Context. Galaxies may suffer some starburst and quenched periods in their history due to galaxy mergers and feedback. However, semi-numerical simulations of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) do not accurately model the effects of the star formation history

Post-starburst galaxies in the COSMOS field at z < 0.45

Post-starburst galaxies (PSBs) are key to understanding how galaxies transition from active star formation to quiescence. We identify 36 PSBs by spectroscopic selection in the COSMOS field at z < 0.45.

Spatially resolved star-formation histories of local post-starburst galaxies: Starburst and quenching spatial patterns consistent with recent mergers

Post-starburst (PSB) galaxies, having recently experienced a starburst followed by rapid quenching, are excellent laboratories to probe physical mechanisms that drive starbursts and shutting down of star formation. Integral-field spectroscopy reveals the

Population Models for Star Formation Timescales in Early Galaxies: The First Step toward Solving Outshining in Star Formation History Inference

The Astrophysical Journal
James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has revealed temporarily quenched and ultraviolet-luminous galaxies in the early Universe, suggesting enhanced star formation stochasticity. Verifying this hypothesis is critical yet challenging.

A Tale of Tails: Star Formation and Stripping in Jellyfish Galaxies in the Strong Lensing Cluster MACS J0138.0-2155

The Open Journal of Astrophysics
We investigate the effects of ram-pressure stripping on four galaxies within the massive, strong-lensing cluster MACS-J0138.0-2155 ($z=0.336$). Of these, three are classified as jellyfish galaxies, with significant elongated tails. Two of these jellyfish

Quiescent Host Galaxies of Extended Quasars Revealed by Spectrophotometric Decomposition

The Astrophysical Journal
Previous works of low-redshift quasar host galaxies have focused on compact quasars and found that their host galaxies are mainly star-forming galaxies.

Post-Starburst Galaxies in Clusters from the GASP Survey.

, 2018
Post-starburst galaxies, also known as k+a galaxies, show no sign of emission lines and prominent Balmer absorption lines in their spectra. They are in a transitional phase between the star forming and the passive galaxies. I present here the study of a

New Methods for Tracking Galaxy and Black Hole Evolution Using Post-Starburst Galaxies

, 2017
Galaxies in transition from star-forming to quiescence are a natural laboratory for exploring the processes responsible for this evolution. Using a sample of post-starburst galaxies identified to have recently experienced a recent burst of star formation
