There was a star-forming galaxy that was quenched
, 2022 Cluster galaxies are subject to a whole range of processes and interactions that dramatically change their properties. To shed light on these issues, we analyze the most homogeneous and complete local cluster galaxy survey to date: WINGS/OmegaWINGS, and use stellar population synthesis techniques to obtain properties such as stellar mass, stellar ages,

ΣSFR–M ∗ Diagram: A Valuable Galaxy Evolution Diagnostic to Complement (s)SFR–M ∗ Diagrams
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The specific star formation rate (sSFR) is commonly used to describe the level of galaxy star formation (SF) and to select quenched galaxies. However, since it is a relative measure of the young-to-old population, an ambiguity in its interpretation may ...

The Roles of Mass and Environment in the Quenching of Galaxies. II. [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2020 Abstract We take advantage of an analytic model of galaxy formation coupled to the merger tree of an N-body simulation to study the roles of environment and stellar mass in the quenching of galaxies. The model has been originally set in order to provide the observed evolution of the stellar mass function as well as reasonable predictions

The imprint of cosmic web quenching on central galaxies
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021 ABSTRACT We investigate how cosmic web environment impacts the average properties of central galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We analyse how the average specific star formation rate, stellar age, metallicity, and element abundance ratio [α/Fe] of SDSS central galaxies depend on distance from the cosmic web nodes, walls ...

Zeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, EarlyView.The crystal structures of the high‐temperature and low‐temperature phases of silver pyrophosphate are reported. The structural results are complemented by thermal analysis, vibrational and 31P‐MAS‐NMR spectroscopy studies, and density functional theory calculations.

Death by Impact: Evidence for Merger-driven Quenching in a Collisional Ring Galaxy at Cosmic Noon
The Astrophysical JournalThe role of interactions and mergers in the rapid quenching of massive galaxies in the early Universe remains uncertain, largely due to the difficulty of directly linking mergers to quenching.

The Great Cosmic Silence: What Does the Fermi Paradox Tell About the Future of Humanity?
Global Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article examines how institutional time horizons shape the long‐term survival prospects of human technological civilisation. While research on global catastrophic and existential risks has expanded, the temporal structures of political‐economic institutions remain underexamined.
