Decoding Galaxy SEDs with Physical Priors and Accurate Star Formation History Reconstruction. The Astrophysical Journal, 979(1), Article 66. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ad9a5c

The spectral energy distribution (SED) of galaxies is essential for deriving fundamental properties like stellar mass and star formation history (SFH). However, conventional methods, including both parametric and nonparametric approaches, often fail... Read More about From Halos to Galaxies. X.

Revisiting the Fundamental Metallicity Relation with Observation and Simulation (2024)
Journal Article
Ma, C., Wang, K., Wang, E., Peng, Y., Jiang, H., Yu, H., Jia, C., Chen, Z., Li, H., & Kong, X. (2024). Revisiting the Fundamental Metallicity Relation with Observation and Simulation. Astrophysical Journal Letters, 971(1), Article L14. https://doi.org/10.3847/2041-8213/ad675f

The gas-phase metallicity of galaxies is regulated by multiple astrophysical processes, which makes it a crucial diagnostic of galaxy formation and evolution. Beyond the fundamental mass–metallicity relation, a debate about the secondary galaxy prope... Read More about Revisiting the Fundamental Metallicity Relation with Observation and Simulation.
