Galaxies at High Redshift and Reionization

Andrew Bunker, Elizabeth Stanway, Richard Ellis +5

The quest to discover the most distant galaxies has developed rapidly in the last decade. We are now exploring redshifts of 6 and beyond, when the Universe was less than a billion…

The Stellar Mass Density at z~6 from Spitzer Imaging of i-drop Galaxies

Laurence Eyles, Andrew Bunker, Richard Ellis +4

We measure the ages, stellar masses, and star formation histories of z~6 galaxies, observed within 1Gyr of the Big Bang. We use imaging from HST and Spitzer from the public "Great…

A New Measurement of the Stellar Mass Density at z~5: Implications for the Sources of Cosmic Reionization

D. P. Stark, A. J. Bunker, R. S. Ellis +2

We present a new measurement of the integrated stellar mass per comoving volume at redshift 5 determined via spectral energy fitting drawn from a sample of 214 photometrically-sele…

Star Forming Galaxies at z~6 and Reionization

Andrew Bunker, Elizabeth Stanway, Richard Ellis +3

We determine the abundance of i'-band drop-outs in the HST/ACS GOODS surveys and the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (UDF). The majority of these sources are likely to be z~6 galaxies whos…

Spitzer Imaging of i'-drop Galaxies: Old Stars at z~6

Laurence Eyles, Andrew Bunker, Elizabeth Stanway +3

We present new evidence for mature stellar populations with ages >100Myr in massive galaxies (M_stellar>10^10M_sun) seen at a time when the Universe was less than 1Gyr old. We anal…
