Galaxy Luminosity Functions to z~1: DEEP2 vs. COMBO-17 and Implications for Red Galaxy Formation

TL;DR: In this paper, the DEEP2 and COMBO-17 surveys are used to study the evolution of the luminosity function of red and blue galaxies to $z \sim 1$ Schechter function fits show that, since $z = 1$, $M^*_B$ dims by $\sim$ 1.3 mag per unit redshift for both color classes, while red galaxies has formally nearly quadrupled.
Journal ArticleDOI

CANDELS multi-wavelength catalogs: source detection and photometry in the GOODS-South field

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a CANDELS/GOODS-S multi-wavelength catalog based on source detection in the WFC3 F160W band, which contains 34,930 sources with the representative 50% completeness reaching 25.9, 26.6, and 28.1?AB.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-Redshift Quasars Found in Sloan Digital Sky Survey Commissioning Data IV: Luminosity Function from the Fall Equatorial Stripe Sampl

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the color-selected sample of 39 luminous high-redshift quasars presented in Paper III to derive the evolution of the quasar luminosity function over the range of 3.6
Journal ArticleDOI

The Assembly History of Field Spheroidals: Evolution of Mass-to-light Ratios and Signatures of Recent Star Formation

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive catalog of high signal-to-noise spectra obtained with the DEIMOS spectrograph on the Keck II telescope for a sample of F850LP =-0.72+0.04.
