Abstract: One of the big unsolved questions in galaxy evolution is how the star-formation activity in galaxies stop and the transformation of morphologies, and how this process and governing mechanisms evolve in cosmic time.
This talk will focus on z=1 and later, the period that the cosmic star-formation rate density drops rapidly. I will introduce our recent large spectroscopic campaign, the LEGA-C survey, which obtains 3000 ultra-deep optical spectra of galaxies z~1 using 100 nights of the Very Large Telescope. The high-S/N spectra probe the ages and the assembly histories of galaxies through stellar continua. Combing the structural parameters from HST images, I will demonstrate that there is no one simple mechanism that can explain the complex correlation between the formation histories and structures of galaxies. The majority of galaxies likely went through a gentle process that shuts down star-formation slowly without altering the structure, while some galaxies are experiencing rapid change in both star-formation rate and structural at the same time.
I will further show follow-up studies on post-starburst galaxies, those undergo the rapid decline of star-formation rates, to investigate the driving mechanisms. Various pieces of evidence suggest that post-starburst galaxies had a centrally-concentrated starburst event before the star-formation activity halts.
