The evolving slope of the stellar mass function at 0.6 <= z < 4.5 from deep WFC3 data
P. Santini, A. Fontana, A. Grazian +12
We used Early Release Science (ERS) observations taken with the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) in the GOODS-S field to study the galaxy stellar mass function (GSMF) at 0.6<=z<4.5. Deep…
The blue UV slopes of z~4 Lyman break galaxies: implications for the corrected star formation rate density
M. Castellano, A. Fontana, A. Grazian +13
We plan to analyse dust extinction in Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) by introducing a new and more reliable approach to their selection and to the characterization of their distributi…
Spectroscopic confirmation of z~7 LBGs: probing the earliest galaxies and the epoch of reionization
L. Pentericci, A. Fontana, E. Vanzella +11
We present the final results from our ultra-deep spectroscopic campaign with FORS2 at the ESO/VLT for the confirmation of z~7 "z--band dropout" candidates selected from our VLT/Haw…
A low escape fraction of ionizing photons of L>L* Lyman break galaxies at z=3.3
K. Boutsia, A. Grazian, E. Giallongo +12
We present an upper limit for the relative escape fraction (f_{esc}^{rel}) of ionizing radiation at z~3.3 using a sample of 11 Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) with deep imaging in the…
