A2163: Merger events in the hottest Abell galaxy cluster I. Dynamical analysis from optical data

S. Maurogordato, A. Cappi, C. Ferrari +7

We present a detailed optical analysis of the galaxy cluster A2163 based on new multicolor wide field imaging and medium-to-high resolution (R~2000) spectroscopy. While X-ray obser…

The VIMOS VLT Deep Survey: Tracing the galaxy stellar mass assembly history over the last 8Gyr

D. Vergani, M. Scodeggio, L. Pozzetti +46

We selected a mass-limited sample of 4048 objects from the VIMOS VLT Deep Survey in the redshift interval 0.5<z<1.3. We used the amplitude of the 4000 Balmer break (Dn4000) to sepa…

The SWIRE-VVDS-CFHTLS surveys: stellar mass assembly over the last 10 Gyears. Evidence for a major build up of the red sequence between z=2 and z=1

S. Arnouts, C. J. Walcher, O. Le Fevre +43

(abridged abstract) We present an analysis of the stellar mass growth over the last 10 Gyrs using a large 3.6 selected sample. We split our sample into active (blue) and quiesce…

The VVDS type-1 AGN sample: The faint end of the luminosity function

A. Bongiorno, G. Zamorani, I. Gavignaud +51

In a previous paper (Gavignaud et al. 2006), we presented the type-1 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) sample obtained from the first epoch data of the VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS). The…

The VIMOS VLT Deep Survey. The Assembly History of the Stellar Mass in Galaxies: from the Young to the Old Universe

L. Pozzetti, M. Bolzonella, F. Lamareille +47

We present a detailed analysis of the Galaxy Stellar Mass Function of galaxies up to z=2.5 as obtained from the VVDS. We estimate the stellar mass from broad-band photometry using…

Studying the evolution of large-scale structure with the VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey

L. Guzzo, O. Le Fevre, B. Meneux +16

The VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS) currently offers a unique combination of depth, angular size and number of measured galaxies among surveys of the distant Universe: ~ 11,000 spectr…
