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…

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…

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…
