You Are What You Eat: The Circumgalactic Medium around BreakBRD Galaxies Has Low Mass and Angular Momentum
Observed breakBRD (“break bulges in red disks”) galaxies are a nearby sample of face-on disk galaxies with particularly centrally concentrated star formation: they have red disks but recent star formation in their centers as measured by the D _n 4000 spectral index. In Kopenhafer et al., a comparabl...
