The behaviour of the 4000 Angstrom break index and of the equivalent width of the main Balmer lines is investigated a) for a single star as a function of effective temperature, gravity and metallicity and b) for a single stellar population as a function of age and metallicity. Consequences for the interpretation of integrated spectra are presented.

  1. Towards Unbreaking the Universe: MINERVA Measurements of Color Gradients in Massive Quiescent Galaxies Can Help Ease Too-Early Star Formation Tensions

    astro-ph.GA 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Resolved photometry of four high-redshift quiescent galaxies reveals negative color gradients that lower estimated stellar masses by 0.1 dex relative to slit measurements, reducing model tensions under an age-driven i...

    astro-ph.HE 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    AT 2018dyk is a tidal disruption event in a gas-rich galaxy, where reprocessed emission produced both its infrared flare and iron coronal lines.

  3. Inside-Out vs. Outside-In Quenching of MaNGA Galaxies: Dependence on Stellar Mass and Environment

    astro-ph.GA 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    Different quenching tracers applied to MaNGA galaxies produce varying inside-out versus outside-in fractions, with inside-out rising at higher stellar mass while halo-mass trends are weaker.

    astro-ph.GA 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    Simulations of high-redshift galaxies show the 1719 Å UV index reliably traces stellar metallicity while others are more sensitive to star formation history.
