We present an analysis of AGN activity within recently quenched massive galaxies at cosmic noon (𝑧 ∼ 2), using deep Chandra X-ray observations of the Ultra-Deep Survey (UDS) field. Our sample includes over 4000 massive galaxies (𝑀∗ > 10^10.5 M⊙) in t... Read More about No evidence for excess AGN activity in recently quenched massive galaxies at cosmic noon.
