Environmental effects in the interaction and merging of galaxies in zCOSMOS

P. Kampczyk, S. J. Lilly, L. de Ravel +56

(Abridged) We analyze the environments and galactic properties (morphologies and star-formation histories) of a sample of 153 close kinematic pairs in the redshift range 0.2 < z <…

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…

GMASS ultradeep spectroscopy of galaxies at z ~ 2 - VII. Star formation, extinction, and gas outflows from UV spectra

M. Talia, M. Mignoli, A. Cimatti +13

We use rest-frame UV spectroscopy to investigate the properties related to large-scale gas outflows, and to the dust extinction and star-formation rates of a sample of z ~ 2 star-f…

X-ray Groups of Galaxies at 0.5<z<1 in zCOSMOS: Increased AGN Activities in High Redshift Groups

M. Tanaka, A. Finoguenov, S. J. Lilly +48

We present a photometric and spectroscopic study of galaxies at 0.5<z<1 as a function of environment based on data from the zCOSMOS survey. There is a fair amount of evidence that…

The zCOSMOS-SINFONI Project I: Sample Selection and Natural-Seeing Observations

Chiara Mancini, Natascha Foerster Schreiber, Alvio Renzini +21

The zCOSMOS SINFONI project is aimed at studying the physical and kinematical properties of a sample of massive z~1.4-2.5 star-forming galaxies, through SINFONI near-IR integral fi…

The impact of galaxy interactions on AGN activity in zCOSMOS

J. D. Silverman, P. Kampczyk, K. Jahnke +52

Close encounters between galaxies are expected to be a viable mechanism, as predicted by numerical simulations, by which accretion onto supermassive black holes can be initiated. T…
