Inside-Out vs. Outside-In Quenching of MaNGA Galaxies: Dependence on Stellar Mass and Environment

Zi-Hua Ho, Lihwai Lin, Hung-Yu Jian +6

Galaxy quenching, the cessation of star formation, can proceed in spatially distinct ways, commonly described as inside-out or outside-in. However, the inferred quenching pattern d…
