Reconstructing the Assembly of Massive Galaxies. II. Galaxies Develop Massive and Dense Stellar Cores as They Evolve and Head toward Quiescence at Cosmic Noon
We use the spectral energy distribution fitting code Prospector to reconstruct the nonparametric star formation history (SFH) of massive ( $\mathrm{log}{M}_{* }\gt 10.3$ ) star-forming galaxies (SFGs) and quiescent galaxies (QGs) at redshift z _obs ∼ 2 to investigate the joint evolution of star form...
