Massive Quenched Galaxies at z ∼ 0.7 Retain Large Molecular Gas Reservoirs

The physical mechanisms that quench star formation, turning blue star-forming galaxies into red quiescent galaxies, remain unclear. In this Letter, we investigate the role of gas supply in suppressing star formation by studying the molecular gas content of post-starburst galaxies. Leveraging the wid...
