The Relation Between Compact, Quiescent High Redshift Galaxies and Massive Nearby Elliptical Galaxies: Evidence for Hierarchical, Inside-Out Growth
Rachel Bezanson, Pieter G. van Dokkum, Tomer Tal +4
Recent studies have shown that massive quiescent galaxies at high redshift are much more compact than present-day galaxies of the same mass. Here we compare the radial stellar dens…
The Evolution of the Stellar Mass Function of Galaxies from z=4.0 and the First Comprehensive Analysis of its Uncertainties: Evidence for Mass-dependent Evolution
Danilo Marchesini, Pieter G. van Dokkum, Natascha M. Forster Schreiber +3
[Abridged] We present the evolution of the stellar mass function (SMF) of galaxies from z=4.0 to z=1.3 measured from a sample constructed from the deep NIR MUSYC, the FIRES, and th…
Confirmation of the remarkable compactness of massive quiescent galaxies at z~2.3: early-type galaxies did not form in a simple monolithic collapse
Pieter van Dokkum, Marijn Franx, Mariska Kriek +9
Using deep near-infrared spectroscopy Kriek et al. (2006) found that ~45% of massive galaxies at z~2.3 have evolved stellar populations and little or no ongoing star formation. Her…
Spectroscopic Identification of Massive Galaxies at z~2.3 with Strongly Suppressed Star Formation
Mariska Kriek, Pieter van Dokkum, Marijn Franx +13
We present first results of a spectroscopic survey targeting K-selected galaxies at z=2.0-2.7 using the GNIRS instrument on Gemini-South. We obtained near-infrared spectra with a w…
Clustering of K-selected Galaxies at 2<z<3.5: Evidence for a Color-Density Relation
Ryan Quadri, Pieter van Dokkum, Eric Gawiser +9
We study the clustering properties of K-selected galaxies at 2<z<3.5 using deep multiwavelength imaging in three fields from the MUSYC survey. These are the first measurements to p…
The Space Density and Colors of Massive Galaxies at 2<z<3: the Predominance of Distant Red Galaxies
P. van Dokkum, R. Quadri, D. Marchesini +16
Using the deep multi-wavelength MUSYC, GOODS, and FIRES surveys we construct a stellar mass-limited sample of galaxies at 2<z<3. The sample comprises 294 galaxies with M>10^11 Sola…
