Quenching massive galaxies

Event Start:
2021-07-21T15:00:00
Event End:
2021-07-21T16:00:00
Event Information:

How and why galaxies grow in stellar mass and cease their star formation are key open questions of galaxy formation and evolution. I present evidence for a diversity of pathways for building up the quiescent galaxy population at early cosmic times. Specifically, I will present observational constraints on star-formation histories and quenching timescales by combining Keck DEIMOS spectroscopic data with >10-band photometry.
