An H-band survey of the Herschel Deep Field

N. Metcalfe, T. Shanks, P. M. Weilbacher +3

We present H-band infra-red galaxy data to a 3 sigma limit of H=22.9 and optical-infra-red colours of galaxies on the William Herschel Deep Field. These data were taken from a 7'x…

The Local Hole in the Galaxy Distribution: New Optical Evidence

G. S. Busswell, T. Shanks, P. J. Outram +3

We present a new CCD survey of galaxies within the N and S strips of the 2dFGRS areas. We use the new CCD data to check the photographic photometry scales of the 2dFGRS, APMBGC, AP…

Galaxy number counts - V. Ultra-deep counts: The Herschel and Hubble Deep Fields

N. Metcalfe, T. Shanks, A. Campos +2

We present u,b,r & i galaxy number counts and colours both from the North and South Hubble Space Telescope Deep Fields and from the William Herschel Deep Field. The latter comprise…

Galaxy number counts- IV. surveying the Herschel deep field in the near-infrared

H. J. McCracken, N. Metcalfe, T. Shanks +2

(abridged) We present results from two new near-infrared imaging surveys. One covers 47.2 arcmin^2 to K(3σ)<20 whilst a second, deeper survey covers a sub-area of 1.8 arcmin^2 to K…

Galaxy Counts, Sizes, Colours and Redshifts in the Hubble Deep Field

T. Shanks, N. Metcalfe, R. Fong +3

We compare the galaxy evolution models of Bruzual & Charlot (1993) with the faint galaxy count, size and colour data from the Hubble and Herschel Deep Fields (Metcalfe et al 1996).…

Galaxy Formation at High Redshift

N. Metcalfe, T. Shanks, A. Campos +2

Sensitive optical surveys have revealed a large population of `faint blue galaxies' which are believed to be young galaxies, observed close to their time of formation. But there ha…
