Two main physical processes characterize the activity in the nuclear region of active galaxies: an intense star formation (starburst, SB) and an Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN).

From Starburst to Quiescence: Testing AGN feedback in Rapidly Quenching Post-Starburst Galaxies [PDF]
Post-starbursts are galaxies in transition from the blue cloud to the red sequence. Although they are rare today, integrated over time they may be an important pathway to the red sequence. This work uses SDSS, GALEX, and WISE observations to identify the

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

Cosmic Sands: The Origin of Dusty, Star-forming Galaxies in the Epoch of Reionization
We present the Cosmic Sands suite of cosmological zoom-in simulations based on the simba galaxy formation model in order to study the buildup of the first massive and dusty galaxies in the early universe.

Post-starburst Galaxies in the Centers of Intermediate-redshift Clusters
Abstract We present results from MUSE spatially resolved spectroscopy of 21 post-starburst galaxies in the centers of eight clusters from z ∼ 0.3 to z ∼ 0.4. We measure spatially resolved star formation histories (SFHs), the time since quenching (t Q ), and the fraction of stellar

The Evolution of Post-Starburst Galaxies from $z\sim1$ to the Present
Post-starburst galaxies are in the transitional stage between blue, star-forming galaxies and red, quiescent galaxies, and therefore hold important clues for our understanding of galaxy evolution.

The cold gas content of post-starburst galaxies [PDF]
Post-starburst galaxies, or E+A galaxies, are characterized by optical spectra showing strong Balmer absorption lines, indicating a young stellar population, and little or no emission lines, implying no active star formation. These galaxies are interpreted as a transitional population between star-forming, disc-dominated galaxies and spheroidal ...

Fading AGNs in Poststarburst Galaxies
Abstract The role of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in quenching galaxies and driving the evolution from star forming to quiescence remains a key question in galaxy evolution. We present evidence from the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at APO survey for fading AGN activity in 6/93 poststarburst galaxies. These six galaxies show extended emission
