What causes the death of galaxies? Is it nature or nurture? The new James Webb telescope combined with ground-based VLT data provide new insights in galaxy evolution and the quenching of star formation.
The new JWST (James Webb Space Telescope) data combined with KMOS and MUSE data from VLT are a powerful tool to study the evolution of galaxies and the cessation of star formation. Many of the JWST and MUSE observations (e.g., Abell 370) are publicly available, ready to be used for data analysis.
