Probing Satellite Quenching With Galaxy Clustering [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2014
Satellites within simulated massive clusters are significantly spatially correlated with each other, even when those satellites are not gravitationally bound to each other.

How to quench a galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016
We show how the interplay between active galactic nuclei (AGN) and merger history determines whether a galaxy quenches star formation at high redshift. We first simulate, in a full cosmological context, a galaxy of total dynamical mass $10^{12}\,M_{\odot}

The First Quenched Galaxies: When and How?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Many quiescent galaxies discovered in the early Universe by JWST raise fundamental questions on when and how these galaxies became and stayed quenched. Making use of the latest version of the semianalytic model GAEA that provides good agreement with the ...

A Dichotomy in Satellite Quenching Around L* Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2013
We examine the star formation properties of bright (~0.1 L*) satellites around isolated ~L* hosts in the local Universe using spectroscopically confirmed systems in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR7. Our selection method is carefully designed with the aid

Star formation quenching in massive galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2018
Understanding how and why star formation turns off in massive galaxies is a major challenge for studies of galaxy evolution. Many theoretical explanations have been proposed, but a definitive consensus is yet to be reached.Comment: Comment published in ...

Merger Shocks Enhance Quenching in Local Galaxy Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report evidence for enhanced quenching in low-redshift galaxy clusters hosting radio relics. This effect is strongest for low-mass galaxies and is consistent with a rapid quenching of star formation.

Galaxy zoo: stronger bars facilitate quenching in star-forming galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021
ABSTRACTWe have used Galaxy Zoo DECaLS (GZD) to study strong and weak bars in disc galaxies. Out of the 314 000 galaxies in GZD, we created a volume-limited sample (0.01 < z < 0.05, Mr < − 18.96) which contains 1867 galaxies with reliable volunteer bar classifications in the ALFALFA footprint.

Quenched Galaxies in Clusters of Galaxies and Their Outskirts [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Bulletin, 2020
Based on the SDSS data, the properties of galaxies with quenched star formation (QGs) within the "splashback"-radius of galaxy clusters $R_{\rm sp}$ and beyond it have been studied.

Quenching star formation in cluster galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2014
In order to understand the processes that quench star formation within rich clusters, we construct a library of subhalo orbits drawn from $ $CDM cosmological N-body simulations of four rich clusters. The orbits are combined with models of star formation followed by quenching in the cluster environment.
