Studying a remarkable sample of intermediate redshift post-starburst galaxies selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

HizEA

This repository contains code pertaining to our group's analysis of a remarkable sample of intermediate redshift post-starburst galaxies selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.

Some of the papers by our group analyzing this sample include:

• "High-Velocity Outflows Without AGN Feedback: Eddington-Limited Star Formation in Compact Massive Galaxies" by A. Diamond-Stanic et al.
• "Massive Compact Galaxies with High-Velocity Outflows: Morphological Analysis and Constraints on AGN Activity" by P. Sell et al.
• "Stellar feedback as the origin of an extended molecular outflow in a starburst galaxy" by J. Geach et al.
• "The Discovery of 1000 km/s Outflows in Massive Post-starburst Galaxies at z=0.6" by C. Tremonti et al.

hizea's Issues

gather updated Legacy Surveys photometry of parent MMT sample

For the paper-in-prep we should use Legacy Surveys grz photometry + forced WISE + GALEX + SDSS photometry for the input to SED fitting.

SED fitting of new photometry

Note: no PSF convolution of shorter wavelength images, F475W-F814W colors should be fine, F814W-F160W colors likely too blue for brightest fluxes
