Size evolution of the most massive galaxies at 1.7<z<3 from GOODS NICMOS survey imaging
Fernando Buitrago, Ignacio Trujillo, Christopher J. Conselice +3
We measure the sizes of 82 massive (M>10^11 M_sun) galaxies at 1.7<z<3 utilizing deep HST NICMOS data taken in the GOODS North and South fields. Our sample is almost an order of ma…
