Studying distant dwarf galaxies with GEMS and SDSS
Fabio D. Barazza, Shardha Jogee, Hans-Walter Rix +7
We study the colors, structural properties, and star formation histories of a sample of ~1600 dwarfs over look-back times of ~3 Gyr (z=0.002-0.25). The sample consists of 401 dista…
Oxygen Gas Abundances at z~1.4: Implications for the Chemical Evolution History of Galaxies
C. Maier, S. J. Lilly, C. M. Carollo +3
The 1<z<2 redshift window hosts the peak of the star formation and metal production rates. Studies of the metal content of the star forming galaxies at these epochs are however spa…
WFILAS: Wide Field Imager Lyman Alpha Search
Eduard Westra, D. Heath Jones, Chris Lidman +6
The Wide Field Imager Lyman-Alpha Search (WFILAS) is a search for Lya emitting galaxies at z~5.7. Deep images from the Wide Field Imager (WFI) on the ESO/MPI 2.2m telescope have be…
Oxygen Gas Abundances at 0.4<z<1.5: Implications for the Chemical Evolution History of Galaxies
C. Maier, S. J. Lilly, C. M. Carollo
We report VLT-ISAAC and Keck-NIRSPEC near-infrared spectroscopy for a sample of 30 0.47<z<0.92 CFRS galaxies and five [OII]-selected, M_B,AB<-21.5, z~1.4 galaxies. We have measured…
VLT Diffraction Limited Imaging and Spectroscopy in the NIR: Weighing the black hole in Centaurus A with NACO
N. Haering-Neumayer, M. Cappellari, H. -W. Rix +4
We present high spatial resolution near-infrared spectra and images of the nucleus of Centaurus A (NGC 5128) obtained with NAOS-CONICA at the VLT. The adaptive optics corrected dat…
Galaxy Luminosity Functions to z~1: DEEP2 vs. COMBO-17 and Implications for Red Galaxy Formation
S. M. Faber, C. N. A. Willmer, C. Wolf +28
The DEEP2 and COMBO-17 surveys are used to study the evolution of the luminosity function of red and blue galaxies to . Schechter function fits show that, since ,…
