The evolution of the luminosity functions in the FORS Deep Field from low to high redshift: II. The red bands
A. Gabasch, U. Hopp, G. Feulner +12
We present the redshift evolution of the restframe galaxy luminosity function (LF) in the red r', i', and z' bands as derived from the FORS Deep Field (FDF). Using the deep and hom…

An optimal filter for the detection of galaxy clusters through weak lensing
M. Maturi, M. Meneghetti, M. Bartelmann +2
We construct a linear filter optimised for detecting dark-matter halos in weak-lensing data. The filter assumes a mean radial profile of the halo shear pattern and modifies that sh…

The evolution of the luminosity functions in the FORS Deep Field from low to high redshift: I. The blue bands
A. Gabasch, R. Bender, S. Seitz +13
We use the very deep and homogeneous I-band selected dataset of the FORS Deep Field (FDF) to trace the evolution of the luminosity function over the redshift range 0.5 < z < 5.0. W…
