Strong Scatterings Invalidate Proposed Models of Enhanced Tidal Disruption Event Rates in Post-starburst Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Stars wandering too close to supermassive black holes (SMBHs) can be ripped apart by the tidal forces of the black hole. Recent optical surveys have revealed that E+A galaxies are over-represented by a factor of ∼30, while green galaxies are over ...

The Spectral Energy Distribution of Post-Starburst Galaxies in the NEWFIRM Medium-Band Survey: A Low Contribution from TP-AGB Stars

open access: yes, 2010
Stellar population synthesis (SPS) models are a key ingredient of many galaxy evolution studies. Unfortunately, the models are still poorly calibrated for certain stellar evolution stages.

Do Red Galaxies Form More Stars than Blue Galaxies?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A new model is proposed in which typical galaxies form most of their stellar mass in a phase with an intrinsically red stellar population. In the standard picture, galaxies with intrinsically red stellar populations are believed to have old stellar ...

Deep spectroscopy of nearby galaxy clusters: IV The quench of the star formation in galaxies in the infall region of Abell\ 85

open access: yes, 2018
Our aim is to understand the role of the environment in the quenching of star formation of galaxies located in the infall cluster region of Abell 85 (A85).

Sparks. II. Panchromatic Spectral Energy Distribution Modeling and Galaxy Physical Properties across the Starburst to Post-starburst Sequence

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Sparks survey provides rest-frame near-infrared spectroscopy for 93 local massive galaxies spanning the rapid transition from starburst to post-starburst, including Balmer-strong galaxies as well as systems with active galactic nuclei (AGNs ...

The PDS vs. Markarian starburst galaxies: comparing strong and weak IRAS emitter at 12$\mu$m and 25$\mu$m in the nearby universe

open access: yes, 2003
(Abridged) The characteristics of the starburst galaxies from the Pico dos Dias survey (PDS) are compared with those of the nearby UV-bright Markarian starburst galaxies, having the same limit in redshift ($v_h < 7500$ km s$^{-1}$) and absolute $B ...

DESI Massive Poststarburst Galaxies at z ∼ 1.2 Have Compact Structures and Dense Cores

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Poststarburst galaxies (PSBs) are young quiescent galaxies that have recently experienced a rapid decrease in star formation, allowing us to probe the fast-quenching period of galaxy evolution.

Optical and near infrared photometry of Butcher-Oemler clusters [PDF]

open access: yes
Rich clusters of galaxies at moderate redshifts (z approx. .3) have a larger proportion of optically blue galaxies than their low redshift counterparts.

SQuIGG E: Observational Evidence of Low Ongoing Star Formation Rates in Gas-rich Post-starburst Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array observations have shown that candidate “post-starburst” galaxies (PSBs) at z  ∼ 0.6 can retain significant molecular gas reservoirs.
