The role of small-scale environments in the quenching of massive galaxies at

Takumi Kakimoto, Masayuki Tanaka, Makoto Ando +10

Massive quiescent galaxies (QGs) at high redshifts are likely progenitors of massive elliptical galaxies in the local Universe. Recent observations, such as the discovery of QGs in…

EMPRESS. X. Spatially resolved mass-metallicity relation in extremely metal-poor galaxies: evidence of episodic star-formation fueled by a metal-poor gas infall

Kimihiko Nakajima, Masami Ouchi, Yuki Isobe +47

Using the Subaru/FOCAS IFU capability, we examine the spatially resolved relationships between gas-phase metallicity, stellar mass, and star-formation rate surface densities (Sigma…
