Galaxy Quenching from Cosmic Web Detachment [PDF]

open access: goldThe 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 ...

Mapping stellar content to dark matter haloes – II. Halo mass is the main driver of galaxy quenching [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2016
We develop a simple yet comprehensive method to distinguish the underlying drivers of galaxy quenching, using the clustering and galaxy-galaxy lensing of red and blue galaxies in SDSS.

Galaxy Quenching at the High Redshift Frontier: A Fundamental Test of Cosmological Models in the Early Universe with JWST-CEERS [PDF]

open access: yesThe 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.

Characteristic Mass in Galaxy Quenching: Environmental versus Internal Effects [PDF]

open access: bronzeAstrophysical 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).

The Astrid Simulation: Evolution of Black Holes and Galaxies to z = 0.5 and Different Evolution Pathways for Galaxy Quenching

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present new results from the ASTRID simulation from z = 3 to z = 0.5, covering the epoch of cosmic noon. The galaxy stellar mass function, as well as the black hole mass and luminosity functions in ASTRID , exhibit good agreement with recent ...

CONFRONTING MODELS OF DWARF GALAXY QUENCHING WITH OBSERVATIONS OF THE LOCAL GROUP [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2013
A number of mechanisms have been proposed to connect star-forming dwarf irregular galaxies with the formation of non-star-forming dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs), but distinguishing between these mechanisms has been difficult. We use the Via Lactea (VL)

Two Conditions for Galaxy Quenching: Compact Centres and Massive Haloes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate the roles of two classes of quenching mechanisms for central and satellite galaxies in the SDSS ($z 10^{11.8}M_{\odot}$ are dense ($\Sigma_{\rm 1kpc} > 10^{9}~ M_{\odot} {\rm kpc}^{-2}$), suggesting compaction-related quenching maintained ...

The Evolving Effect of Cosmic Web Environment on Galaxy Quenching [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2023
We investigate how cosmic web structures affect galaxy quenching in the IllustrisTNG (TNG100) cosmological simulations by reconstructing the cosmic web within each snapshot using the DisPerSE framework.

Exploring supermassive black hole physics and galaxy quenching across halo mass in FIRE cosmological zoom simulations [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022
Feedback from accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) is thought to be a primary driver of quenching in massive galaxies, but how to best implement SMBH physics into galaxy formation simulations remains ambiguous.
