The Origin of the Mass-Metallicity Relation: Insights from 53,000 Star-forming Galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Christy Tremonti,Christy Tremonti,Timothy M. Heckman,Guinevere Kauffmann,Jarle Brinchmann,Stephane Charlot,Simon D. M. White,Mark Seibert,Mark Seibert,Eric W. Peng,Eric W. Peng,David J. Schlegel,Alan Uomoto,Alan Uomoto,Masataka Fukugita,Jon Brinkmann +15 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the relation between stellar mass and gas-phase metallicity was studied using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey imaging and spectroscopy of ~53,000 star-forming galaxies at z = 0.1.

Weinberg,Donald G. York +23 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used Monte Carlo realizations of different star formation histories, including starbursts of varying strength and a range of metallicities, to constrain the mean stellar ages of galaxies and the fractional stellar mass formed in bursts over the past few Gyr.

York +21 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a new method to constrain the star formation histories, dust attenuation and stellar masses of galaxies based on two stellar absorption line indices, the 4000 Angstrom break strength and the Balmer absorption line index Hdelta_A.
Journal ArticleDOI

Guinevere Kauffmann,Timothy M. Heckman,Simon D. M. White,Stephane Charlot,Christy Tremonti,Eric W. Peng,Mark Seibert,Jon Brinkmann,Robert C. Nichol,Mark SubbaRao,Donald G. York +10 more
TL;DR: For a complete sample of 122 808 galaxies drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), this article studied the relationship between stellar mass, star formation history, size and internal structure.
