Resolved stellar mass maps of galaxies in the Hubble Frontier Fields : evidence for mass dependency in environmental quenching Ghent University
One of the challenges in understanding the quenching processes for galaxies is connecting progenitor star-forming populations to their descendant quiescent populations over cosmic time. Here we attempt a novel approach to this challenge by assuming that the underlying stellar mass distribution of galaxies is not significantly altered during environmental-quenching processes that solely affect the gas content of cluster galaxies, such as ...
