The SAGA Survey. V. Modeling Satellite Systems around Milky Way–Mass Galaxies with Updated UniverseMachine

The Astrophysical Journal
Environment plays a critical role in shaping the assembly of low-mass galaxies. Here, we use the U niverse M achine (UM) galaxy–halo connection framework and Data Release 3 of the Satellites Around Galactic Analogs (SAGA) Survey to place dwarf galaxy ...

The quenching of star formation in galaxies

, 2018
This thesis is concerned with investigating what makes star formation inefficient in galaxies. Cosmological, hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation show that the energy produced in stars, supernova explosions and active galactic nuclei must couple back into a galaxy’s interstellar medium to prevent excess star formation.

Galaxy evolution in the post-merger regime. II -- Post-merger quenching peaks within 500 Myr of coalescence

The Open Journal of Astrophysics
Mechanisms 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

Exploring Lenticular Galaxy Formation in Field Environments Using NewHorizon: Evidence for Counterrotating Gas Accretion as a Formation Channel

The Astrophysical Journal
The formation pathways of lenticular galaxies (S0s) in field environments remain a matter of debate. We utilize the cosmological hydrodynamic simulation, NewHorizon , to investigate the issue. We select two massive star formation quenched S0s as our main

The Structure and Formation Histories of Low-mass Quiescent Galaxies in the A2744 Cluster Environment

The Astrophysical Journal
Low-mass quiescent galaxies are thought to predominantly reside in overdense regions, as environmental effects are often invoked to explain their shutdown of star formation. These longer-timescale quenching mechanisms—such as interactions with hot gas in

On the Origin of Quenched but Gas-rich Regions at Kiloparsec Scales in Nearby Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal
We use resolved spectroscopy from MaNGA to investigate the significance of both local and global properties of galaxies to the cessation of star formation at kpc scales.

Hedgehog: An Isolated Quiescent Dwarf Galaxy at 2.4 Mpc

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
It is well known that almost all isolated dwarf galaxies are actively forming stars. We report the discovery of dw1322m2053 (nicknamed Hedgehog), an isolated quiescent dwarf galaxy at a distance of 2.40 ± 0.15 Mpc with a stellar mass of M _⋆ ≈ 10 ^5.8 M ...
