Young stellar population gradients in central cluster galaxies from NUV and optical spectroscopy

N. Salvador-Rusinol et al.

Summary: The largest and most massive galaxies in the Universe are central cluster galaxies with very old stellar populations, yet studies have found blue cores indicating ongoing star formation. The analysis of nearby massive central galaxies shows a negative gradient in young stellar populations, decreasing with galactocentric distance, suggesting that star formation primarily occurs in galaxy cores within 2 kpc. The gas required for forming these young stars is likely to come from an in situ origin via stellar evolution, as supported by the observed young stellar populations.
