Chemical Evolution of the Universe and its Consequences for Gravitational‐Wave Astrophysics

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 536, Issue 2, February 2024.
Population properties of double compact object mergers (especially binary black holes) are sensitive to the metallicity dependent cosmic star formation history. The uncertainty of this quantity cannot be ignored and makes the interpretation of current gravitational wave observations difficult.

Welcome to the Twilight Zone: The Mid-Infrared Properties of Poststarburst Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We investigate the optical and Wide-field Survey Explorer (WISE) colors of "E+A" identified post-starburst galaxies, including a deep analysis on 190 post-starbursts detected in the 2{\mu}m All Sky Survey Extended Source Catalog.

Cold Gas in a Post-starburst Pair in the z ∼ 1.4 HeavyMetal Survey: Major Mergers as a Pathway to Retain Gas in Quenched Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Recent observations at low redshift have revealed that some post-starburst galaxies retain significant molecular gas reservoirs despite low ongoing star formation rates, challenging most theoretical predictions that rely on heating or expelling gas ...

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.

Post-starburst galaxies in simulations and observations

open access: yes, 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

An Atlas of Color-selected Quiescent Galaxies at z > 3 in Public JWST Fields

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present the results of a systematic search for candidate quiescent galaxies in the distant universe in 11 JWST fields with publicly available observations collected during the first 3 months of operations and covering an effective sky area of ∼145 ...

On the Origin of [OII] Emission in Red Sequence and Post-starburst Galaxies

open access: yes, 2005
We investigate the emission-line properties of galaxies with red rest-frame colors using spectra from SDSS DR4. Emission lines are detected in more than half of the red galaxies.

Shape asymmetry : a morphological indicator for automatic detection of galaxies in the post-coalescence merger stages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present a new morphological indicator designed for automated recognition of galaxies with faint asymmetric tidal features suggestive of an ongoing or past merger.

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 ...
