The VIRMOS-VLT Deep Survey: the last 10 billion years of evolution of galaxy clustering

A. Pollo, L. Guzzo, O. Le Fevre +46

We discuss the evolution of clustering of galaxies in the Universe from the present epoch back to z ~ 2, using the first-epoch data from the VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS). We presen…

The VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey: Dependence of Galaxy Clustering on Luminosity

A. Pollo, L. Guzzo, O. Le Fevre +2

We have investigated the dependence of galaxy clustering on their intrinsic luminosities at z ~ 1, using the data from the First Epoch VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS). We have measure…

Dust and Molecules in Early Galaxies: Prediction and Strategy for Observations

Tsutomu T. Takeuchi

The interplay between dust and molecules is of fundamental importance in early galaxy evolution. First we present the prediction for the dust emission from forming galaxies. Then w…

ZEN and the search for high-redshift galaxies

J. P. Willis, F. Courbin, J-P. Kneib +1

We present the ZEN (z equals nine) survey: a deep, narrow J-band search for proto-galactic Lya emission at redshifts z=9. In the first phase of the survey, dubbed ZEN1, we combine…

GALEX Detection of Lyman Break Galaxies at z=1 in the CDFS

D. Burgarella, P. Perez-Gonzalez, V. Buat +5

The first large sample of Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) at z~1 is selected from GALEX Far-UV and Near-UV images of the Chandra Deep Field South. This multi-wavelength study is based…

Dating Secular Evolution: Bar Ages from Stellar Kinematics

D. A. Gadotti, Ronaldo E. de Souza

The last few years witnessed a change of perspective in the context of galaxy formation and evolution. The major role played by bars in the history of these fundamental building bl…
