Journal ArticleDOI

The Detailed Evolution of E+A Galaxies into Early Types

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the detailed morphologies of 21 E+A galaxies using high-resolution HSTACS and WFPC2 images and concluded that E+As will be morphologically classified as early-type galaxies.
Journal ArticleDOI

E+A Galaxies and the Formation of Early-Type Galaxies at z~0

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the first direct evidence supporting the hypothesis that power-law elliptical galaxies form via gas-rich mergers, and they detected compact sources, possibly young star clusters, associated with the galaxies and provided the elusive chronometer needed to break the age/burst strength degeneracy for these postmerger galaxies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extended Lyman Alpha Nebulae at z ~ 2.3: An Extremely Rare and Strongly Clustered Population?

TL;DR: In this paper, a blind, wide-field, narrow-band imaging survey in the NOAO Deep Wide Field Survey Bootes field with the Steward Bok-2.3m telescope was conducted to obtain an unbiased sample of bright LyA blobs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of large molecular gas reservoirs in post-starburst galaxies

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors search for CO(1-0) and (2-1) emission with the IRAM 30 m and SMT 10 m telescopes in 32 nearby (0.01 < z < 0.12) post-starburst galaxies drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.
Journal ArticleDOI

Probing galaxy formation with He II cooling lines

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used high-resolution cosmological simulations to study hydrogen and helium gravitational cooling radiation from gas accretion by young galaxies, finding that Lyα and He II λ1640 cooling emission at z = 2-3 are potentially detectable with deep narrowband imaging and/or spectroscopy from the ground.
