The intriguing life of star-forming galaxies in the redshift range 1 < z < 2 using MASSIV
P. Amram, C. Lopez-Sanjuan, B. Epinat +13
MASSIV (Massiv Assembly Survey with SINFONI in VVDS) is an ESO large program which consists of 84 star-forming galaxies, spanning in a wide range of stellar masses, observed with t…
Mass Assembly of High-z Galaxies with MASSIV
V. Perret, B. Epinat, P. Amram +13
MASSIV (Mass Assembly Survey with SINFONI in VVDS) is a sample of 84 distant star-forming galaxies observed with the SINFONI Integral Field Unit (IFU) on the VLT. These galaxies ar…
MASSIV: Mass Assembly Survey with SINFONI in VVDS. V. The major merger rate of star-forming galaxies at 0.9 < z < 1.8 from IFS-based close pairs
C. López-Sanjuan, O. Le Fèvre, L. A. M. Tasca +12
We aim to measure the major merger rate of star-forming galaxies at 0.9 < z <1.8, using close pairs identified from integral field spectroscopy (IFS). We use the velocity field map…
MASSIV: Mass Assemby Survey with SINFONI in VVDS. I. Survey description and global properties of the 0.9 < z < 1.8 galaxy sample
T. Contini, B. Garilli, O. Le Fevre +11
Understanding how galaxies evolve and assemble their mass across cosmic time is still a fundamental unsolved issue. To get insight into the various processes of galaxy mass assembl…
Probing the Mass Assembly and Chemical Evolution of High-z Galaxies with MASSIV
T. Contini, B. Epinat, J. Queyrel +11
Understanding the different mechanisms of galaxy assembly at various cosmic epochs is a key issue for galaxy evolution and formation models. We present MASSIV (Mass Assembly Survey…
Integral field spectroscopy with SINFONI of VVDS galaxies. I. Galaxy dynamics and mass assembly at 1.2 < z < 1.6
B. Epinat, T. Contini, O. Le Fevre +6
Context. Identifying the main processes of galaxy assembly at high redshifts is still a major issue to understand galaxy formation and evolution at early epochs in the history of t…
Integral field spectroscopy with SINFONI of VVDS galaxies. II. The mass-metallicity relation at 1.2 < z < 1.6
J. Queyrel, T. Contini, E. Perez-Montero +8
This work aims to provide a first insight into the mass-metallicity (MZ) relation of star-forming galaxies at redshift z~1.4. To reach this goal, we present a first set of nine VVD…
