The VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey: Luminosity dependence of clustering at z~1

A. Pollo, L. Guzzo, O. Le Fevre +2

We investigate the dependence of galaxy clustering on the galaxy intrinsic luminosity at high redshift, using the data from the First Epoch VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS). The size (…

The VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey - The evolution of galaxy clustering per spectral type to z~1.5

B. Meneux, O. LeFevre, L. Guzzo +47

We measure the evolution of clustering for galaxies with different spectral types from 6495 galaxies with 17.5<=I_AB<=24 and measured spectroscopic redshift in the first epoch VIMO…

A large population of galaxies 9 to 12 billion years back in the history of the Universe

O. Le Fevre, S. Paltani, S. Arnouts +6

To understand the evolution of galaxies, we need to know as accurately as possible how many galaxies were present in the Universe at different epochs. Galaxies in the young Univers…

The VIMOS Integral Field Unit: data reduction methods and quality assessment

A. Zanichelli, B. Garilli, M. Scodeggio +38

With new generation spectrographs integral field spectroscopy is becoming a widely used observational technique. The Integral Field Unit of the VIsible Multi-Object Spectrograph on…

The HELLAS2XMM survey. IX. Spectroscopic identification of super-EROs hosting AGNs

R. Maiolino, M. Mignoli, L. Pozzetti +12

We present VLT near-IR spectroscopic observations of three X-ray sources characterized by extremely high X-ray-to-optical ratios (X/O>40), extremely red colors (6.3<R-K<7.4, i.e. E…

The HELLAS2XMM survey. VII. The hard X-ray luminosity function of AGN up to z=4: more absorbed AGN at low luminosities and high redshifts

F. La Franca, F. Fiore, A. Comastri +14

We have determined the cosmological evolution of the density of AGN and of their Nh distribution as a function of the un-absorbed 2-10 keV luminosity up to redshift 4. We used the…
