We present near-infrared spectroscopic confirmations of a sample of 16 photometrically-selected galaxies with stellar masses log(M_star/M_sun) > 11 at redshift z > 3 from the XMM-VIDEO and COSMOS-UltraVISTA fields using Keck/MOSFIRE as part of the MAGAZ3NE survey. Eight of the ultra-massive galaxies (UMGs) have specific star formation rates (sSFR) < 0.03 Gyr-1, with negligible emission lines. Another seven UMGs show emission lines consistent with active galactic nuclei and/or star formation, while only one UMG has sSFR > 1 Gyr-1. Model star formation histories of these galaxies describe systems that formed the majority of their stars in vigorous bursts of several hundred Myr duration around 4 < z < 6during which hundreds to thousands of solar masses were formed per year. These formation ages of < 1 Gyr prior to observation are consistent with ages derived from measurements of Dn(4000) and EW0(Hδ). Rapid quenching followed these bursty star-forming periods, generally occurring less than 350 Myr before observation, resulting in post-starburst SEDs and spectra for half the sample. The rapid formation timescales are consistent with the extreme star formation rates observed in 4 < z < 7 dusty starbursts observed with ALMA, suggesting that such dusty galaxies are progenitors of these UMGs. While such formation histories have been suggested in previous studies, the large sample introduced here presents the most compelling evidence yet that vigorous star formation followed by rapid quenching is almost certainly the norm for high mass galaxies in the early universe. The UMGs presented here were selected to be brighter than Ks = 21.7 raising the intriguing possibility that even (fainter) older quiescent UMGs could exist at this epoch.

Investigating the Stellar Mass Growth Histories of Satellite Galaxies as a Function of Infall Time using Phase-Space
我们编译了一个大样本的附近星系的卫星主机使用一个众所周知的SDSS组目录。从这个样本中,我们创建了一个“古代infallers”和“最近infallers”子样本,根据宇宙学模拟预测的星系在相空间中的位置的平均下落时间。我们比较了这两个子样本中星系的恒星质量增长历史,从多波长SED拟合,使用来自宇宙学模拟的恒星形成历史形状的综合库确定。通过同时控制卫星恒星质量和宿主晕质量,我们可以清楚地看到在宿主中度过的时间的影响。正如我们可能预测的那样,古老的infaller人口显示出明显的早期淬火迹象,特别是对于更大质量的宿主中的低质量卫星。更重要的是,我们发现这种影响不仅限于大型主机。我们发现,主机可能被认为是低质量的集团(晕质量$\sim$ 10 $^{13}$ M $_\odot$)可以显着改变他们的卫星,即使是大质量的卫星(恒星质量$\sim$ 10 $^{10}$ M $_\odot$)。有趣的是,我们看到早在8或9 Gyr前,星系团卫星的质量增长历史就发生了变化,当时它们还没有进入当前宿主的维里半径。我们认为,这可能是由于星系被预处理在低质量的子结构在原星系团的郊区,之前的下跌。
