Galaxy clusters in the VIDEO fields: detection and characterisation in the context of MOONRISE

Pierre Galois, Christophe Benoist, Gianluca Castignani +21

We analyse the cluster content of the XMM-LSS and CDFS VIDEO fields which are expected to be partially covered by the upcoming MOONRISE survey. Using AMI…

How to Measure Galaxy Star Formation Histories II: Nonparametric Models

Joel Leja, Adam C. Carnall, Benjamin D. Johnson +2

Nonparametric star formation histories (SFHs) have long promised to be the `gold standard' for galaxy spectral energy distribution (SED) modeling as they are flexible enough to des…

How to measure galaxy star-formation histories I: Parametric models

A. C. Carnall, J. Leja, B. D. Johnson +3

Parametric models for galaxy star-formation histories (SFHs) are widely used, though they are known to impose strong priors on physical parameters. This has consequences for measur…

The evolution of post-starburst galaxies from z=2 to z= 0.5

Vivienne Wild, Omar Almaini, Jim Dunlop +5

We present the evolution in the number density and stellar mass functions of photometrically selected post-starburst galaxies in the UKIDSS Deep Survey (UDS), with redshifts of 0.5…

A mass threshold in the number density of passive galaxies at z2

V. Sommariva, A. Fontana, A. Lamastra +16

The process that quenched star formation in galaxies at intermediate and high redshift is still the subject of considerable debate. One way to investigate this puzzling issue is to…

No excess of bright galaxies around the redshift 7.1 quasar ULAS J1120+0641

Chris Simpson, Daniel Mortlock, Stephen Warren +5

We present optical and near-infrared imaging of the field of the z=7.0842 quasar ULAS J112001.48+064124.3 taken with the Hubble Space Telescope. We use these data to search for gal…
