The SINS survey of z~2 galaxy kinematics: properties of the giant star forming clumps
R. Genzel, S. Newman, T. Jones +24
We have studied the properties of giant star forming clumps in five z~2 star-forming disks with deep SINFONI AO spectroscopy at the ESO VLT. The clumps reside in disk regions where…
Constraints on the Assembly and Dynamics of Galaxies: I. Detailed Rest-frame Optical Morphologies on Kiloparsec-scale of z ~ 2 Star-forming Galaxies
N. M. Förster Schreiber, A. E. Shapley, D. K. Erb +5
We present deep and high-resolution HST/NIC2 F160W imaging at 1.6micron of six z~2 star-forming galaxies with existing near-IR integral field spectroscopy from SINFONI at the VLT.…
Short-lived star-forming giant clumps in cosmological simulations of z~2 disks
Shy Genel, Thorsten Naab, Reinhard Genzel +7
Many observed massive star-forming z\approx2 galaxies are large disks that exhibit irregular morphologies, with \sim1kpc, \sim10^(8-10)Msun clumps. We present the largest sample to…
Dissecting Galaxies with Adaptive Optics
Richard Davies, Hauke Engel, Erin Hicks +5
We describe several projects addressing the growth of galaxies and massive black holes, for which adaptive optics is mandatory to reach high spatial resolution but is also a challe…
Herschel deep far-infrared counts through the Abell 2218 cluster-lens
B. Altieri, S. Berta, D. Lutz +35
Gravitational lensing by massive galaxy clusters allows study of the population of intrinsically faint infrared galaxies that lie below the sensitivity and confusion limits of curr…
Herschel PEP: The star-formation rates of 1.5<z<2.5 massive galaxies
R. Nordon, D. Lutz, L. Shao +31
The star formation rate (SFR) is a key parameter in the study of galaxy evolution. The accuracy of SFR measurements at z~2 has been questioned following a disagreement between obse…
A Study of the Gas-Star Formation Relation over Cosmic Time
R. Genzel, L. J. Tacconi, J. Gracia-Carpio +19
We use the first systematic data sets of CO molecular line emission in z~1-3 normal star forming galaxies for a comparison of the dependence of galaxy-averaged star formation rates…
Star-Forming Galaxies at z~2 and the Formation of the Metal-Rich Globular Cluster Population
K. L. Shapiro, R. Genzel, N. M. Foerster Schreiber
We examine whether the super star-forming clumps (R~1-3 kpc; M~10^8-10^9.5 Msun) now known to be a key component of star-forming galaxies at z~2 could be the formation sites of the…
