The green valley is a red herring: Galaxy Zoo reveals two evolutionary pathways towards quenching of star formation in early-and late-type galaxies
Abstract We use SDSS+ GALEX+ Galaxy Zoo data to study the quenching of star formation
in low-redshift galaxies. We show that the green valley between the blue cloud of star …

Galaxy pairs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey–IV. Interactions trigger active galactic nuclei
Galaxy–galaxy interactions are predicted to cause gas inflows leading to enhanced nuclear
star formation. This prediction is borne out observationally, and is also supported by the gas …

Morphology-density relation, quenching, and mergers in CARLA clusters and protoclusters at 1.4< z< 2.8
At redshifts of z≲ 1.3, early-type galaxies (ETGs) and passive galaxies are mainly found in
dense environments, such as galaxy clusters. However, it remains unclear whether these …
