Environmental quenching of low-mass field galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018 In the local Universe, there is a strong division in the star-forming properties of low-mass galaxies, with star formation largely ubiquitous amongst the field population while satellite systems are predominantly quenched. This dichotomy implies that environmental processes play the dominant role in suppressing star formation within this low-mass ...

Galaxy Zoo: Major Galaxy Mergers Are Not a Significant Quenching Pathway* [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2017 Abstract We use stellar mass functions to study the properties and the significance of quenching through major galaxy mergers. In addition to SDSS DR7 and Galaxy Zoo 1 data, we use samples of visually selected major galaxy mergers and post-merger galaxies.

Quenching of satellite galaxies at the outskirts of galaxy clusters [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018 We find, using cosmological simulations of galaxy clusters, that the hot X-ray emitting intra-cluster medium (ICM) enclosed within the outer accretion shock extends out to $R_{\rm shock}\sim(2 - 3) R_{\rm vir}$, where $R_{\rm vir}$ is the standard virial radius of the halo.

AGN-driven quenching of satellite galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019 ABSTRACT We explore the effect of active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback from central galaxies on their satellites by comparing two sets of cosmological zoom-in runs of 27 haloes with masses ranging from 1012 to 1013.4$\rm {M}_{\odot}$ at z = 0, with (wAGN) and without (noAGN) AGN feedback.

THE QUENCHING TIMESCALE AND QUENCHING RATE OF GALAXIES
The Astrophysical Journal, 2016 ABSTRACT The average star formation rate (SFR) in galaxies has been declining since the redshift of 2. A fraction of galaxies quench and become quiescent. We constrain two key properties of the quenching process: the quenching timescale and the quenching rate among galaxies.

What drives galaxy quenching? A deep connection between galaxy kinematics and quenching in the local Universe [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022 ABSTRACT We develop a 2D inclined rotating disc model, which we apply to the stellar velocity maps of 1862 galaxies taken from the MaNGA survey (SDSS public Data Release 15) . We use a random forest classifier to identify the kinematic parameters that are most connected to galaxy quenching.

Satellite dwarf galaxies: stripped but not quenched [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2019 In the Local Group, quenched gas-poor dwarfs galaxies are most often found close to the Milky Way and Andromeda, while star forming gas-rich ones are located at greater distances. This so-called morphology-density relation is often interpreted as the consequence of the ram pressure stripping of the satellites during their interaction with the Milky Way
