Beyond UVJ: More Efficient Selection of Quiescent Galaxies With UV / Mid-IR Fluxes
Joel Leja, Sandro Tacchella, Charlie Conroy
The UVJ color-color diagram is a popular and efficient method to distinguish between quiescent and star-forming galaxies through their rest-frame vs. colors. Here we ex…
Measuring the delay time distribution of binary neutron stars. III. Using the individual star formation histories of gravitational wave event host galaxies in the local universe
Mohammadtaher Safarzadeh, Edo Berger, Joel Leja +1
In Paper I (Safarzadeh & Berger 2019) we studied the determination of the delay time distribution (DTD) of binary neutron stars (BNS) through scaling relations between halo/stellar…
The Electromagnetic Counterpart of the Binary Neutron Star Merger LIGO/VIRGO GW170817. VII. Properties of the Host Galaxy and Constraints on the Merger Timescale
P. K. Blanchard, E. Berger, W. Fong +21
We present the properties of NGC 4993, the host galaxy of GW170817, the first gravitational wave (GW) event from the merger of a binary neutron star (BNS) system and the first with…
The superluminous supernova SN 2017egm in the nearby galaxy NGC 3191: a metal-rich environment can support a typical SLSN evolution
Matt Nicholl, Edo Berger, Raffaella Margutti +4
At redshift z=0.03, the recently-discovered SN 2017egm is the nearest Type I superluminous supernova (SLSN) to date, and first near the center of a massive spiral galaxy (NGC 3191)…
Evidence for non-stellar rest-frame near-IR emission associated with increased star formation in galaxies at
Johannes U. Lange, Pieter G. van Dokkum, Ivelina G. Momcheva +5
We explore the presence of non-stellar rest-frame near-IR () emission in galaxies at . Previous studies identified this excess in relatively small samp…
