The MOSDEF Survey: The Evolution of the Mass-Metallicity Relation from to

Ryan L. Sanders, Alice E. Shapley, Tucker Jones +15

We investigate the evolution of galaxy gas-phase metallicity (O/H) over the range using samples of galaxies at and galaxies at f…

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…

SPACE: the SPectroscopic All-sky Cosmic Explorer

A. Cimatti, M. Robberto, C. M. Baugh +18

We describe the scientific motivations, the mission concept and the instrumentation of SPACE, a class-M mission proposed for concept study at the first call of the ESA Cosmic-Visio…

The Detection of a Red Sequence of Massive Field Galaxies at z~2.3 and its Evolution to z~0

Mariska Kriek, Arjen van der Wel, Pieter G. van Dokkum +2

The existence of massive galaxies with strongly suppressed star formation at z~2.3, identified in a previous paper, suggests that a red sequence may already be in place beyond z=2.…

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…

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…
