Galaxy Zoo: Quantitative Visual Morphological Classifications for 48,000 galaxies from CANDELS
B. D. Simmons, Chris Lintott, Kyle W. Willett +45
We present quantified visual morphologies of approximately 48,000 galaxies observed in three Hubble Space Telescope legacy fields by the Cosmic And Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic…
Exploring the progenitors of brightest cluster galaxies at z~2
Dongyao Zhao, Christopher J. Conselice, Alfonso Aragón-Salamanca +5
We present a new method for tracing the evolution of BCGs from to . We conclude on the basis of semi-analytical models that the best method to select BCG progeni…
Major mergers are not significant drivers of star formation or morphological transformation around the epoch of peak cosmic star formation
E. K. Lofthouse, S. Kaviraj, C. J. Conselice +2
We investigate the contribution of major mergers (mass ratios ) to stellar mass growth and morphological transformations around the epoch of peak cosmic star formation ($z\si…
Evolution of cosmic star formation in the SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey
N. Bourne, J. S. Dunlop, E. Merlin +19
We present a new exploration of the cosmic star-formation history and dust obscuration in massive galaxies at redshifts . We utilize the deepest 450 and 850m imaging f…
The Evolution of Galaxy Number Density at z < 8 and its Implications
Christopher J. Conselice, Aaron Wilkinson, Kenneth Duncan +1
The evolution of the number density of galaxies in the universe, and thus also the total number of galaxies, is a fundamental question with implications for a host of astrophysical…
The Formation of Bulges, Discs and Two Component Galaxies in the CANDELS Survey at z < 3
Berta Margalef-Bentabol, Christopher J. Conselice, Alice Mortlock +6
We examine a sample of 1495 galaxies in the CANDELS fields to determine the evolution of two component galaxies, including bulges and discs, within massive galaxies at the epoch 1…
The Evolution of Galaxies at Constant Number Density: A Less Biased View of Star Formation, Quenching, and Structural Formation
Jamie R. Ownsworth, Christopher J. Conselice, Carl J. Mundy +4
Due to significant galaxy contamination and impurity in stellar mass selected samples (up to 95% from z=0-3), we examine the star formation history, quenching time-scales, and stru…
The SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey: The clustering of submillimetre galaxies in the UKIDSS UDS field
Aaron Wilkinson, Omar Almaini, Chian-Chou Chen +20
Submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) are among the most luminous dusty galaxies in the Universe, but their true nature remains unclear; are SMGs the progenitors of the massive elliptical…
The SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey: Multi-wavelengths counterparts to 10 submillimeter galaxies in the UKIDSS-UDS field
Chian-Chou Chen, Ian Smail, Rob J. Ivison +20
We present multiwavelength identifications for the counterparts of 1088 submillimeter sources detected at 850m in the SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey study of the UKIDSS-UDS fie…
