The evolution of the star formation activity per halo mass up to redshift ~ 1.6 as seen by Herschel
P. Popesso, A. Biviano, G. Rodighiero +40
Star formation in massive galaxies is quenched at some point during hierarchical mass assembly. To understand where and when the quenching processes takes place, we study the evolu…
The zCOSMOS-SINFONI Project I: Sample Selection and Natural-Seeing Observations
Chiara Mancini, Natascha Foerster Schreiber, Alvio Renzini +21
The zCOSMOS SINFONI project is aimed at studying the physical and kinematical properties of a sample of massive z~1.4-2.5 star-forming galaxies, through SINFONI near-IR integral fi…
A dynamical mass estimator for high z galaxies based on spectroastrometry
A. Gnerucci, A. Marconi, G. Cresci +6
Galaxy dynamical masses are important physical quantities to constrain galaxy evolutionary models, especially at high redshifts. However, at z~2 the limited signal to noise ratio a…
The lesser role of starbursts for star formation at z=2
G. Rodighiero, E. Daddi, I. Baronchelli +31
Two main modes of star formation are know to control the growth of galaxies: a relatively steady one in disk-like galaxies, defining a tight star formation rate (SFR)-stellar mass…
First Results from the 3D-HST Survey: The Striking Diversity of Massive Galaxies at z>1
Pieter G. van Dokkum, Gabriel Brammer, Mattia Fumagalli +26
We present first results from the 3D-HST program, a near-IR spectroscopic survey performed with the Wide Field Camera 3 on the Hubble Space Telescope. We have used 3D-HST spectra t…
How well can we Measure the Intrinsic Velocity Dispersion of Distant Disk Galaxies?
R. Davies, N. M. Forster Schreiber, G. Cresci +13
The kinematics of distant galaxies, from z=0.1 to z>2, play a key role in our understanding of galaxy evolution from early times to the present. One of the important parameters is…
Galaxy Structure and Mode of Star Formation in the SFR-Mass Plane from z ~ 2.5 to z ~ 0.1
Stijn Wuyts, Natascha M. Forster Schreiber, Arjen van der Wel +23
We analyze the dependence of galaxy structure (size and Sersic index) and mode of star formation (Σ_SFR and SFR_IR/SFR_UV) on the position of galaxies in the SFR versus Mass diagra…
On Star Formation Rates and Star Formation Histories of Galaxies out to z ~ 3
Stijn Wuyts, Natascha M. Forster Schreiber, Dieter Lutz +23
We compare multi-wavelength SFR indicators out to z~3 in GOODS-South. Our analysis uniquely combines U-to-8um photometry from FIREWORKS, MIPS 24um and PACS 70, 100, and 160um photo…
The metallicity dependence of the CO {\rightarrow} H_2 conversion factor in z>1 star forming galaxies
R. Genzel, L. J. Tacconi, F. Combes +20
We use the first systematic samples of CO millimeter emission in z>1 'main-sequence' star forming galaxies (SFGs) to study the metallicity dependence of the conversion factor αCO,…
The impact of evolving infrared spectral energy distributions of galaxies on star formation rate estimates
R. Nordon, D. Lutz, R. Genzel +27
We combine Herschel-PACS data from the PEP program with Spitzer 24 um and 16 um photometry and ultra deep IRS mid-infrared spectra, to measure the mid- to far-infrared spectral ene…
The PEP survey: clustering of infrared-selected galaxies and structure formation at z~2 in the GOODS South
M. Magliocchetti, P. Santini, G. Rodighiero +23
ABRIDGED-This paper presents the first direct estimate of the 3D clustering properties of far-infrared sources up to z~3. This has been possible thanks to the Pacs Evolutionary Pro…
The effect of environment on star forming galaxies at redshift 1 - First insight from PACS
P. Popesso, G. Rodighiero, A. Saintonge +4
We use deep 70, 100 and 160 um observations taken with PACS, the Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer on board of Herschel, as part of the PACS Evolutionary Probe (PEP) guar…
Constraints on the assembly and dynamics of galaxies. II. Properties of kiloparsec-scale clumps in rest-frame optical emission of z ~ 2 star-forming galaxies
N. M. Förster Schreiber, A. E. Shapley, R. Genzel +11
We study the properties of luminous stellar clumps identified in deep, high resolution HST/NIC2 F160W imaging at 1.6um of six z~2 star-forming galaxies with existing near-IR integr…
