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.

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

open access: yesThe 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 ...

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

From starburst to quiescence : testing AGN feedback in rapidly Quenching post-starburst galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We acknowledge financial support from the NSF grant AST-0808133. C.C.H. is grateful to the Klaus Tschira Foundation for financial support.Post-starbursts are galaxies in transition from the blue cloud to the red sequence.

Can Supernovae Quench Star Formation in High-z Galaxies?

open access: yesThe 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 ...
