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 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 ...

MOSFIRE Spectroscopy of Quiescent Galaxies at 1.5 < z < 2.5. II - Star Formation Histories and Galaxy Quenching [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2019 We investigate the stellar populations for a sample of 24 quiescent galaxies at 1.5 < z < 2.5 using deep rest-frame optical spectra obtained with Keck MOSFIRE. By fitting templates simultaneously to the spectroscopic and photometric data, and exploring a

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.

Mapping stellar content to dark matter halos. II. Halo mass is the main driver of galaxy quenching [PDF]
, 2015 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.

Two Conditions for Galaxy Quenching: Compact Centres and Massive Haloes [PDF]
, 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 Open Journal of AstrophysicsMechanisms for quenching star formation in galaxies remain hotly debated, with galaxy mergers an oft-proposed pathway. In Ellison et al. (2022) we tested this scenario by quantifying the fraction of recently and rapidly quenched post-starbursts (PSBs) in

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