The Rest-Frame FUV Morphologies of Star-Forming Galaxies at z ~ 1.5 and z ~ 4
J. M. Lotz, P. Madau, M. Giavalisco +2
We apply a new approach to quantifying galaxy morphology and identifying galaxy mergers to the rest-frame far-ultraviolet images of 82 z ~ 4 Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) and 55 1.2…

Lyman Break Galaxies at z~3 and Beyond
C. C. Steidel, K. L. Adelberger, M. Dickinson +2
We report on the status of large surveys of photometrically selected star forming galaxies at z~3 and z~4, with particular emphasis on both the advantages and the limitations of se…

The Discovery of Primeval Galaxies and the Epoch of Galaxy Formation
Max Pettini, Charles C. Steidel, Kurt L. Adelberger +3
We review the steps which have led to the discovery of a widespread population of objects at z = 3 with many of the characteristics which we expect for primeval galaxies, and empha…
