CANDELS: The Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey - The Hubble Space Telescope Observations, Imaging Data Products and Mosaics

Anton M. Koekemoer, +122 more
TL;DR: The Cosmic Assembly Near-IR Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS) as mentioned in this paper was designed to document the evolution of galaxies and black holes at $z\sim 1.5-8$, and to study Type Ia SNe beyond $z>1.5.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

Galaxy Pairs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey I: Star Formation, AGN Fraction, and the Luminosity/Mass-Metallicity Relation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a sample of 1716 galaxies with companions within Delta v < 500 km/s, r_p < 80 kpc and stellar mass ratio 0.1 < M_1/M_2 < 10 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 4 (DR4).
Journal ArticleDOI

The evolution of the star formation activity in galaxies and its dependence on environment

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied how the proportion of star-forming galaxies evolves between z = 0.4-0.8 and z=0 as a function of galaxy environment using the [OII] line in emission as a signature of ongoing star formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Halpha-Derived Star-Formation Rates For Three z ~ 0.75 EDisCS Galaxy Clusters

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present Halpha-derived star-formation rates (SFRs) for three z ~ 0.75 galaxy clusters and find that the fraction of star-forming galaxies increases with projected distance from the cluster center.
