L. Pentericci, R. J. McLure B. Garilli, O. Cucciati +93
This paper describes the observations and the first data release (DR1) of the ESO public spectroscopic survey "VANDELS, a deep VIMOS survey of the CANDELS CDFS and UDS fields". VAN…
The VANDELS ESO public spectroscopic survey
R. J. McLure, L. Pentericci, A. Cimatti +92
VANDELS is a uniquely-deep spectroscopic survey of high-redshift galaxies with the VIMOS spectrograph on ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT). The survey has obtained ultra-deep optica…
The Lyman Continuum escape fraction of galaxies at z=3.3 in the VUDS-LBC/COSMOS field
A. Grazian, E. Giallongo, R. Gerbasi +52
The Lyman continuum (LyC) flux escaping from high-z galaxies into the IGM is a fundamental quantity to understand the physical processes involved in the reionization epoch. We have…
The VIMOS Ultra Deep Survey: Ly Emission and Stellar Populations of Star-Forming Galaxies at 2<z<2.5
Nimish P. Hathi, O. Le Fèvre, O. Ilbert +45
The aim of this paper is to investigate spectral and photometric properties of 854 faint (<~25 mag) star-forming galaxies (SFGs) at 2<z<2.5 using the VIMOS Ultra-Deep Surve…
The galaxy stellar mass function at 3.5<z<7.5 in the CANDELS/UDS, GOODS-South, and HUDF fields
A. Grazian, A. Fontana, P. Santini +38
The galaxy stellar mass function (GSMF) at high-z provides key information on star-formation history and mass assembly in the young Universe. We aimed to use the unique combination…
The VIMOS Ultra-Deep Survey (VUDS): IGM transmission towards galaxies with 2.5<z<5.5 and the colour selection of high redshift galaxies
R. Thomas, O. Le Fèvre, V. Le Brun P. Cassata +43
(arXiv abridged abstract) The observed UV rest-frame spectra of distant galaxies are the result of their intrinsic emission combined with absorption along the line of sight produce…
The evolution of clustering length, large-scale bias and host halo mass at 2<z<5 in the VIMOS Ultra Deep Survey (VUDS)
A. Durkalec, O. Le Fèvre, A. Pollo +45
We investigate the evolution of galaxy clustering for galaxies in the redshift range 2.0<<5.0 using the VIMOS Ultra Deep Survey (VUDS). We present the projected (real-space) two…
A mass threshold in the number density of passive galaxies at z2
V. Sommariva, A. Fontana, A. Lamastra +16
The process that quenched star formation in galaxies at intermediate and high redshift is still the subject of considerable debate. One way to investigate this puzzling issue is to…
The Hawk-I UDS and GOODS Survey (HUGS): Survey design and deep K-band number counts
A. Fontana, J. S. Dunlop, D. Paris +40
We present the results of a new, ultra-deep, near-infrared imaging survey executed with the Hawk-I imager at the ESO VLT, of which we make all the data public. This survey, named H…
Galaxy population properties of the massive X-ray luminous galaxy cluster XDCP J0044.0-2033 at z=1.58: red-sequence formation, massive galaxy assembly, and central star formation activity
R. Fassbender, A. Nastasi, J. S. Santos +20
We investigate various galaxy population properties of the massive X-ray luminous galaxy cluster XDCP J0044.0-2033 at z=1.58, which constitutes the most extreme matter density peak…
Constraints on the star-formation rate of z~3 LBGs with measured metallicity in the CANDELS GOODS-South field
M. Castellano, V. Sommariva, A. Fontana +19
We analyse 14 LBGs at z~2.8-3.8 constituting the only sample where both a spectroscopic measurement of their metallicity and deep IR observations (CANDELS+HUGS survey) are availabl…
Evidence of very low metallicity and high ionization state in a strongly lensed, star-forming dwarf galaxy at z=3.417
Ricardo Amorín, A. Grazian, M. Castellano +6
We investigate the gas-phase metallicity and Lyman Continuum (LyC) escape fraction of a strongly gravitationally lensed, extreme emission-line galaxy at z=3.417, J1000+0221S, recen…
A Comparison between Semi-Analytic Model Predictions for the CANDELS Survey

We compare the predictions of three independently developed semi-analytic galaxy formation models that are being used to aid in the interpretation of results from the CANDELS surve…
Metallicity evolution, metallicity gradients and gas fractions at z~3.4

We used near-infrared integral field spectroscopic observations from the AMAZE and LSD programs to constrain the metallicity in a sample of 40 star forming galaxies at 3<z<5 (most…
LUCIFER@LBT view of star-forming galaxies in the cluster 7C 1756+6520 at z~1.4
Laura Magrini, Veronica Sommariva, Giovanni Cresci +5
Galaxy clusters are key places to study the contribution of {\it nature} (i.e. mass, morphology) and {\it nurture} (i.e.environment) in the formation and evolution of galaxies. Rec…
Homogeneous Metallicities and Radial Velocities for Galactic Globular Clusters
Ivo Saviane, Gary S. Da Costa, Enrico V. Held +4
Well determined radial velocities and abundances are essential for analyzing the properties of the Globular Cluster system of the Milky Way. However more than 50% of these clusters…
Stellar metallicity of star-forming galaxies at z ~ 3
