Abstract:We describe the SQuIGG LE survey of intermediate-redshift post-starburst galaxies. We leverage the large sky coverage of the SDSS to select ∼1300 recently-quenched galaxies at 0.5 < z ≤ 0.9 based on their unique spectral shapes. These bright, intermediate-redshift galaxies are ideal laboratories to study the physics responsible for the rapid quenching of star formation: they are distant enough to be useful analogs for high-redshift quenching galaxies, but low enough redshift that multi-wavelength follow-up obs… Show more
