Quenching of Star Formation in SDSS Groups: Centrals, Satellites, and Galactic Conformity

Christian Knobel, Simon J. Lilly, Joanna Woo +1

We re-examine the fraction of low-redshift Sloan Digital Sky Survey satellites and centrals in which star formation has been quenched, using the environment quenching efficiency fo…

The zCOSMOS Redshift Survey: evolution of the light in bulges and discs since z~0.8

L. A. M. Tasca, L. Tresse, O. Le Fevre +52

We studied the chronology of galactic bulge and disc formation by analysing the relative contributions of these components to the B-band rest-frame luminosity density at different…

Extreme emission-line galaxies out to z1 in zCOSMOS. I. Sample and characterization of global properties

Ricardo Amorín, E. Pérez-Montero, T. Contini +36

We present a thorough characterization of a large sample of 183 extreme emission-line galaxies (EELGs) at redshift 0.11 < z < 0.93 selected from the 20k zCOSMOS Bright Survey becau…

The dependence of Galactic outflows on the properties and orientation of zCOSMOS galaxies at z ~ 1

R. Bordoloi, S. J. Lilly, E. Hardmeier +44

We present an analysis of cool outflowing gas around galaxies, traced by MgII absorption lines in the co-added spectra of a sample of 486 zCOSMOS galaxies at 1 < z < 1.5. These gal…

zCOSMOS 20k: Satellite galaxies are the main drivers of environmental effects in the galaxy population at least to z~0.7

K. Kovac, S. J. Lilly, C. Knobel +41

We explore the role of environment in the evolution of galaxies over 0.1<z<0.7 using the final zCOSMOS-bright data set. Using the red fraction of galaxies as a proxy for the quench…

Obscured AGN at z~1 from the zCOSMOS-Bright Survey I. Selection and Optical Properties of a [Ne v]-selected sample

M. Mignoli, C. Vignali, R. Gilli +46

A sample of 94 narrow line AGN with 0.65<z<1.20 has been selected from the 20k-Bright zCOSMOS galaxy sample by detection of the high-ionization [NeV]3426 line. Taking advantage of…
