The evolution of the content of heavy elements in galaxies, the relative chemical
abundances, their spatial distribution, and how these scale with various galactic properties …

Observations of galaxy isophotes, long-slit kinematics, and high-resolution photometry
suggested a possible dichotomy between two distinct classes of elliptical galaxies. But these …

ABSTRACT I introduce some improvements to the ppxf method, which measures the stellar
and gas kinematics, star formation history (SFH) and chemical composition of galaxies. I …

We present the full public release of all data from the TNG100 and TNG300 simulations of
the IllustrisTNG project. IllustrisTNG is a suite of large volume, cosmological, gravo …

It is now 16 years since the first data release from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS; York
et al. 2000). This Early Data Release, or EDR, occurred in 2001 June (Stoughton et al …

One of the key open questions in extragalactic astronomy is what stops star formation in
galaxies. While it is clear that the cold gas reservoir, which fuels the formation of new stars …

I start by providing an updated summary of the penalized pixel-fitting (ppxf) method that is
used to extract the stellar and gas kinematics, as well as the stellar population of galaxies …

We describe the sample design for the SDSS-IV MaNGA survey and present the final
properties of the main samples along with important considerations for using these samples …

ABSTRACT The MaNGA Survey (Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory) is
one of three core programs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV. It is obtaining integral field …

We investigate how star formation quenching proceeds within central and satellite galaxies
using spatially resolved spectroscopy from the SDSS-IV MaNGA DR15. We adopt a …
