5 NUV - r Fast evolution Green valley Slow evolution t (Gyr) z ~ 0.1 γ=20 Gyr -1 no such trend is apparent in the data there is no redshift dependence at all in the index values. Martin Time Variations and Delays t < t0 In comparing the transitional, red, and blue sequence mass fluxes, we have glossed over time delays in the transition from blue to the red sequence. These could impact the present measurement if there are variations in the mass t > flux rate t0over the cosmic timescales spanned by the DEEP2 and COMBO-17 observations. We have determined typical quench rates to be 1Y1.5 Gyr 1. With this rate, evolution from blue to our transitional color takes 3 Gyr,withasimilaradditionalintervaltoreachtheredsequence. Strictly speaking, we must compare the mass flux rate now with the blue sequence evolution 3 Gyr in the past and the red sequence evolution 3 Gyr in the future. The results of Faber et al. (2007) suggest that the mass flux rate is roughly constant, although the rate may be higher in the highest redshift bin. It will be of some interest to measure the transitional flux at higher redshifts to determine whether it is evolving with time. The mass flux density in the green valley and the evolution of the red sequence agree γ=0.5 Gyr -1

18 Summary Through deep spectroscopy, we can estimate the star formation history of galaxies at z~0.8 The evolution of the mass flux density: at earlier times, faster transtion happening in more massive galaxies Top-down scenario: more massive galaxies in the red sequence were formed earlier, and less massive objects fill in at later times Bars appear to indicate slow quenching. More secular evolution at low-z?

The hook -shaped distribution in seen in nearly every mass bin. The horizontal scatter in dex of the distribution in the green valley is indicated at the 6 bottom of each panel. Assuming that galaxies evolve at fixed mass, this suggests that galaxies in the blue sequence build up their bulges (i.e., increase 1 ) and then quench and redden. The near-vertical distribution of green and red galaxies suggests that inner bulge buildup does not continue (much) once a galaxy leaves the blue sequence. In addition, the distribution marches toward higher 1 with increasing stellar mass.

Despite their brighter outer disks, blue galaxies have nearly identical outer mass profiles as red galaxies.
