We present a detailed investigation into the recent star formation histories of 5697 luminous red galaxies (LRGs) based on the Hδ (4101 Å), and [O II] (3727 Å) lines and the D4000 index. LRGs are luminous (L > 3L*) galaxies which have been selected t... Read More about The 2dF-SDSS LRG and QSO Survey: the star formation histories of luminous red galaxies..
