A Multiwavelength Evaluation of AGN in the Post-starburst Phase
The Astrophysical JournalThe quenching of star formation is a crucial phase in galaxy evolution. Although feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) has been proposed as a key driver of this transition, the lack of strong AGN in nearby quenching galaxies raises questions about ...

The Astrophysical JournalStars wandering too close to supermassive black holes (SMBHs) can be ripped apart by the tidal forces of the black hole. Recent optical surveys have revealed that E+A galaxies are over-represented by a factor of ∼30, while green galaxies are over ...

The Structure Of Post-Starburst Galaxies In The Early Universe
, 2017 Despite decades of study, we still do not fully understand why some massive galaxies abruptly switch off their star formation in the early Universe, and what causes their rapid transition to the red sequence. Post-starburst galaxies (PSBs) are key to understanding this transition phase, as they represent systems in which a major burst of star formation

, 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.

Do Red Galaxies Form More Stars than Blue Galaxies?
The Astrophysical JournalA new model is proposed in which typical galaxies form most of their stellar mass in a phase with an intrinsically red stellar population. In the standard picture, galaxies with intrinsically red stellar populations are believed to have old stellar ...

From starburst to quiescence : testing AGN feedback in rapidly Quenching post-starburst galaxies
, 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.

DESI Massive Poststarburst Galaxies at z ∼ 1.2 Have Compact Structures and Dense Cores
The Astrophysical JournalPoststarburst galaxies (PSBs) are young quiescent galaxies that have recently experienced a rapid decrease in star formation, allowing us to probe the fast-quenching period of galaxy evolution.
