Galaxy Zoo: Quantitative Visual Morphological Classifications for 48,000 galaxies from CANDELS

B. D. Simmons, Chris Lintott, Kyle W. Willett +45

We present quantified visual morphologies of approximately 48,000 galaxies observed in three Hubble Space Telescope legacy fields by the Cosmic And Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic…

The Evolution of Galaxies at Constant Number Density: A Less Biased View of Star Formation, Quenching, and Structural Formation

Jamie R. Ownsworth, Christopher J. Conselice, Carl J. Mundy +4

Due to significant galaxy contamination and impurity in stellar mass selected samples (up to 95% from z=0-3), we examine the star formation history, quenching time-scales, and stru…

Tracing galaxy populations through cosmic time: A critical test of methods for connecting the same galaxies between different redshifts at

Carl J. Mundy, Christopher J. Conselice, Jamie R. Ownsworth

Connecting galaxies with their descendants (or progenitors) at different redshifts can yield strong constraints on galaxy evolution. Observational studies have historically selecte…

Deconstructing the Galaxy Stellar Mass Function with UKIDSS and CANDELS: the Impact of Colour, Structure and Environment

Alice Mortlock, Christopher. J. Conselice, William G. Hartley +15

We combine photometry from the UDS, and CANDELS UDS and CANDELS GOODS-S surveys to construct the galaxy stellar mass function probing both the low and high mass end accurately in t…

Minor vs Major Mergers: The Stellar Mass Growth of Massive Galaxies from z=3 using Number Density Selection Techniques

Jamie R. Ownsworth, Christopher J. Conselice, Alice Mortlock +4

We present a study on the stellar mass growth of the progenitors of local massive galaxies with a variety of number density selections with (cor…

Galaxy Zoo: CANDELS Barred Disks and Bar Fractions

B. D. Simmons, Thomas Melvin, Chris Lintott +39

The formation of bars in disk galaxies is a tracer of the dynamical maturity of the population. Previous studies have found that the incidence of bars in disks decreases from the l…

The mass evolution of the first galaxies: stellar mass functions and star formation rates at in the CANDELS GOODS-South field

Kenneth Duncan, Christopher J. Conselice, Alice Mortlock +16

We measure new estimates for the galaxy stellar mass function and star formation rates for samples of galaxies at using data in the CANDELS GOODS South field.…

The Redshift and Mass Dependence on the Formation of The Hubble Sequence at z>1 from CANDELS/UDS

Alice Mortlock, Christopher J. Conselice, William G. Hartley +16

In this paper we present a detailed study of the structures and morphologies of a sample of 1188 massive galaxies with Mstar>10^10Msun between redshifts z=1-3 within the Ultra Deep…

Evolution of Massive Galaxy Structural Properties and Sizes via Star Formation

Jamie R. Ownsworth, Christopher J. Conselice, Alice Mortlock +2

We investigate the resolved star formation properties of a sample of 45 massive galaxies (M_*>10^11M_solar) within a redshift range of 1.5 < z < 3 detected in the GOODS NICMOS Surv…

Evolution of Massive Galaxy Structural Properties and Sizes via Star Formation In the GOODS NICMOS Survey

Jamie R. Ownsworth, Christopher J. Conselice, Alice Mortlock +2

We present a study of the resolved star-forming properties of a sample of distant massive M_*>10^11M_solar galaxies in the GOODS NICMOS Survey (GNS). We derive dust corrected UV st…

A Deep Probe of the Galaxy Stellar Mass Functions at z~1-3 with the GOODS NICMOS Survey

Alice Mortlock, Christopher J. Conselice, Asa F. L. Bluck +4

We use a sample of 8298 galaxies observed in the HST GOODS NICMOS Survey (GNS) to construct the galaxy stellar mass function as a function of both redshift and stellar mass up to z…
