Environmental quenching and hierarchical cluster assembly: evidence from spectroscopic ages of red-sequence galaxies in Coma (2012)
Journal Article
Smith, R. J., Lucey, J. R., Price, J., Hudson, M. J., & Phillipps, S. (2012). Environmental quenching and hierarchical cluster assembly: evidence from spectroscopic ages of red-sequence galaxies in Coma. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 419(4), 3167-3180. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2011.19956.x

We explore the variation in stellar population ages for Coma cluster galaxies as a function of projected cluster-centric distance, using a sample of 362 red-sequence galaxies with high signal-to-noise ratio spectroscopy. The sample spans a wide range... Read More about Environmental quenching and hierarchical cluster assembly: evidence from spectroscopic ages of red-sequence galaxies in Coma.

From star-forming spirals to passive spheroids: integral field spectroscopy of E+A galaxies (2012)
Journal Article
Swinbank, A., Balogh, M., Bower, R., Zabludoff, A., Lucey, J., McGee, S., …Nichol, R. (2012). From star-forming spirals to passive spheroids: integral field spectroscopy of E+A galaxies. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 420(1), 672-683. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2011.20082.x

We present three-dimensional spectroscopy of 11 E+A galaxies at z= 0.06–0.12. These galaxies were selected for their strong Hδ absorption but weak (or non-existent) [O II] λ3727 and Hα emission. This selection suggests that a recent burst of star for... Read More about From star-forming spirals to passive spheroids: integral field spectroscopy of E+A galaxies.
