Detection of Evolved High-Redshift Galaxies in Deep NICMOS/VLT Images

TL;DR: In this article, a substantial population of high redshift early-type galaxies is detected in very deep UBVRIJHK images towards the HDF-South, all with very red SEDs, implying ages of >2 Gyr for standard passive evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stellar populations of galaxies in the ALHAMBRA survey up to z ~ 1 - I. MUFFIT: A multi-filter fitting code for stellar population diagnostics

TL;DR: In this article, a new generic code optimized to retrieve the main stellar population parameters of galaxies in photometric multi-filter surveys, and check its reliability and feasibility with real galaxy data from the ALHAMBRA survey.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of two M 32 twins in Abell 1689

TL;DR: The M 31 satellite galaxy M 32 has long been considered an object of unique properties, being the most extreme example of the very rare compact elliptical galaxy class as mentioned in this paper, and the two M 32 twins had first been detected within photometric search for ultra compact dwarf galaxy (UCDs) candidates in A1689 (Mieske et al. 2004b, AJ, 128, 1529) with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS).
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of Evolved High-Redshift Galaxies in Deep NICMOS/VLT Impages

TL;DR: In this article, a large number of high-redshift, early-type galaxies are detected in very deep UBVRIJHK images, showing that the major fraction of luminous Hubble sequence galaxies has evolved little since z~2.2.
