The role of stochastic and smooth processes in regulating galaxy quenching [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2021
Context. Galaxies can be classified as passive ellipticals or star-forming discs. Ellipticals dominate at the high end of the mass range, and therefore there must be a mechanism responsible for the quenching of star-forming galaxies. This could either be

Signatures of quenching in dwarf galaxies in local galaxy clusters [PDF]

open access: bronzeAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2021
Context. The transformation of late-type galaxies has been suggested as the origin of early-type dwarf galaxies (typically M⋆ ≤ 109 M⊙) in galaxy clusters. Based on deep images, Venhola and colleagues analysed correlations between colour and surface brightness for galaxies in the Fornax cluster binned by luminosity or stellar mass. In the bins with M⋆ &

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.

From Clusters to Proto-Clusters: The Infrared Perspective on Environmental Galaxy Evolution

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Environment is one of the primary drivers of galaxy evolution; via multiple mechanisms, it can control the critical process of transforming galaxies from star forming to quiescent, commonly termed “quenching”. Despite its importance, however, we still do

What drives galaxy quenching? Resolving molecular gas and star formation in the green valley [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2020
We study quenching in seven green valley galaxies on kpc scales by resolving their molecular gas content using 12CO(1–0) observations obtained with NOrthern Extended Millimeter Array and Atacama Large Millimeter Array, and their star formation rate ...

Bursting and quenching in satellite galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
ABSTRACT The difference in stellar metallicity between red and blue galaxies with the same mass constrains the time-scale over which red galaxies ceased to form stars. Here we investigate this constraint with the galics 2.0 semi-analytic model of galaxy formation.

The Fundamental Signature of Star Formation Quenching from AGN Feedback: A Critical Dependence of Quiescence on Supermassive Black Hole Mass, Not Accretion Rate

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We identify the intrinsic dependence of star formation quenching on a variety of galactic and environmental parameters, utilizing a machine-learning approach with Random Forest classification.

The Morphological Transformation and the Quenching of Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2019
Abstract We study the morphological transformation from late types to early types and the quenching of galaxies with the seventh Data Release (DR7) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Both early-type galaxies and late-type galaxies are found to have bimodal distributions on the star formation rate versus stellar mass diagram (lg SFR–lg M

Quenching of satellite galaxies at the outskirts of galaxy clusters [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly 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.
