IVOA Recommendation: An IVOA Standard for Unified Content Descriptors Version 1.1

Sébastien Derriere, Norman Gray, Robert Mann +7

This document describes the current understanding of the IVOA controlled vocabulary for describing astronomical data quantities, called Unified Content Descriptors (UCDs). The pres…

A Spitzer-MIPS search for dust in compact high-velocity HI clouds

Rik J. Williams, Smita Mathur, Shawn Poindexter +2

We employ three-band Spitzer-MIPS observations to search for cold dust emission in three neutral hydrogen compact high-velocity clouds (CHVCs) in the vicinity of the Milky Way. Far…

Redshift Evolution of the Galaxy Velocity Dispersion Function

Rachel Bezanson, Pieter G. van Dokkum, Marijn Franx +9

We present a study of the evolution of the galaxy Velocity Dispersion Function (VDF) from z=0 to z=1.5 using photometric data from the UKIDSS Ultra Deep Survey (UDS) and Newfirm Me…

The diminishing importance of major galaxy mergers at higher redshifts

Rik J. Williams, Ryan F. Quadri, Marijn Franx

Using mass-selected galaxy samples from deep multiwavelength data we investigate the incidence of close galaxy pairs between z=0.4-2. Many such close pairs will eventually merge, a…

The NEWFIRM Medium-band Survey: Photometric Catalogs, Redshifts and the Bimodal Color Distribution of Galaxies out to z~3

Katherine E. Whitaker, Ivo Labbe, Pieter G. van Dokkum +15

We present deep near-infrared (NIR) medium-bandwidth photometry over the wavelength range 1-1.8 microns in the All-wavelength Extended Groth strip International Survey (AEGIS) and…

The number density and mass density of star-forming and quiescent galaxies at 0.4 < z < 2.2

Gabriel B. Brammer, Katherine E. Whitaker, Pieter G. van Dokkum +9

We study the build-up of the bimodal galaxy population using the NEWFIRM Medium-Band Survey, which provides excellent redshifts and well-sampled spectral energy distributions of ~2…
