Studies of the association of faint blue and luminous galaxies using the Hitchhiker parallel camera
J. B. Jones, S. P. Driver, S. Phillipps +3
At B magnitudes >~ 24 there is a well-known excess of galaxies (compared to standard models) which is probably due to an (evolving) population of sub-L* galaxies at moderate redshi…
The inferred redshift distribution of the faint blue excess
Simon P. Driver, Warrick J. Couch, Steven Phillipps +1
We infer the redshift distribution of the faint blue galaxy excess (FBE) at B=23.5 by subtracting the predicted distribution of giant/normal galaxies from the observed N(z) distrib…
Is the luminosity distribution of field galaxies really flat ?
Simon P. Driver, Steven Phillipps
Recent observations of the galaxy population within rich clusters have found a characteristic luminosity distribution described by a flat (alpha = -1.0) Schechter function which ex…
