Pixel-z: Studying Substructure and Stellar Populations in Galaxies out to z~3 using Pixel Colors I. Systematics

Niraj Welikala, Andrew M. Hopkins, Brant E. Robertson +7

We perform a pixel-by-pixel analysis of 467 galaxies in the GOODS-VIMOS survey to study systematic effects in extracting properties of stellar populations (age, dust, metallicity a…

The Galaxy Stellar Mass Function of X-ray detected groups: environmental dependence of galaxy evolution in the COSMOS survey

S. Giodini, A. Finoguenov, D. Pierini +6

We study the stellar mass distribution for galaxies in 160 X-ray detected groups of 10^13<Log(M_200/M_sun)<2x10^14 and compare it with that of galaxies in the field, to investigate…

Measuring the Geometry of the Universe from Weak Gravitational Lensing behind Galaxy Groups in the HST COSMOS survey

James E. Taylor, Richard J. Massey, Alexie Leauthaud +12

Gravitational lensing can provide pure geometric tests of the structure of space-time, for instance by determining empirically the angular diameter distance-redshift relation. This…

The WIRCam Deep Survey I: Counts, colours and mass-functions derived from near-infrared imaging in the CFHTLS deep fields

R. Bielby, P. Hudelot, H. J. McCracken +10

We present a new near-infrared imaging survey in the four CFHTLS deep fields: the WIRCam Deep Survey (WIRDS). WIRDS comprises extremely deep, high quality (FWHM ~0.6") J, H and K i…

Euclid Definition Study Report

R. Laureijs, J. Amiaux, S. Arduini +216

Euclid is a space-based survey mission from the European Space Agency designed to understand the origin of the Universe's accelerating expansion. It will use cosmological probes to…

The evolution of the star formation activity per halo mass up to redshift ~ 1.6 as seen by Herschel

P. Popesso, A. Biviano, G. Rodighiero +40

Star formation in massive galaxies is quenched at some point during hierarchical mass assembly. To understand where and when the quenching processes takes place, we study the evolu…
