We use deep ground-based imaging in the near-IR to search for counterparts to the luminous submm sources in the catalog of Smail et al (1998). For the majority of the submm sources the near-IR imaging supports the counterparts originally…

The massive cluster of galaxies Abell 2219 (z = 0.228) was observed at 14.3 $\mu$m with the Infrared Space Observatory and results were published by Barvainis et al. (1999). These observations have been reanalyzed using a method…

We have discovered an excess of extremely red objects (EROs) surrounding the z=2.69 quasar QSO 1213-0017 (UM 485). Optical/IR colors for these galaxies are consistent with z=1-2 ellipticals, and there are at least 5 galaxies with…

We report on the discovery of three bright, strongly-lensed objects behind Abell 1703 and CL0024+16 from a dropout search over 25 square arcminutes of deep NICMOS data, with deep ACS optical coverage. They are undetected in the deep ACS…

Using U'- through Ks-band imaging data in the GOODS-South field, we construct a large, complete sample of 275 ``extremely red objects'' (EROs; K_s<22.0, R-K_s>3.35; AB), all with deep HST/ACS imaging in B_435, V_606, i_775, and z_850, and…

We have analysed a sample of 25 extremely red H-[4.5]>4 galaxies, selected using 4.5 micron data from the Spitzer SEDS survey and deep H-band data from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) CANDELS survey, over ~180 square arcmin of the UKIDSS…

Understanding the nature of Extremely Red Objects [EROs; (I-K)>=4] is one of the most challenging issues in observational cosmology. Here we report on the X-ray constraints provided by the 2 Ms Chandra Deep Field-North Survey (CDF-N). X-ray…

We estimate the star-formation rates and the stellar masses of the Extremely Red objects (EROs) detected in a 180arcmin2 Ks-band survey (Ks~20mag). This sample is complemented by sensitive 1.4GHz radio observations (12micro-Jy; 1sigma rms)…
