The Evolution of the Interstellar Medium in Post-starburst Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2019
Abstract We derive dust masses (M dust) from the spectral energy distributions of 58 post-starburst galaxies (PSBs). There is an anticorrelation between specific dust mass (M dust/M ⋆) and the time elapsed since the starburst ended, indicating that dust was either destroyed, expelled,

Post‐starburst galaxies and the transformation of blue into red galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, 2009
AbstractWe present deep single‐dish radio observations of a sample of nearby post‐starburst galaxies (0.05 < z < 0.1). About 50% of these post‐starburst galaxies are detected at 21 cm, with HI masses of ∼109 M⊙, up to ∼1010 M⊙. These post‐starburst galaxies are as gas‐rich as spiral galaxies with comparable luminosities. There appears to exist no

Evidence for multiple types of post-starburst galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
The quenching mechanisms of galaxies are not yet fully understood, but post-starburst galaxies provide one explanation for the rapid transition between star-forming and quiescent galaxies. At low redshift, it is generally thought that the starburst initiating the post-starburst phase is merger-driven, however, not all post-starburst galaxies show ...

The origins of post-starburst galaxies at z < 0.05 [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
Post-starburst galaxies can be identified via the presence of prominent Hydrogen Balmer absorption lines in their spectra. We present a comprehensive study of the origin of strong Balmer lines in a volume-limited sample of 189 galaxies with $0.019.5$ and projected axis ratio $b/a>0.32$.

Post-starburst galaxies and the galaxy color bimodality

open access: yesIl Nuovo Cimento B, 2008
We present results from a multi-wavelength observing campaign of a sample of post-starburst galaxies. The origin and redshift evolution of the bimodal galaxy color distribution is at the focus of current extragalactic and cosmological research. Post-starburst galaxies have just experienced a strong and abruptly truncated starburst, causing them to ...

Spatially Resolved Kinematics of Post-starburst Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Star-forming galaxies can reach quiescence via rapid transition through merger-triggered starbursts that consequently affect both their kinematics and star formation rates.

Chemical abundances in the dwarf galaxy NGC 4163 based on the nebular and auroral emission lines

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 343, Issue 9-10, November-December 2022., 2022
Abstract We constructed an oxygen abundance map and N/O ratio map of the unusually low excitation dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 4163 based on publicly available spectroscopy obtained by the MaNGA survey. We detected auroral emission line [O II]λλ$$ \lambda \lambda $$7320,7330 which allows us to measure chemical abundance by direct Te$$ {\mathrm{T}}_e ...
