After The Fall: Resolving the Molecular Gas in Post-Starburst Galaxies

Adam Smercina, John-David T. Smith, K. Decker French +8

Post-starburst (PSB), or 'E+A', galaxies represent a rapid transitional phase between major, gas-rich mergers and gas-poor, quiescent early-type galaxies. Surprisingly, many PSBs h…

Signatures of inflowing gas in red geyser galaxies hosting radio-AGN

Namrata Roy, Kevin Bundy, Kate H. R. Rubin +10

We study cool neutral gas traced by NaD absorption in 140 local ( early-type ``red geyser'' galaxies. These galaxies show unique signatures in spatially-resolved strong…

Are all post-starbursts mergers? HST reveals hidden disturbances in the majority of PSBs

Elizaveta Sazonova, Katherine Alatalo, Kate Rowlands +12

How do galaxies transform from blue, star-forming spirals to red, quiescent early-type galaxies? To answer this question, we analyzed a set of 26 gas-rich, shocked post-starburst g…

From starburst to quiescence: post-starburst galaxies and their large-scale clustering over cosmic time

Aaron Wilkinson, Omar Almaini, Vivienne Wild +4

We present the first study of the large-scale clustering of post-starburst (PSB) galaxies in the high redshift Universe (). We select PSB galaxies photometric…

Buckling bars in nearly face-on galaxies observed with MaNGA

K. M. Xiang, D. M. Nataf, E. Athanassoula +6

Over half of disk galaxies are barred, yet the mechanisms for bar formation and the life-time of bar buckling remain poorly understood. In simulations, a thin bar undergoes a rapid…
