The [OIII] emission line luminosity function of optically selected type-2 AGN from zCOSMOS

A. Bongiorno, M. Mignoli, G. Zamorani +61

We present a catalog of 213 type-2 AGN selected from the zCOSMOS survey. The selected sample covers a wide redshift range (0.15<z<0.92) and is deeper than any other previous study,…

On the cosmic evolution of the scaling relations between black holes and their host galaxies: Broad Line AGN in the zCOSMOS survey

A. Merloni, A. Bongiorno, M. Bolzonella +56

(Abriged) We report on the measurement of the rest frame K-band luminosity and total stellar mass of the hosts of 89 broad line Active Galactic Nuclei detected in the zCOSMOS surve…

The 10k zCOSMOS: morphological transformation of galaxies in the group environment since z~1

K. Kovac, S. J. Lilly, C. Knobel +57

We study the evolution of galaxies inside and outside of the group environment since z=1 using a large well defined set of groups and galaxies from the zCOSMOS-bright redshift surv…

K+a galaxies in the zCOSMOS Survey: Physical properties of systems in their post-starburst phase

D. Vergani, G. Zamorani, S. J. Lilly +59

The identities of the main processes triggering and quenching star-formation in galaxies remain unclear. A key stage in evolution, however, appears to be represented by post-starbu…

zCOSMOS - 10k-bright spectroscopic sample. The bimodality in the Galaxy Stellar Mass Function: exploring its evolution with redshift

L. Pozzetti, M. Bolzonella, E. Zucca +56

We present the Galaxy Stellar Mass Function (MF) up to z~1 from the zCOSMOS-bright 10k spectroscopic sample. We investigate the total MF and the contribution of ETGs and LTGs, defi…

The zCOSMOS Redshift Survey: the role of environment and stellar mass in shaping the rise of the morphology-density relation from z~1

L. A. M. Tasca, J. P. Kneib, A. Iovino +57

For more than two decades we have known that galaxy morphological segregation is present in the Local Universe. It is important to see how this relation evolves with cosmic time. T…
