The spectral properties of more than 400 CFRS galaxies and their changes over the redshift interval 0 - 1.3 are investigated. Emission line intensities and equivalent widths for accessible lines have been measured, as well as continuum…

We measure the two-point angular correlation function of a sample of 4,289,223 galaxies with r < 19.4 mag from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey as a function of photometric redshift, absolute magnitude and colour down to M_r - 5log h = -14 mag.…

We use photometric redshifts to analyse the effect of local environment on galaxy colours at redshifts z < 0.63 in the SDSS data release 6. We construct mock SDSS-DR6 catalogues using semi-analytic galaxies to study possible systematic…

We present aperture-matched PSF-corrected BVi'z'JH photometry and Bayesian photometric redshifts (BPZ) for objects detected in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (UDF), 8,042 of which are detected at the 10-sigma level (e.g., i'<29.01 or…

Photometric redshifts have been calculated for the Hubble Deep Fields. The redshift distributions of the fields differ; there is a large excess of galaxies in the HDF-North in the redshift range 0.4<z<1.2. The difference is consistent with…

Measuring environment for large numbers of distant galaxies is still an open problem, for which we need galaxy positions and redshifts. Photometric redshifts are more easily available for large numbers of galaxies, but at the price of…
