Discovery of a low-redshift ultraluminous 'E + A' galaxy
Abstract
The serendipitous discovery is reported of a relatively low redshift (z = 0.0875) 'E + A' (poststarburst) galaxy. The galaxy is remarkable for its extremely high luminosity, strong Balmer absorption lines, and morphology, indicating that a merger precipitated the starburst about 1 Gyr ago.
