We present the stellar mass functions (SMF) and mass densities of galaxies, and their spheroid and disk components in the local (z~0.1) universe over the range 8.9 <= log(M/M_solar) <= 12 from spheroid+disk decompositions and corresponding…

We present and discuss optical measurements of the faint end of the galaxy luminosity function down to M_R = -10 in five different local environments of varying galaxy density and morphological content. The environments we studied, in order…

Using the MOPED algorithm we determine non-parametrically the Stellar Mass Function of 96,545 galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey data release one. By using the reconstructed spectrum due to starlight we can eliminate contamination…

We present the optical luminosity functions (LFs) of galaxies for the CLASH-VLT cluster MACS J1206.2-0847 at z=0.439, based on HST and SUBARU data, including ~600 spectroscopically confirmed member galaxies. The LFs on the wide SUBARU FoV…

We examine a sample of low redshift (10 < d < 150 Mpc) galaxies including galaxies with r-band absolute magnitudes as faint as -12.5 (for h=1), selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 2 (SDSS). The sample is unique in…

We present the near-infrared (Ks-band) luminosity function of galaxies in two z~1 cluster candidates, 3C336 and Q1335+28. A third cluster, 3C289, was observed but found to be contaminated by a foreground system. Our wide field imaging data…

Luminosity Functions have been obtained for very faint dwarf galaxies in the cores of four rich clusters of galaxies (Abell 2052, 2107, 2199 and 2666). It is found that the luminosity function of dwarf galaxies rises very steeply in these…

A new sample of stars, representative of the solar neighbourhood luminosity function, is constructed from the Hipparcos catalogue and the Fifth Catalogue of Nearby Stars. We have cross-matched to sources in the 2MASS catalogue so that for…

We study the luminosity function of galaxies in Hickson groups using our recent redshift survey of galaxies in and around 17 of these groups. We find that the galaxies in these regions have a luminosity function with M* = -19.5 + 5 log h,…

A basic assumption in current halo occupation model is that the properties of a galaxy depend only on the mass of its dark matter halo. An important consequence of this is that the segregation of the galaxy population by large-scale…

We present deep two-colour photometry of two rich clusters at z=0.18, A665 and A1689. We use these data to construct number counts as a function of magnitude in the two fields. By combining these counts with similar observations from a…

We study the evolution of the K-band luminosity function (LF) and the Halo Occupation Distribution (HOD) using Subaru observations of 15 X-ray clusters at z=0.8-1.5 and compare the results with mock clusters (0<z<1.3) extracted from the…

We measure the rest-frame B-band luminosity function of red-sequence galaxies (RSLF) of five intermediate-redshift (0.5 < z < 0.9), high-mass (sigma > 950 km/s) clusters. Cluster galaxies are identified through photometric redshifts based…
