The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS): from the galaxy clustering ratio measured at

J. Bel, C. Marinoni, B. R. Granett +47

We use a sample of about 22,000 galaxies at from the VIPERS PDR-1 catalogue, to constrain the cosmological model through a measurement of the galaxy {\it clustering ra…

The dependence of Galactic outflows on the properties and orientation of zCOSMOS galaxies at z ~ 1

R. Bordoloi, S. J. Lilly, E. Hardmeier +44

We present an analysis of cool outflowing gas around galaxies, traced by MgII absorption lines in the co-added spectra of a sample of 486 zCOSMOS galaxies at 1 < z < 1.5. These gal…

The VIMOS VLT Deep Survey: the redshift distribution N(z) of magnitude-limited samples down to iAB=24.75 and KsAB=22

O. Le Fevre, P. Cassata, O. Cucciati +20

We measure and analyse the redshift distribution N(z) of magnitude-selected samples using spectroscopic redshift measurement from the magnitude-selected VIMOS VLT Deep Survey (VVDS…

zCOSMOS 20k: Satellite galaxies are the main drivers of environmental effects in the galaxy population at least to z~0.7

K. Kovac, S. J. Lilly, C. Knobel +41

We explore the role of environment in the evolution of galaxies over 0.1<z<0.7 using the final zCOSMOS-bright data set. Using the red fraction of galaxies as a proxy for the quench…

Obscured AGN at z~1 from the zCOSMOS-Bright Survey I. Selection and Optical Properties of a [Ne v]-selected sample

M. Mignoli, C. Vignali, R. Gilli +46

A sample of 94 narrow line AGN with 0.65<z<1.20 has been selected from the 20k-Bright zCOSMOS galaxy sample by detection of the high-ionization [NeV]3426 line. Taking advantage of…

Can dark energy viscosity be detected with the Euclid survey?

Domenico Sapone, Elisabetta Majerotto, Martin Kunz +1

Recent work has demonstrated that it is important to constrain the dynamics of cosmological perturbations, in addition to the evolution of the background, if we want to distinguish…

Investigating the relationship between AGN activity and stellar mass in zCOSMOS galaxies at 0<z<1 using emission line diagnostic diagrams

M. Vitale, M. Mignoli, A. Cimatti +49

We investigate the link between AGN activity, star-formation and stellar mass of the host galaxy at 0<z<1, looking for spectroscopic traces of AGN and aging of the host. This work…
