Local Star-forming Galaxies Build Up Central Mass Concentration Most Actively near M ∗ = 1010 M ⊙

To understand in what mass regime star-forming galaxies (SFGs) build up central mass concentration most actively, we present a study on the luminosity-weighted stellar age radial gradient (∇ _age ) distribution of ∼3600 low-redshift SFGs using the MaNGA Pipe3D data available in Data Release 17 from...
