Kiloparsec-scale gaseous clumps and star formation at
S. Carniani, R. Maiolino, R. Amorin +13
We investigate the morphology of the [CII] emission in a sample of "normal" star-forming galaxies at in relation to their UV (rest-frame) counterpart. We use new ALMA obs…
Simulating and interpreting deep observations in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field with the JWST/NIRSpec low-resolution 'prism'
Jacopo Chevallard, Emma Curtis-Lake, Stephane Charlot +16
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will enable the detection of optical emission lines in galaxies spanning a broad range of luminosities out to redshifts z>10. Measurements of…
On the faint-end of the galaxy luminosity function in the Epoch of Reionization: updated constraints from the HST Frontier Fields
B. Yue, M. Castellano, A. Ferrara +12
Ultra-faint galaxies are hosted by small dark matter halos with shallow gravitational potential wells, hence their star formation activity is more sensitive to feedback effects. Th…
The VIMOS Ultra-Deep Survey: evidence for AGN feedback in galaxies with CIII]-1908Å~emission 10.8 to 12.5 Gyr ago
O. Le Fèvre, B. C. Lemaux, K. Nakajima +19
We analyze the CIII]-1908Åemission properties in a sample of 3899 star-forming galaxies (SFGs) at 2<z<3.8 from the VIMOS Ultra-Deep Survey (VUDS). We find a median EW(CIII])=2.0$\p…
Ly-Lyman Continuum connection in 3.5 < z < 4.3 star-forming galaxies from the VUDS survey
F. Marchi, L. Pentericci, L. Guaita +16
To identify the galaxies responsible for the reionization of the Universe, we must rely on the investigation of the Lyman Continuum (LyC) properties of z<5 star-forming galaxies, w…
The VIMOS Ultra Deep Survey: Nature, ISM properties, and ionizing spectra of CIII]1909 emitters at z=2-4
K. Nakajima, D. Schaerer, O. Le Fevre +12
Context: Ultraviolet (UV) emission-line spectra are used to spectroscopically confirm high-z galaxies and increasingly also to determine their physical properties. Aims: To interpr…
The VIMOS Ultra Deep Survey: The role of HI kinematics and HI column density on the escape of Lyalpha photons in star-forming galaxies at 2<z<4
L. Guaita, M. Talia, L. Pentericci +22
We selected a sample of 76 Lya emitting galaxies from the VIMOS Ultra Deep Survey (VUDS) at 2<z<4. We estimated the velocity of the neutral gas flowing out of the interstellar medi…
The ASTRODEEP Frontier Fields Catalogues III. Multiwavelength photometry and rest frame properties of MACS-J0717 and MACS-J1149
M. Di Criscienzo, E. Merlin, M. Castellano +14
We present the multiwavelength photometry of two Frontier Fields massive galaxy clusters MACS-J0717 and MACS-J1149 and their parallel fields, ranging from HST to ground based K and…
The Star Formation Main Sequence in the Hubble Space Telescope Frontier Fields
Paola Santini, Adriano Fontana, Marco Castellano +13
We investigate the relation between the star formation rate (SFR) and the stellar mass (M), i.e. the Main Sequence (MS) relation of star-forming galaxies, at 1.3<=z<6 in the first…
Optical Line Emission from z6.8 Sources with Deep Constraints on Ly Visibility
M. Castellano, L. Pentericci, A. Fontana +15
We analyze a sample of -dropout galaxies in the CANDELS GOODS South and UDS fields that have been targeted by a dedicated spectroscopic campaign aimed at detecting their Ly l…
The VIMOS Ultra Deep Survey: Emerging from the Dark, a Massive Proto-Cluster at z~4.57
B. C. Lemaux, O. Le Fèvre, O. Cucciati +20
Using spectroscopic observations taken for the VIMOS Ultra-Deep Survey (VUDS) we report here on the discovery of PCl J1001+0220, a massive proto-cluster located at $z_{spec}\sim4.5…
The Lyman Continuum escape fraction of faint galaxies at z~3.3 in the CANDELS/GOODS-North, EGS, and COSMOS fields with LBC
A. Grazian, E. Giallongo, D. Paris +41
The reionization of the Universe is one of the most important topics of present day astrophysical research. The most plausible candidates for the reionization process are star-form…
Characterization of star-forming dwarf galaxies at 0.1 0.9 in VUDS: Probing the low-mass end of the mass-metallicity relation
A. Calabrò, R. Amorín, A. Fontana +19
We present the discovery and spectrophotometric characterization of a large sample of 164 faint ( - mag) star-forming dwarf galaxies (SFDGs) at redshift $0.1…
Analogs of primeval galaxies two billion years after the Big Bang
Ricardo Amorín, A. Fontana, E. Pérez-Montero +30
Deep observations are revealing a growing number of young galaxies in the first billion year of cosmic time. Compared to typical galaxies at later times, they show more extreme emi…
