Signs of environmental effects on star-forming galaxies in the Spiderweb protocluster at z=2.16

Jose Manuel Pérez-Martínez, Helmut Dannerbauer, Tadayuki Kodama +11

We use multi-object near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy with VLT/KMOS to investigate the role of the environment in the evolution of the ionized gas properties of narrow-band selected…

Is the Bremer Deep Field ionised, at z~7?

José Miguel Rodriguez Espinosa, J. Miguel Mas-Hesse, Rosa Calvi

We show herein that the population of star forming galaxies in the Bremer Deep Field (BDF) have enough ionising power to form two large ionised bubbles which could be in the proces…

Probing the existence of a rich galaxy overdensity at z=5.2

R. Calvi, H. Dannerbauer, P. Arrabal Haro +4

We report the results of a pilot spectroscopic program of a region at z=5.2 in the GOODS-N field containing an overdensity of galaxies around the well-known submillimeter galaxy HD…

An ionised bubble powered by a proto-cluster at z = 6.5

J. M. Rodriguez Espinosa, J. M. Mas-Hesse, E. Salvador Sole +7

We show herein that a proto-cluster of Ly emitting galaxies, spectroscopically confirmed at redshift 6.5, produces a remarkable number of ionising continuum photons. We start fr…

MOS spectroscopy of protocluster candidate galaxies at z=6.5

Rosa Calvi, José Miguel Rodríguez Espinosa, José Miguel Mas-Hesse +7

The epoch corresponding to a redshift of z is close to full re-ionisation of the Universe, and early enough to provide an intriguing environment to observe the early sta…

Morphology rather than environment drives the SFR-Mass relation in the local universe

R. Calvi, B. Vulcani, B. M. Poggianti +3

Exploiting a sample of 680 star-forming galaxies from the Padova-Millennium GalaxyGroup Catalog (PM2GC) (Calvi et al. 2011) in the range 0.038<z<0.104, we present a detailed analys…

GTC Observations of an Overdense Region of LAEs at z=6.5

K. Chanchaiworawit, R. Guzmán, J. M. Rodríguez Espinosa +12

We present the results of our search for the faint galaxies near the end of the Reionisation Epoch. This has been done using very deep OSIRIS images obtained at the Gran Telescopio…

The star formation history of galaxies: the role of galaxy mass, morphology and environment

Valentina Guglielmo, Bianca M. Poggianti, Alessia Moretti +5

We analyze the star formation history (SFH) of galaxies as a function of present-day environment, galaxy stellar mass and morphology. The SFH is derived by means of a non-parametri…

From blue star-forming to red passive: galaxies in transition in different environments

Benedetta Vulcani, Bianca M. Poggianti, Jacopo Fritz +4

Exploiting a mass complete (M_*>10^(10.25)M_sun) sample at 0.03<z<0.11 drawn from the Padova Millennium Galaxy Group Catalog (PM2GC), we use the (U-B)_rf color and morphologies to…

What do simulations predict for the galaxy stellar mass function and its evolution in different environments?

B. Vulcani, G. De Lucia, B. M. Poggianti +3

We present a comparison between the observed galaxy stellar mass function and the one predicted from the De Lucia & Blaizot (2007) semi-analytic model applied to the Millennium Sim…

The evolution of the number density of compact galaxies

B. M. Poggianti, A. Moretti, R. Calvi +4

We compare the number density of compact (small size) massive galaxies at low and high redshift using our Padova Millennium Galaxy and Group Catalogue (PM2GC) at z=0.03-0.11 and th…

The impact of global environment on galaxy mass functions at low redshift

Rosa Calvi, Bianca M. Poggianti, Benedetta Vulcani +1

We study the galaxy stellar mass function in different environments in the local Universe, considering both the total mass function and that of individual galaxy morphological type…

The evolution of galaxy sizes

Bianca M. Poggianti, Rosa Calvi, Daniele Bindoni +10

We present a study of galaxy sizes in the local Universe as a function of galaxy environment, comparing clusters and the general field. Galaxies with radii and masses comparable to…
