The evolution of the star formation activity in galaxies and its dependence on environment
B. M. Poggianti, A. von der Linden, G. De Lucia +16
We study how the proportion of star-forming galaxies evolves between z=0.8 and z=0 as a function of galaxy environment, using the [OII] line in emission as a signature of ongoing s…
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 (…
Weak lensing mass reconstructions of the ESO Distant Cluster Survey
D. Clowe, P. Schneider, A. Aragon-Salamanca +12
We present weak lensing mass reconstructions for the 20 high-redshift clusters i n the ESO Distant Cluster Survey. The weak lensing analysis was performed on deep, 3-color optical…
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…
EDisCS -- the ESO Distant Cluster Survey -- Sample Definition and Optical Photometry
S. D. M. White, D. I. Clowe, L. Simard +23
We present the ESO Distant Cluster Survey (EDisCS) a survey of 20 fields containing distant galaxy clusters with redshifts ranging from 0.4 to almost 1.0. Candidate clusters were c…
The VIRMOS deep imaging survey IV: Near-infrared observations
A. Iovino, H. J. McCracken, B. Garilli +49
In this paper we present a new deep, wide-field near-infrared imaging survey. Our J- and K-band observations in four separate fields complement optical BVRI, ultraviolet and spectr…
The VVDS-VLA Deep Field II. Optical and near infrared identifications of VLA S(1.4GHz)>80 microJy sources in the VIMOS VLT Deep Survey VVDS-02h field
P. Ciliegi, G. Zamorani, M. Bondi +46
In this paper we present the optical and near-infrared identifications of the 1054 radio sources detected in the 20cm deep radio survey down to a 5sigma flux limit of about 80 micr…
Stellar populations and Lya emission in two lensed z>~6 galaxies
Daniel Schaerer, Roser Pello
We present an analysis of two strongly lensed galaxies at z=6.56 and z ~ 7 for which multi-band photometric and spectroscopic observations are available. For one source the data in…
The VIMOS VLT Deep Survey - Evolution of the luminosity functions by galaxy type up to z=1.5 from first epoch data
E. Zucca, O. Ilbert, S. Bardelli +47
From the first epoch observations of the VVDS up to z=1.5 we have derived luminosity functions (LF) of different spectral type galaxies. The VVDS data, covering ~70% of the life of…
Halpha-Derived Star-Formation Rates For Three z ~ 0.75 EDisCS Galaxy Clusters
Rose A. Finn, Dennis Zaritsky, Donald W. McCarthy +6
We present Halpha-derived star-formation rates (SFRs) for three z ~ 0.75 galaxy clusters. Our 1 sigma flux limit corresponds to a star-formation rate of 0.10-0.24 solar mass per ye…
