High-redshift galaxy populations

Nature, 2006
We now see many galaxies as they were only 800 million years after the Big Bang, and that limit may soon be exceeded when wide-field infrared detectors are widely available. Multi-wavelength studies show that there was relatively little star formation at very early times and that star formation was at its maximum at about half the age of the Universe ...

High Redshift Galaxies

1997
That we are in an evolving Cosmo where each single object, and the Universe as a whole, evolve in time has been accepted since a long time. The great excitement in current cosmology, as mentioned also by J. Peebles sometime before 1983, is that we have opened an observational and theoretical window in the world of mathematical models and we are now ...

High-Redshift Galaxies

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2005
Mapping the history of star formation requires combining observations at many wavelengths. The most dramatic episodes of star formation occurred in high-redshift (z > 1) galaxies obscured by dust. These galaxies can be seen at submillimeter wavelengths.

High Redshift Radio Galaxies

Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1993
High redshift galaxies that host powerful radio sources are examined. An overview is presented of the content of radio surveys: 3CR and 3CRR, 4C and 4C/USS, B2/1 Jy, MG, MRC/1Jy, Parkes/PSR, B3, and ESO Key-Project. Narrow-line radio galaxies in the visible and UV, the source of ionization and excitation of the emission lines, emission-line ...

High-Redshift Galaxies

1992
A consistent picture of large-scale structure appears to be emerging from different types of observations including the spatial distribution of galaxies, clusters of galaxies, narrow pencil-beam surveys, and quasars. I describe these observations below. A network of large-scale superclusters, up to ~ 150 Mpc in scale, is suggested.

Cluster Galaxies at High Redshift [PDF]

open access: possible, 1988
Modern CCD instrumentation has made it possible to obtain photometric and spectroscopic data on normal galaxies in clusters at redshifts up to nearly unity. In this paper we discuss a survey for such clusters and preliminary spectroscopic results for galaxies in a sample of 7 clusters near redshift 0.5, and another at z=0.75.

The High Redshift 3CR Radio Galaxies: CD Galaxies in High Redshift Clusters

1998
The old stellar populations of the 3CR radio galaxies at redshifts z ∼ 1 have been investigated using the HST and UKIRT. The radial intensity profiles of the galaxies are well matched out to radii τ ∼ 35kpc by de Vaucouleurs’ law with no requirement for an additional point source in all but two cases (3C22 and 3C41).

A Database of Galaxies at High Redshifts

2002
In the past couple of years the amount of the data concerning the distant universe has increased significantly. It is the right time to start collecting what we have learned from these data in order to draw a picture of galaxy evolution. We have started building a database which puts together relevant information regarding high-z galaxies (z>1 ...

Are High Redshift Galaxies Interacting?

1990
I am uncomfortable. I feel in the position of an agnostic who has been asked to praise God close to the beginning of a religious revival meeting. Unfortunately, as far as mergers at high redshifts is concerned, I cannot bring myself to do this. Instead, I propose to present you with evidence that peculiar phenomena are occurring in the most distant ...
