The Nature of Compact Galaxies at z=0.2-1.3: Implications for Galaxy Evolution and the Star Formation History of the Universe

R. Guzman, A. C. Phillips, J. Gallego +2

We study the global scaling-laws of 51 compact field galaxies with redshifts z = 0.2-1.3 and apparent magnitudes I<23.74 in the flanking fields of the Hubble Deep Field. Roughly 60…
