The merger fraction of post-starburst galaxies in UNIONS

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022
ABSTRACT Post-starburst galaxies (PSBs) are defined as having experienced a recent burst of star formation, followed by a prompt truncation in further activity. Identifying the mechanism(s) causing a galaxy to experience a post-starburst phase therefore provides integral insight into the causes of rapid quenching.

Red Post-Starburst Galaxies

Astrophysics and Space Science, 1994
Observations of nearby star-forming regions suggest that the initial mass function is deficient in low-mass stars when the ambient star formation rate is high. We investigate the consequences of a truncated initial mass function on the photometric evolution of star burst galaxies using new models of stellar population synthesis. A major prediction with

Post-starburst galaxies in simulations and observations

2022
Post-starburst (PSB) galaxies are the galaxies in which star formation has recently been sharply truncated, as indicated by strong Balmer absorption lines alongside weak or absent nebular emission lines. PSBs are believed to be an important transitional state between the star- forming and quiescent populations, and could be important candidates for the

The UV enigma of post-starburst galaxies

Astrophysics and Space Science, 2014
We have studied the panchromatic broad-band properties from the FUV to the MIR of a sample of 808 post-starburst galaxies. We find that in the optical and near-IR bands post-starburst galaxies (PSGs) form a remarkably uniform class of objects and that, on average, simple populations synthesis models (SSP) reproduce very well the SEDs of PSGs over a ...

Post-starburst galaxies in different environments

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2019
AbstractPost-starburst galaxies (PSBGs) are systems that experienced a burst followed by a rapid quenching of star formation. However, it is still unclear what causes these events and what is the environmental role in the origin of PSBGs. To address this, we analysed sizes, morphologies, ages, and metallicities of PSBGs at 0.05 ≤ z ≤ 0.1 in groups and ...
