Galaxy and mass assembly (GAMA): End of survey report and data release 2

Jochen Liske, +81 more
TL;DR: The Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey as mentioned in this paper is one of the largest contemporary spectroscopic surveys of low redshift galaxies, covering an area of ∼286 deg2 (split among five survey regions) down to a limiting magnitude of r < 19.8 mag, and collecting spectra and reliable redshifts for 238'000 objects using the AAOmega spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reionization after Planck: The Derived Growth of the Cosmic Ionizing Emissivity now matches the Growth of the Galaxy UV Luminosity Density

TL;DR: In this article, a simple two-parameter model was proposed to map out the evolution in the emissivity at z>~6 from the new Planck optical depth tau measurements, from the constraints provided by quasar absorption spectra and from the prevalence of Ly-alpha emission in z~7-8 galaxies.
Journal ArticleDOI

The evolution of stellar mass and the implied star formation history

TL;DR: In this paper, a compilation of measurements of the stellar mass density as a function of redshift is presented, and compared to the instantaneous star formation history, showing good agreement between the two star formation histories.
