The Size–Mass Relation of Post-starburst Galaxies in the Local Universe

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
Abstract We present a study of the size–mass relation for local post-starburst (PSB) galaxies at z ≲ 0.33 selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 8. We find that PSB galaxies with stellar mass (M *) at 109 M ☉ < M * < 1012 M

After The Fall: Resolving the Molecular Gas in Post-starburst Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
Abstract Post-starburst (PSB), or “E + A,” galaxies represent a rapid transitional phase between major, gas-rich mergers and gas-poor, quiescent, early-type galaxies. Surprisingly, many PSBs have been shown to host a significant interstellar medium (ISM), despite theoretical predictions that the majority of the star-forming gas should be

Comparing Star Formation Histories and Evolutionary Pathways of Post-starburst and E+A Galaxies in TNG50 and SDSS-IV MaNGA

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
E+A galaxies represent a class of recently quenched objects, with spectra that show evidence of a previous substantial starburst and strong Balmer absorption lines indicative of A-type stellar populations.

A polarimetry study of starburst galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Optical imaging polarimetry has been carried out for a number of starburst galaxies under various morphological classifications. In several cases, kpc-scale reflection nebulae are detected which arise from dust grains scattering starburst radiation ...

Starburst Galaxies in Their Last Billion Years: An Hδ Absorption Line Selected Sample

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
In this paper, we focus on the study of starburst galaxies in their final billion years. Our galaxy selection is based solely on the presence of the H δ absorption line, which permits the later evolution of starburst galaxies to be traced, coinciding ...

DESI Survey Validation Spectra Reveal an Increasing Fraction of Recently Quenched Galaxies at z ∼ 1

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We utilize ∼17,000 bright luminous red galaxies (LRGs) from the novel Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument Survey Validation spectroscopic sample, leveraging its deep (∼2.5 hr galaxy ^−1 exposure time) spectra to characterize the contribution of recently

The Post-starburst Evolution of Tidal Disruption Event Host Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2017
Abstract We constrain the recent star formation histories of the host galaxies of eight optical/UV-detected tidal disruption events (TDEs). Six hosts had quick starbursts of <200 Myr duration that ended 10–1000 Myr ago, indicating that TDEs arise at different times in their hosts’ post-starburst evolution. If the disrupted star formed
