Galaxy Quenching from Cosmic Web Detachment [PDF]
The Open Journal of Astrophysics, 2019 We propose the Cosmic Web Detachment (CWD) model, a framework to interpret the star-formation history of galaxies in a cosmological context. The CWD model unifies several starvation mechanisms known to disrupt or stop star formation into one single ...

A Stellar Mass Threshold for Quenching of Field Galaxies [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2012 We demonstrate that dwarf galaxies (10^7 < M_stellar < 10^9 Msun) with no active star formation are extremely rare (<0.06%) in the field. Our sample is based on the NASA-Sloan Atlas which is a re-analysis of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 8.

Galaxy Zoo: The interplay of quenching mechanisms in the group environment [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017 Does the environment of a galaxy directly influence the quenching history of a galaxy? Here we investigate the detailed morphological structures and star formation histories of a sample of SDSS group galaxies with both classifications from Galaxy Zoo 2 and NUV detections in GALEX.

Galaxy Quenching at the High Redshift Frontier: A Fundamental Test of Cosmological Models in the Early Universe with JWST-CEERS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present an analysis of the quenching of star formation in massive galaxies ( M _* > 10 ^9.5 M _⊙ ) within the first 0.5–3 Gyr of the Universe’s history utilizing JWST-CEERS data.

Galaxy Quenching with Mass Growth History of Galaxy Groups and Clusters: The Importance of Post-processing [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We investigate the fraction of quenched satellite galaxies in host galaxy groups and clusters using TNG300 in the IllustrisTNG cosmological magnetohydrodynamical simulations.

Filaments in VIPERS: galaxy quenching in the infalling regions of groups [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Volume 484,
Issue 1, 21 March 2019, Pages 2-7, 2019 We study the quenching of galaxies in different environments and its evolution in the redshift range $0.43 \leq z \leq 0.89$. For this purpose, we identify galaxies inhabiting filaments, the isotropic infall region of groups, the field, and groups in the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS).

Estimation of the Galaxy Quenching Rate in the Illustris Simulation [PDF]
, 2020 Quenching is a key topic in exploring the formation and evolution of galaxies. In this work, we study the quenching rate, i.e., the variation in the fraction of quenched galaxies per unit time, of the Illustris-1 simulation. By building the quenched fraction function $f(m,\rho, t)$ of each snapshot in the simulation, we derive an accurate form of ...

Characteristic Mass in Galaxy Quenching: Environmental versus Internal Effects [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2020 A clear transition feature of galaxy quenching is identified in the multi-parameter space of stellar mass (M *), bulge-to-total mass ratio (B/T m), halo mass (M h) and halo-centric distance (r/r 180).

Effect of local environment and stellar mass on galaxy quenching and
morphology at $0.5
, 2017 We study galactic star-formation activity as a function of environment and stellar mass over 0.5 0.5 it depends on galaxy stellar mass, demonstrating that the effects of quenching related to (stellar) mass and environment are not separable.
