Caught in the Act: The Assembly of Massive Cluster Galaxies at z=1.62
J. M. Lotz, C. Papovich, S. M. Faber +13
We present the recent merger history of massive galaxies in a spectroscopically-confirmed proto-cluster at z=1.62. Using HST WFC3 near-infrared imaging from the Cosmic Assembly Nea…
GOODS-Herschel and CANDELS: The Morphologies of Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies at z~2
Jeyhan S. Kartaltepe, Mark Dickinson, David M. Alexander +40
Using deep 100-160 micron observations in GOODS-S from the GOODS-H survey, combined with HST/WFC3 NIR imaging from CANDELS, we present the first morphological analysis of a complet…
What turns galaxies off? The different morphologies of star-forming and quiescent galaxies since z~2 from CANDELS
Eric F. Bell, Arjen van der Wel, Casey Papovich +21
We use HST/WFC3 imaging from the CANDELS Multicycle Treasury Survey, in conjunction with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, to explore the evolution of galactic structure for galaxies w…
The DEEP3 Galaxy Redshift Survey: The Impact of Environment on the Size Evolution of Massive Early-type Galaxies at Intermediate Redshift
Michael C. Cooper, Roger L. Griffith, Jeffrey A. Newman +10
Using data drawn from the DEEP2 and DEEP3 Galaxy Redshift Surveys, we investigate the relationship between the environment and the structure of galaxies residing on the red sequenc…
CANDELS: Constraining the AGN-Merger Connection with Host Morphologies at z~2
Dale D. Kocevski, S. M. Faber, Mark Mozena +35
Using HST/WFC3 imaging taken as part of the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS), we examine the role that major galaxy mergers play in triggeri…
The Major and Minor Galaxy Merger Rates at z < 1.5
Jennifer M. Lotz, Patrik Jonsson, T. J. Cox +4
Calculating the galaxy merger rate requires both a census of galaxies identified as merger candidates, and a cosmologically-averaged `observability' timescale T_obs(z) for identify…
