Dwarf–Dwarf Interactions Can Both Trigger and Quench Star Formation
It is exceedingly rare to find quiescent low-mass galaxies in the field at low redshift. UGC 5205 is an example of such a quenched field dwarf ( M _⋆ ∼ 3 × 10 ^8 M _⊙ ). Despite a wealth of cold gas ( M _HI ∼ 3.5 × 10 ^8 M _⊙ ) and UV emission that indicates significant star formation in the past fe...
