Extreme emission-line galaxies out to z1 in zCOSMOS. I. Sample and characterization of global properties

Ricardo Amorín, E. Pérez-Montero, T. Contini +36

We present a thorough characterization of a large sample of 183 extreme emission-line galaxies (EELGs) at redshift 0.11 < z < 0.93 selected from the 20k zCOSMOS Bright Survey becau…

The cosmic evolution of oxygen and nitrogen abundances in star-forming galaxies over the past 10 Gyrs

E. Perez-Montero, T. Contini, F. Lamareille +35

The chemical evolution of galaxies on a cosmological timescale is still a matter of debate despite the increasing number of available data provided by spectroscopic surveys of star…

Environmental effects in the interaction and merging of galaxies in zCOSMOS survey

P. Kampczyk, S. J. Lilly, the zCOSMOS Collaboration

The zCOSMOS-bright 10k spectroscopic sample reveals a strong environmental dependence of close kinematic galaxy pair fractions in the redshift range 0.2 < z < 1. The fraction of cl…

Comparison of star formation rates from Halpha and infrared luminosities as seen by Herschel

H. Domínguez, M. Mignoli, F. Pozzi +55

We empirically test the relation between the SFR(LIR) derived from the infrared luminosity, LIR, and the SFR(Ha) derived from the Ha emission line luminosity using simple conversio…

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…
