A fast-rotator post-starburst galaxy quenched by supermassive black-hole feedback at z = 3

A massive galaxy hosting an accreting supermassive black hole two billion years after the Big Bang shows fast neutral-gas outflows that are capable of stopping star formation by removing its fuel while the stars keep rotating in a disk.

Accelerated quenching and chemical enhancement of massive galaxies in a z ≈ 4 gas-rich halo

Spatially resolved JWST spectroscopy of a massive, quiescent galaxy at a redshift of ~4 reveals that it formed its stars and quenched rapidly, despite being surrounded by an abundant gas reservoir and gravitationally bound to a star-bursting companion.
