot explain the rapidly fading CO(2-1) luminosity in massive, post-starburst galaxies
David J. Setton, Justin S. Spilker, Rachel Bezanson +12
Observational and theoretical studies have long held that rapid gas consumption in starbursts is responsible for the formation of quiescent galaxies. However, studies of recently q…
RUBIES spectroscopically confirms the high number density of quiescent galaxies from
Yunchong Zhang, Anna de Graaff, David J. Setton +21
We present the number density of massive () quiescent galaxies at using JWST NIRSpec PRISM spectra. This work relies on spectra fr…
Quenching Through Tidal Gas Removal: Molecular Gas and Star Formation in Tidal Tails of z ~ 0.7 Post-Starburst Galaxies
Vincenzo R. D'Onofrio, Justin S. Spilker, Rachel Bezanson +10
The active suppression of star formation in galaxies is critical in preventing the growth of overly massive systems and explaining the formation of present-day elliptical galaxies.…
MINERVA: A NIRCam Medium Band and MIRI Imaging Survey to Unlock the Hidden Gems of the Distant Universe
Adam Muzzin, Katherine A. Suess, Danilo Marchesini +81
We present an overview of the MINERVA survey, a 259.8 hour (prime) and 127 hour (parallel) Cycle 4 treasury program on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). MINERVA is obtaining 8…
Dwarf Galaxies at Cosmic Noon: New JWST Constraints on Satellite Models and Subhalo Tidal Evolution
Jenny T. Wan, Philip Mansfield, Katherine A. Suess +4
The advent of JWST has revolutionized the study of faint satellite galaxies at , enabling statistical constraints on galaxy evolution and the galaxyhalo connection…
Unusually High Gas-to-Dust Ratios Observed in High-Redshift Quiescent Galaxies
Justin S. Spilker, Katherine E. Whitaker, Desika Narayanan +15
Tracking the cold molecular gas contents of galaxies is critical to understand the interplay between star formation and galaxy growth across cosmic time. Observations of the long-w…
Modeling Star Formation Histories of Changing-Look AGN Host Galaxies with Prospector
Margaret E. Verrico, K. Decker French, Katherine Suess +7
Changing-look active galactic nuclei, or CL-AGN, are AGN which appear to transition between Seyfert Type 1 and 2 over periods of months to years. Several mechanisms to trigger thes…
Cold gas in a post-starburst pair at z ~ 1.4: major mergers as a pathway to quenching in the HeavyMetal survey
Katherine A. Suess, Aliza G. Beverage, Mariska Kriek +12
Recent observations at low redshift have revealed that some post-starburst galaxies retain significant molecular gas reservoirs despite low ongoing star formation rates, challengin…
Taking a Break at Cosmic Noon: Continuum-selected Low-mass Galaxies Require Long Burst Cycles
Abby Mintz, David J. Setton, Jenny E. Greene +25
While bursty star formation in low-mass galaxies has been observed in local populations and reproduced in simulations, the dormant phase of the burst cycle has not been well studie…
