Major Merging History in CANDELS. I. Evolution of the Incidence of Massive Galaxy-Galaxy Pairs from z=3 to z~0

Kameswara Bharadwaj Mantha, Daniel H. McIntosh, Ryan Brennan +37

The rate of major galaxy-galaxy merging is theoretically predicted to steadily increase with redshift during the peak epoch of massive galaxy development (). We us…

Galaxy growth in a massive halo in the first billion years of cosmic history

D. P. Marrone, J. S. Spilker, C. C. Hayward +34

According to the current understanding of cosmic structure formation, the precursors of the most massive structures in the Universe began to form shortly after the Big Bang, in reg…

Evidence for Merger-Driven Growth in Luminous, High-z, Obscured AGN in the CANDELS/COSMOS Field

J. L. Donley, J. Kartaltepe, D. Kocevski +27

While major mergers have long been proposed as a driver of both AGN activity and the M-sigma relation, studies of moderate to high redshift Seyfert-luminosity AGN hosts have found…

CANDELS: Elevated Black Hole Growth in the Progenitors of Compact Quiescent Galaxies at z~2

Dale D. Kocevski, Guillermo Barro, S. M. Faber +31

We examine the fraction of massive (), compact star-forming galaxies (cSFGs) that host an active galactic nucleus (AGN) at . These cSFGs are likely…

Demographics of Star-forming Galaxies since . I. The Diagram in CANDELS

Jerome J. Fang, S. M. Faber, David C. Koo +41

This is the first in a series of papers examining the demographics of star-forming galaxies at in CANDELS. We study 9,100 galaxies from GOODS-S and UDS having published…

The Discovery of a Gravitationally Lensed Supernova Ia at Redshift 2.22

David Rubin, Brian Hayden, Xiaosheng Huang +32

We present the discovery and measurements of a gravitationally lensed supernova (SN) behind the galaxy cluster MOO J1014+0038. Based on multi-band Hubble Space Telescope and Very L…

The AGN-Star Formation Connection: Future Prospects with JWST

Allison Kirkpatrick, Stacey Alberts, Alexandra Pope +12

The bulk of the stellar growth over cosmic time is dominated by IR luminous galaxies at cosmic noon (z=1-2), many of which harbor a hidden active galactic nucleus (AGN). We use sta…

The Ages of Passive Galaxies in a z=1.62 Protocluster

Donald B. Lee-Brown, Gregory H. Rudnick, Ivelina G. Momcheva +9

We present a study of the relation between galaxy stellar age and mass for 14 members of the protocluster IRC 0218, using multiband imaging and HST G102 and G141 grism spe…

A controlled study of cold dust content in galaxies from

Allison Kirkpatrick, Alexandra Pope, Anna Sajina +12

At , the formation of new stars is dominated by dusty galaxies whose far-IR emission indicates they contain colder dust than local galaxies of a similar luminosity. We explo…

Arm and interarm abundance gradients in CALIFA spiral galaxies

L. Sánchez-Menguiano, S. F. Sánchez, I. Pérez +23

Spiral arms are the most singular features in disc galaxies. These structures can exhibit different patterns, namely grand design and flocculent arms, with easily distinguishable c…

The X-ray and Mid-Infrared luminosities in Luminous Type 1 Quasars

Chien-Ting J. Chen, Ryan C. Hickox, Andrew D. Goulding +16

Several recent studies have reported different intrinsic correlations between the AGN mid-IR luminosity () and the rest-frame 2-10 keV luminosity () for luminous qu…
