Quasar Luminosity Function at z = 7 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We present the quasar luminosity function (LF) at z = 7, measured with 35 spectroscopically confirmed quasars at 6.55 < z < 7.15. The sample of 22 quasars from the Subaru High- z Exploration of Low-Luminosity Quasars (SHELLQs) project, combined with 13 ...

On the normalized FRB luminosity function [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
Thirty-three fast radio bursts (FRBs) had been detected by March 2018. Although the sample size is still limited, meaningful statistical studies can already be carried out. The normalised luminosity function places important constraints on the intrinsic power output, sheds light on the origin(s) of FRBs, and can guide future observations. In this paper,

Characterizing the luminosity components of luminous infrared galaxies in multi-wavelength from the X-ray to the far-infrared [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
We characterize luminosity components of Ultra/Luminous Infrared Galaxies (U/LIRGs) in multi-wavelength from the X-ray to far-infrared. A set of 63 AGN U/LIRGs was selected where these galaxies are powered by a central active galactic nucleus (AGN ...

The white dwarf luminosity function [PDF]

open access: yesNew Astronomy Reviews, 2016
White dwarfs are the final remnants of low- and intermediate-mass stars. Their evolution is essentially a cooling process that lasts for $\sim 10$ Gyr. Their observed properties provide information about the history of the Galaxy, its dark matter content and a host of other interesting astrophysical problems.

The CNOC2 Field Galaxy Luminosity Function. I. A Description of Luminosity Function Evolution [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Astrophysical Journal, 1999
We examine the evolution of the galaxy luminosity function (LF) using a sample of over 2000 galaxies, with 0.12 < z < 0.55 and 17.0 < Rc < 21.5, drawn from the Canadian Network for Observational Cosmology Field Galaxy Redshift Survey (CNOC2), at present the largest such sample at intermediate redshifts. We use UBVRcIc photometry to classify

The evolution of the galaxy UV luminosity function at redshifts z ≃ 8 – 15 from deep JWST and ground-based near-infrared imaging [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022
We reduce and analyse the available JWST ERO and ERS NIRCam imaging (SMACS0723, GLASS, CEERS) in combination with the latest deep ground-based near-infrared imaging in the COSMOS field (provided by UltraVISTA DR5) to produce a new measurement of the ...

The Evolution of the Lyman-alpha Luminosity Function during Reionization [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2021
The time frame in which hydrogen reionization occurred is highly uncertain, but can be constrained by observations of Lyman-alpha (Lyα) emission from distant sources.

The bolometric quasar luminosity function at z = 0–7 [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
In this paper, we provide updated constraints on the bolometric quasar luminosity function (QLF) from z = 0 to z = 7. The constraints are based on an observational compilation that includes observations in the rest-frame IR, B band, UV, soft, and hard ...

On the FRB luminosity function – – II. Event rate density [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
The luminosity function of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs), defined as the event rate per unit cosmic co-moving volume per unit luminosity, may help to reveal the possible origins of FRBs and design the optimal searching strategy. With the Bayesian modelling,
