On the redshift cut-off for steep-spectrum radio sources
We use three samples (3CRR, 6CE and 6C*) selected at low radio frequency to constrain the cosmic evolution in the radio luminosity function (RLF) for the ‘most luminous’ steep-spectrum radio sources. Although intrinsically rare, such sources give the largest possible baseline in redshift for the complete flux-density-limited samples currently available. Using parametric models to describe the R...
متن کاملOn the redshift cut-off for flat-spectrum radio sources
We use data from the Parkes Half-Jansky Flat-Spectrum (PHJFS) sample (Drinkwater et al. 1997) to constrain the cosmic evolution in the co-moving space density ρ of radio sources in the top decade of the flat-spectrum radio luminosity function (RLF). A consistent picture for the high-redshift evolution is achieved using both simple parametric models, which are the first to allow for distribution...
متن کاملThe evolution of submillimetre galaxies: two populations and a redshift cut-off
We explore the epoch dependence of number density and star-formation rate for submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) found at 850μm. The study uses a sample of 38 SMG in the GOODS-N field, for which cross-waveband identifications have been obtained for 35/38 members together with redshift measurements or estimates. A maximumlikelihood analysis is employed, along with the ‘single-source-survey’ technique...
متن کاملThe LBDS Hercules sample of mJy radio sources at 1 . 4 GHz – II . Redshift distribution , radio luminosity function , and the high - redshift cut - off
A combination of spectroscopy and broadband photometric redshifts has been used to find the complete redshift distribution of the Hercules sample of millijansky radio sources. These data have been used to examine the evolution of the radio luminosity function (RLF) and its high-redshift cut-off. We report the results of recent spectroscopic observations of the Hercules sample, drawn from the 1....
متن کاملChemical Evolution of High - Redshift Radio Galaxies ⋆
We present new deep optical spectra of 9 high-z radio galaxies (HzRGs) at z > 2.7 obtained with FORS2 on VLT. These rest-frame ultraviolet spectra are used to infer the metallicity of the narrow-line regions (NLRs) in order to investigate the chemical evolution of galaxies in high-z universe. We focus mainly on the C iv/He ii and C iii]/C iv flux ratios that are sensitive to gas metallicity and...
