The identification of post-starburst galaxies at z~1 using multiwavelength photometry : a spectroscopic verification [PDF]

, 2016
Despite decades of study, we still do not fully understand why somemassive galaxies abruptly switch off their star formation in the early Universe, and what causes their rapid transition to the red sequence.Post-starburst galaxies provide a rare ...

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

The 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).

Post-starburst galaxies: more than just an interesting curiosity

, 2009
18 pages, 12 figures, to match version accepted to MNRAS. Minor reordering of text in places and Sec 2.2 on SPH simulation comparisons expandedFrom the VIMOS VLT DEEP Survey (VVDS) we select a sample of 16 galaxies with spectra which identify them as ...

Low redshift post-starburst galaxies host abundant HI reservoirs

The 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.

Spatially Resolved Spectroscopy of Starburst and Post-Starburst Galaxies in the Rich z ∼0.55 Cluster CL 0016+16

, 2010
We have used the Low Resolution Imaging Spectrograph on the W. M. Keck I telescope to obtain spatially resolved spectroscopy of a small sample of six ‘post-starburst’ and three ‘dusty-starburst’ galaxies in the rich cluster CL 0016+16 at z = 0.55. We use

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

The 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

The infrared luminosity of retired and post-starburst galaxies: A cautionary tale for star formation rate measurements

The Open Journal of Astrophysics
In galaxies with significant ongoing star formation there is an impressively tight correlation between total infrared luminosity (L${\mathstrut}_{TIR}$) and H$\alpha$ luminosity (L${\mathstrut}_{H\alpha}$), when H$\alpha$ is properly corrected for ...

Can Supernovae Quench Star Formation in High-z Galaxies?

The Astrophysical Journal
JWST is providing a unique opportunity to directly study the feedback processes regulating star formation (SF) in early galaxies. The two z > 5 quiescent systems (JADES-GS-z7-01-QU and MACS0417-z5BBG) detected so far show a recent starburst after which ...

Massive post-starburst galaxies at z > 1 are compact proto-spheroids [PDF]

, 2017
We investigate the relationship between the quenching of star formation and the structural transformation of massive galaxies, using a large sample of photometrically-selected poststarburst galaxies in the UKIDSS UDS field.
