Star Forming Galaxies at z > 5
We present recent progress in searching for galaxies at redshift from z ≃ 5 to z ≃ 10. Wide-field and senstive surveys with 8m class telescopes have been providing more than several hundreds of star forming galaxies at z ≃ 5 – 7 that are probed in the optical window. These galaxies are used to study the early cosmic star formation activity as well as the early structure formation in the univers...
متن کاملThe Rest - Frame Fuv Morphologies of Star - Forming Galaxies at Z ∼ 1 . 5 and Z ∼ 4
We apply a new approach to quantifying galaxy morphology and identifying galaxy mergers to the rest-frame far-ultraviolet images of 82 z ∼ 4 Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) and 55 1.2 < z < 1.8 emission-line galaxies in the GOODS and Ultra Deep Fields. We compare the distributions of the Gini coefficient (G), second-order moment of the brightest 20% of galaxy light (M20), and concentration (C) for ...
متن کاملH α emitting galaxies and the star formation rate density at z ≃ 0 . 24
We have carried out a survey searching for Hα emitting galaxies at z≃0.24 using a narrow band filter tuned with the redshifted line. The total sky area covered was 0.19 square degrees within the redshift range 0.228 to 0.255 in a set of four fields in the ELAIS-N1 zone. This corresponds to a volume of 9.8·10 Mpc and a lookback time of 3.6 Gyr when H0=50km s −1 Mpc and q0=0.5 are assumed. A tota...
متن کاملTHE HUBBLE SEQUENCE BEYOND z = 2 FOR MASSIVE GALAXIES: CONTRASTING LARGE STAR-FORMING AND COMPACT QUIESCENT GALAXIES
We present HST NIC2 morphologies of a spectroscopic sample of massive galaxies at z ∼ 2.3, by extending our sample of nine compact quiescent galaxies (re ∼ 0.9 kpc) with ten massive emissionline galaxies. The emission-line galaxies are classified by the nature of their ionized emission; there are six star-forming galaxies and four galaxies hosting an active galactic nucleus (AGN). The starformi...
متن کاملThe Stellar Mass Density and Specific Star Formation Rates of the Universe at Z ∼ 7
We use a robust sample of 11 z ∼ 7 galaxies (z850-dropouts) to estimate the stellar mass density of the universe when it was only ∼750 Myr old. We combine the very deep optical to near-Infrared photometry from the HST ACS and NICMOS cameras with mid-Infrared Spitzer IRAC imaging available through the GOODS program. After carefully removing the flux from contaminating foreground sources we have ...
