COSMOS2020: Exploring the Dawn of Quenching for Massive Galaxies at 3 < z < 5 with a New Color-selection Method

We select and characterize a sample of massive (log( M _* / M _⊙ ) > 10.6) quiescent galaxies (QGs) at 3 < z < 5 in the latest Cosmological Evolution Survey catalog (COSMOS2020). QGs are selected using a new rest-frame color-selection method, based on their probability of belonging to the q...
