A Break in the Size–Stellar Mass Relation: Evidence for Quenching and Feedback in Dwarf Galaxies

A Break in the Size–Stellar Mass Relation: Evidence for Quenching and Feedback in Dwarf Galaxies

Mapping stars and gas in nearby galaxies is fundamental for understanding their growth and the impact of their environment. This issue is addressed by comparing the stellar “edges” of galaxies D _stellar , defined as the outermost diameter where in situ star formation significantly drops, with the g...
