Sub-millimeter galaxies as progenitors of compact quiescent galaxies

TL;DR: In this article, a new, representative spectroscopic sample of compact quiescent galaxies at z = 2 and a statistically well-understood sample of sub-millimeter selected galaxies (SMGs) were used to show that z=3-6 SMGs are consistent with being the progenitors of z=2 quiescents, matching their formation redshifts and their distributions of sizes, stellar masses and internal velocities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deep Absorption Line Studies of Quiescent Galaxies at z ~ 2: The Dynamical-mass?Size Relation and First Constraints on the Fundamental Plane

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present dynamical and structural scaling relations of quiescent galaxies at z = 2, including the dynamical-mass-size relation and the first constraints on the fundamental plane (FP).
Journal ArticleDOI

A massive, dead disk galaxy in the early Universe

TL;DR: An analysis of the stellar populations and kinematics of a lensed z = 2.1478 compact galaxy, which—surprisingly—turns out to be a fast-spinning, rotationally supported disk galaxy that must have formed in a disk, rather than in a merger-driven nuclear starburst.
Journal ArticleDOI

The pair fraction of massive galaxies at 0 ≤ z ≤ 3

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a mass-selected (M{sub *} {>=} 10{sup 11} M{sub Sun }) sample of 198 galaxies at the COSMOS survey to find evidence for the evolution of the pair fraction above z ≈ 2.
