Comparison of the VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey with the Munich semi-analytical model - I. Magnitude counts, redshift distribution, colour bimodality, and galaxy clustering
S. de la Torre, B. Meneux, G. De Lucia +37
This paper presents a detailed comparison between high-redshift observations from the VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS) and predictions from the Munich semi-analytical model of galaxy f…
The bimodality of the 10k zCOSMOS-bright galaxies up to z ~ 1: a new statistical and portable classification based on the optical galaxy properties
G. Coppa, M. Mignoli, G. Zamorani +56
Our goal is to develop a new and reliable statistical method to classify galaxies from large surveys. We probe the reliability of the method by comparing it with a three-dimensiona…
The zCOSMOS 10k-sample: the role of galaxy stellar mass in the colour-density relation up to z=1
O. Cucciati, A. Iovino, K. Kovac +53
[Abridged] With the first 10000 spectra of the flux limited zCOSMOS sample (I<=22.5) we study the evolution of environmental effects on galaxy properties since z=1.0, and disentang…
Understanding the shape of the galaxy two-point correlation function at z~1 in the COSMOS field
S. de la Torre, L. Guzzo, K. Kovac +59
We investigate how the shape of the galaxy two-point correlation function as measured in the zCOSMOS survey depends on local environment, quantified in terms of the density contras…
The XMM-Newton Wide-Field Survey in the COSMOS field (XMM-COSMOS): demography and multiwavelength properties of obscured and unobscured luminous AGN
M. Brusa, F. Civano, A. Comastri +64
We report the final optical identifications of the medium-depth (~60 ksec), contiguous (2 deg^2) XMM-Newton survey of the COSMOS field. XMM-Newton has detected ~800 X-ray sources d…
The VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey: Evolution in the Halo Occupation Number since z 1
U. Abbas, S. de la Torre, O. Le Fèvre +47
We model the evolution of the mean galaxy occupation of dark-matter halos over the range , using the data from the VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS). The galaxy projected cor…
Mass and environment as drivers of galaxy evolution in SDSS and zCOSMOS and the origin of the Schechter function
Y. Peng, S. J. Lilly, K. Kovac +61
We explore the inter-relationships between mass, star-formation rate and environment in the SDSS, zCOSMOS and other surveys. The differential effects of mass and environment are co…
The VIMOS VLT Deep Survey: Star Formation Rate Density of Lya emitters from a sample of 217 galaxies with spectroscopic redshifts 2<z<6.6
P. Cassata, O. Le Fevre, B. Garilli +18
Aims. The aim of this work is to study the contribution of the Ly-a emitters (LAE) to the star formation rate density (SFRD) of the Universe in the interval 2<z<6.6. Methods. We as…
Ultraluminous X-ray sources out to z~0.3 in the COSMOS field
V. Mainieri, C. Vignali, A. Merloni +59
Using Chandra observations we have identified a sample of seven off-nuclear X-ray sources, in the redshift range z=0.072-0.283, located within optically bright galaxies in the COSM…
