The Gas-phase Mass–Metallicity Relation for Massive Galaxies at z ∼ 0.7 with the LEGA-C Survey

The Gas-phase Mass–Metallicity Relation for Massive Galaxies at z ∼ 0.7 with the LEGA-C Survey

The massive end of the gas-phase mass–metallicity relation (MZR) is a sensitive probe of active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback that is a crucial but highly uncertain component of galaxy evolution models. In this paper, we extend the z ∼ 0.7 MZR by ∼0.5 dex up to log ( M _⋆ / M _⊙ ) ∼ 11.1. We use ex...
