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 <…

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…

Galaxy clustering in the CFHTLS-Wide: the changing relationship between galaxies and haloes since z ~ 1.2

J. Coupon, M. Kilbinger, H. J. McCracken +9

We present a detailed investigation of the changing relationship between galaxies and the dark matter haloes they inhabit from z~1.2 to the present day. We do this by comparing pre…

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…
