We present the first observational infrared luminosity function (IRLF) measurement in the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) based on a UV-selected galaxy sample with ALMA spectroscopic observations. Our analysis is based on the ALMA large program…

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…
