Star formation quenching in galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSCIENTIA SINICA Physica, Mechanica & Astronomica, 2017
The cosmic star formation rate density is peaked at $z\sim2$ and declines continuously since then, implying that the quenching of star formation has been the dominating process in galaxy evolution in the past $\sim10$ Gyr. As a result, the present day universe does not contain many star-bursting galaxies, which were the dominating population at $z\sim2$

PAC. V. The Roles of Mass and Environment in the Quenching of Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The roles that mass and environment play in galaxy quenching are still under debate. Leveraging the Photometric objects Around Cosmic webs method, we analyze the excess surface distribution ${\bar{n}}_{2}{w}_{{\rm{p}}}({r}_{{\rm{p}}})$ of photometric ...

Expected value, to a point: Moral decision‐making under background uncertainty

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
Abstract Expected value maximization gives plausible guidance for moral decision‐making under uncertainty in many situations. But it has unappetizing implications in ‘Pascalian’ situations involving tiny probabilities of extreme outcomes. This paper shows, first, that under realistic levels of ‘background uncertainty’ about sources of value independent

Hot gas in massive halos drives both mass quenching and environment quenching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Observations indicate that galaxies with high stellar masses or in dense environments have low specific star formation rates, i.e. they are quenched. Based on cosmological hydrodynamic simulations that include a prescription where quenching occurs in regions dominated by hot (>10^5 K) gas, we argue that this hot gas quenching in halos >10^12 Msun ...

Light Quantity Impacts Early Response to Cold and Cold Acclimation in Young Leaves of Arabidopsis

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant reactions to stress vary with development stage and fitness. This study assessed the relationship between light and chilling stress in Arabidopsis acclimation. By analysing the transcriptome and proteome responses of expanding leaves subjected to varying light intensity and cold, 2251 and 2064 early response genes and proteins were ...

The unorthodox evolution of major merger remnants into star-forming spiral galaxies

open access: yes, 2017
Galaxy mergers are believed to play a key role in transforming star-forming disk galaxies into quenched ellipticals. Most of our theoretical knowledge about such morphological transformations does, however, rely on idealised simulations where processes ...

Galaxy quenching in various environments

open access: yes, 2023
Already early studies of the morphology-density relation of galaxies showed that early-type galaxies lie in the centres of rich clusters, and in small groups in filaments between clusters, where they are located closer to filament axis than late-type galaxies. This means that galaxies are indeed pre-processed in groups. In our present study we searched

Dynamical Hotness, Star Formation Quenching, and Growth of Supermassive Black Holes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
A stellar system is dynamically hot when its kinetic energy is dominated by random motion represented by the velocity dispersion σ _hot . We use MaNGA data to obtain the inner and outer dispersion of a galaxy, σ _in and σ _out , to characterize its ...

Analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates by matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry: An update for 2021–2022

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 44, Issue 3, Page 213-453, May/June 2025.
Abstract The use of matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates is a well‐established technique and this review is the 12th update of the original article published in 1999 and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2022.

VERTICO. VII. Environmental Quenching Caused by the Suppression of Molecular Gas Content and Star Formation Efficiency in Virgo Cluster Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We study how environment regulates the star formation cycle of 33 Virgo Cluster satellite galaxies on 720 pc scales. We present the resolved star-forming main sequence for cluster galaxies, dividing the sample based on their global H i properties and ...
