Active Galactic Nucleus Quenching in Simulated Dwarf Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We examine the quenching characteristics of 328 isolated dwarf galaxies $\left({10}^{8}\lt {M}_{\mathrm{star}}/{M}_{\odot }\lt {10}^{10}\right)$ within the Romulus25 cosmological hydrodynamic simulation.

THE QUENCHING TIMESCALE AND QUENCHING RATE OF GALAXIES

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT The average star formation rate (SFR) in galaxies has been declining since the redshift of 2. A fraction of galaxies quench and become quiescent. We constrain two key properties of the quenching process: the quenching timescale and the quenching rate among galaxies.

Early Results from GLASS-JWST. IX. First Spectroscopic Confirmation of Low-mass Quiescent Galaxies at z > 2 with NIRISS

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
How passive galaxies form, and the physical mechanisms which prevent star formation over long timescales, are some of the most outstanding questions in understanding galaxy evolution.

ELVES. III. Environmental Quenching by Milky Way–mass Hosts

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Isolated dwarf galaxies usually exhibit robust star formation but satellite dwarf galaxies are often devoid of young stars, even in Milky Way–mass groups.

Quenched, bulge-dominated, but dynamically cold galaxies in IllustrisTNG and their real-world counterparts

open access: yes, 2022
Galaxy morphologies, kinematics, and stellar populations are thought to be linked to each other. However, both simulations and observations have pointed out mismatches therein.

Bursting and quenching in satellite galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
ABSTRACT The difference in stellar metallicity between red and blue galaxies with the same mass constrains the time-scale over which red galaxies ceased to form stars. Here we investigate this constraint with the galics 2.0 semi-analytic model of galaxy formation.

Galaxy zoo: stronger bars facilitate quenching in star-forming galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021
ABSTRACTWe have used Galaxy Zoo DECaLS (GZD) to study strong and weak bars in disc galaxies. Out of the 314 000 galaxies in GZD, we created a volume-limited sample (0.01 < z < 0.05, Mr < − 18.96) which contains 1867 galaxies with reliable volunteer bar classifications in the ALFALFA footprint.

Searching for Conformity Across Cosmic Time with Local Group and Local Volume Star Formation Histories

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Conformity denotes the correlation of properties between pairs of galaxies as a function of separation. Correlations between properties such as the star formation rate (SFR), stellar mass, and specific star formation rate (sSFR) have implications for the

Quenched fractions in the IllustrisTNG simulations: The roles of AGN feedback, environment, and pre-processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
We use the IllustrisTNG hydrodynamical simulations to show how the fractions of quenched galaxies vary across different environments and cosmic time, and to quantify the role AGN feedback and pre-processing play in quenching group and cluster satellites.

From Halos to Galaxies. VII. The Connections between Stellar Mass Growth History, Quenching History, and Halo Assembly History for Central Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The assembly of galaxies over cosmic time is tightly connected to the assembly of their host dark matter halos. We investigate the stellar mass growth history and the chemical enrichment history of central galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Mapping
