Abstract
A popular scenario to explain the increase in number of quiescent,
elliptical galaxies over cosmic time is one in which gas-rich major
mergers lead to strong starbursts which exhaust fuel supplies and
transform the morphology of galaxies from disks to spheroids. In this
proposal we describe how PACS+SPIRE photometry can directly test this
scenario. We present a unique sample of massive
starburst-to-post-starburst galaxies in the local Universe (z
