New H-band Galaxy Number Counts: A Large Local Hole in the Galaxy Distribution?
W. J. Frith, N. Metcalfe, T. Shanks
We examine H-band number counts determined using new photometry over 0.30 sq.deg. to H=19, as well as H<14 counts from 2MASS. First, we examine 2MASS counts extracted for the 4000…

The Local Hole in the Galaxy Distribution: Evidence from 2MASS
W. J. Frith, G. S. Busswell, R. Fong +2
Using the bright galaxy counts from the 2 Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) second incremental release, two techniques for probing large-scale structure at distances of ~150 h-1 Mpc ar…

Evidence for Galaxy Formation at High Redshift
T. Shanks, N. Metcalfe, R. Fong +3
We have shown previously that galaxy counts from the UV to the near-IR are well-fitted by simple evolutionary models where the space density of galaxies remains constant with look-…
