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

No Metallicity Preference in Fast Radio Burst Host Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration extragalactic radio transients of unknown origin, and studying their host galaxies could offer clues to constrain progenitor models.

Selecting Post-starburst Galaxies Based on Star Formation History

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Post-starburst (PSB) galaxies are galaxies that have undergone a large burst of star formation followed by rapid quenching. Understanding their properties as a population can help us better understand how galaxies evolve to quiescence.

SHELLQs-JWST Unveils the Host Galaxies of 12 Quasars at z > 6

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The advent of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has opened new horizons in the study of quasar host galaxies during the reionization epoch ( z  > 6).

Low redshift post-starburst galaxies host abundant HI reservoirs

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics
Studying the gas content of post-starburst (PSB) galaxies can provide valuable clues regarding the process of fast quenching. Although previous works have studied the molecular gas content of PSBs, only a handful of HI measurements exist.

Post-starburst Galaxies in SDSS-IV MaNGA: Two Broad Categories of Evolutionary Pathways

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We study the size–mass relation (SMR) and recent star formation history (SFH) of post-starburst (PSB) galaxies in the local Universe using spatially resolved spectroscopy from the final data release of MaNGA. Our sample includes 489 PSB galaxies: 94 cPSB
