Environmental effects in the interaction and merging of galaxies in zCOSMOS

P. Kampczyk, S. J. Lilly, L. de Ravel +56

(Abridged) We analyze the environments and galactic properties (morphologies and star-formation histories) of a sample of 153 close kinematic pairs in the redshift range 0.2 < z <…

Galaxy cluster searches based on photometric redshifts in the four CFHTLS Wide fields

F. Durret, C. Adami, A. Cappi +19

We have developed a method for detecting clusters in large imaging surveys, based on the detection of structures in galaxy density maps made in slices of photometric redshifts. Thi…

The impact of galaxy interactions on AGN activity in zCOSMOS

J. D. Silverman, P. Kampczyk, K. Jahnke +52

Close encounters between galaxies are expected to be a viable mechanism, as predicted by numerical simulations, by which accretion onto supermassive black holes can be initiated. T…

The Star Formation Rate Density and Dust Attenuation Evolution over 12 Gyr with the VVDS Surveys

O. Cucciati, L. Tresse, O. Ilbert +15

[Abridged] We investigate the global galaxy evolution over 12 Gyr (0.05<z<4.5), from the star formation rate density (SFRD), combining the VVDS Deep (17.5<=I<=24.0) and Ultra-Deep…

Dissecting Photometric redshift for Active Galactic Nuclei using XMM- and Chandra-COSMOS samples

M. Salvato, O. Ilbert, G. Hasinger +61

With this paper, we release accurate photometric redshifts for 1692 counterparts to Chandra sources in the central square degree of the COSMOS field. The availability of a large tr…

The evolution of quiescent galaxies at high redshift (z > 1.4)

H. Domínguez Sánchez, F. Pozzi, C. Gruppioni +45

We have studied the evolution of high redshift quiescent galaxies over an effective area of ~1.7 deg^2 in the COSMOS field. Galaxies have been divided according to their star-forma…

Black hole accretion and host galaxies of obscured quasars in XMM-COSMOS

V. Mainieri, A. Bongiorno, A. Merloni +61

We explore the connection between black hole growth at the center of obscured quasars selected from the XMM-COSMOS survey and the physical properties of their host galaxies. We stu…
