The HST-Hyperion Survey: Environmental Imprints on the Stellar-Mass Function at z~2.5

Derek Sikorski, Ben Forrest, Brian C. Lemaux +19

Not all galaxies at Cosmic Noon evolve in the same way. It remains unclear how the local environment -- especially the extreme overdensities of protoclusters -- affects stellar mas…

MAGAZ3NE: Evidence for Galactic Conformity in Protoclusters

Ian McConachie, Gillian Wilson, Ben Forrest +16

We examine the quiescent fractions of massive galaxies in six spectroscopically-confirmed protoclusters in the COSMOS field, one of which is newly confirmed and present…

Enhanced AGN Activity in Overdense Galactic Environments at

Ekta A. Shah, Brian C. Lemaux, Benjamin Forrest +17

We conduct a study on the relationship between galaxy environments and their active galactic nuclei (AGN) activity at high redshifts (). Specifically, we study the AGN f…

Environmental Effects on the Stellar Mass Function in a z~3.3 Overdensity of Galaxies in the COSMOS Field

Ben Forrest, Brian C. Lemaux, Ekta A. Shah +17

We present an analysis of the number density of galaxies as a function of stellar mass (i.e., the stellar mass function, SMF) in the COSMOS field at z~3.3, making a comparison betw…

Protoclusters as Drivers of Stellar Mass Growth in the Early Universe, a Case Study: Taralay -- a Massive Protocluster at z ~ 4.57

Priti Staab, Brian C. Lemaux, Ben Forrest +26

Simulations predict that the galaxy populations inhabiting protoclusters may contribute considerably to the total amount of stellar mass growth of galaxies in the early universe. I…
