Spiral and irregular galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field North - Comparison with early types and implications for the global SFR density
G. Rodighiero, G. L. Granato, A. Franceschini +2
We analyze a morphologically-selected complete sample of 52 late-type (spiral and irregular) galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field North with total K-magnitudes brighter than K=20.47.…
High-Redshift Galaxies: The Far-Infrared and Sub-Millimeter View
Alberto Franceschini
Observations at long wavelengths, in the wide interval from a few to 1000 micron, are essential to study diffuse media in galaxies, including all kinds of atomic, ionic and molecul…
An excess of mid-IR luminous galaxies in Abell 1689?
D. Fadda, D. Elbaz, P. -A. Duc +4
We present the results of infrared observations of Abell 1689 which was observed with ISOCAM, at 6.7\mic and 15\mic, and ISOPHOT at 200\mic. The cluster galaxies detected above a s…
The extragalactic background and its fluctuations in the far-infrared wavelengths
G. Lagache, J-L. Puget, A. Abergel +22
A Cosmic Far-InfraRed Background (CFIRB) has long been predicted that would traces the intial phases of galaxy formation. It has been first detected by Puget et al.(1996) using COB…
NIR Spectroscopy with the VLT of a sample of ISO selected Hubble Deep Field South Galaxies
D. Rigopoulou, A. Franceschini, R. Genzel +6
A new population of faint galaxies characterized by an extremely high rate of evolution with redshift up to z~1.5 has recently been discovered by ISO. These sources are likely to c…
