Despite decades of study, we still do not fully understand why some massive galaxies abruptly switch off their star formation in the early Universe, and what causes their rapid transition to the red sequence. Post-starburst galaxies provide a rare op... Read More about The identification of post-starburst galaxies at z∼1 using multiwavelength photometry: a spectroscopic verification.
