Where Galaxies Go to Die: The Environments of Massive Quiescent Galaxies at 3 < z < 5

Ian McConachie, Anna de Graaff, Michael V. Maseda, Joel Leja et al. • The Astrophysical Journal (2026)

At low redshift, massive quiescent galaxies (MQGs) are most frequently found in massive, rich galaxy clusters, but at high redshift the trend is less clear. Here, we present spectroscopic evidence of the effects of environment on the format...

Intergalactic Wandering Stars in the Local Universe: Theoretical Predictions for Their Distance and Luminosity Distribution

Jia-Hui Wang, Maosheng Xiang, Ji-Feng Liu • The Astrophysical Journal (2025)

Intergalactic wandering stars (IWSs) within 10 Mpc remain a poorly explored area of astronomy. Such stars, if they exist, are supposed to be wandering objects as they are not bound by the gravitational potential of any galaxy. We set out to...
