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,

Mapping stellar content to dark matter halos. II. Halo mass is the main driver of galaxy quenching

, 2015
We develop a simple yet comprehensive method to distinguish the underlying drivers of galaxy quenching, using the clustering and galaxy-galaxy lensing of red and blue galaxies in SDSS.

Effect of local environment and stellar mass on galaxy quenching and morphology at $0.5

, 2017
We study galactic star-formation activity as a function of environment and stellar mass over 0.5 0.5 it depends on galaxy stellar mass, demonstrating that the effects of quenching related to (stellar) mass and environment are not separable.

MOSFIRE Spectroscopy of Quiescent Galaxies at 1.5 < z < 2.5. II - Star Formation Histories and Galaxy Quenching [PDF]

, 2019
We investigate the stellar populations for a sample of 24 quiescent galaxies at 1.5 < z < 2.5 using deep rest-frame optical spectra obtained with Keck MOSFIRE. By fitting templates simultaneously to the spectroscopic and photometric data, and exploring a

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 ...

Photometric Objects Around Cosmic Webs (PAC). VII. Disentangling Mass and Environment Quenching with the Aid of Galaxy–Halo Connection in Simulations

The Astrophysical Journal
Star formation quenching in galaxies plays a crucial role in galaxy evolution and is believed to be driven primarily by galaxy mass and environment.
