Bar quenching in gas-rich galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
Galaxy surveys have suggested that rapid and sustained decrease in the star-formation rate (SFR), “quenching”, in massive disk galaxies is frequently related to the presence of a bar. Optical and near-IR observations reveal that nearly 60% of disk galaxies in the local universe are barred, thus it is important to understand the relationship between ...

CANDELS Sheds Light on the Environmental Quenching of Low-mass Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We investigate the environmental quenching of galaxies, especially those with stellar masses (M*)$10^{10.5} M_\odot$) within a redshift range. At a given redshift and M*, the environmental quenching effect is considered to be observed if the $d_{proj ...

Modeling Galactic Conformity with the Color-Halo Age Relation in the Illustris Simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Comparisons between observational surveys and galaxy formation models find that the mass of dark matter haloes can largely explain galaxies' stellar mass.

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.

A Stellar Mass Threshold for Quenching of Field Galaxies

open access: yes, 2012
We demonstrate that dwarf galaxies (10^7 < M_stellar < 10^9 Msun) with no active star formation are extremely rare (

Recently Quenched Galaxies at z = 0.2 - 4.8 in the COSMOS UltraVISTA Field

open access: yes, 2017
We present a new analysis of the stellar mass function and morphology of recently-quenched galaxies (RQGs), whose star formation has been recently quenched for some reason.

Star formation quenching in galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSCIENTIA SINICA Physica, Mechanica & Astronomica, 2017
The cosmic star formation rate density is peaked at $z\sim2$ and declines continuously since then, implying that the quenching of star formation has been the dominating process in galaxy evolution in the past $\sim10$ Gyr. As a result, the present day universe does not contain many star-bursting galaxies, which were the dominating population at $z\sim2$

Galaxy bulges and their black holes: a requirement for the quenching of star formation

open access: yes, 2008
One of the central features of the last 8 to 10 billion years of cosmic history has been the emergence of a well-populated red sequence of non-star-forming galaxies.

Identifying and Distinguishing Quenching Galaxies with Spatially Resolved Star Formation in TNG50

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Using the TNG50 simulation, we determine observationally motivated metrics that can distinguish quenching galaxies from star-forming galaxies for M _* ≥ 10 ^9.5 M _⊙ , based on the spatial distribution of their stellar populations. Quenching galaxies are
