We present the results of a 42-orbit HST/WFC3 survey of the rest-frame optical morphologies of star forming galaxies with spectroscopic redshifts in the range z=1.5-3.6. The survey consists of 42 orbits of F160W imaging covering ~65…

We use ultradeep HST WFC3/IR imaging of the HUDF to investigate the rest-frame optical morphologies of a mass-selected sample of galaxies at z~2. We find a large variety of galaxy morphologies, ranging from large, blue, disk-like galaxies…

We present near-IR images, obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and the WFC3/IR camera, of six passive and massive galaxies at redshift 1.3<z<2.4 (SSFR<10^{-2} Gyr^{-1}; stellar mass M~10^{11} M_{sun}), selected from the Great…

We present HST images of star-forming galaxies at redshifts z>3. These galaxies have been color selected for having a Lyman discontinuity in the otherwise flat (in f_\nu units) UV spectra of unreddened star formation. The spectroscopic…

We use rest frame ultraviolet (UV), B, and V band images of five nearby (z<0.02) interacting and/or starbursting galaxies to simulate deep HST observations of peculiar galaxies at medium to high redshifts. In particular, we simulate Hubble…

Thanks to decades of observations using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), the structure of galaxies at redshift $z>2$ has been widely studied in the rest-frame ultraviolet regime, which traces recent star formation from young stellar…

We have examined in detail the morphologies of seven z~1.5 passively evolving luminous red galaxies using high resolution HST NICMOS and ACS imaging data. Almost all of these galaxies appear to be relaxed systems, with smooth morphologies…

We examine in this paper a stellar mass selected sample of galaxies at 1 < z < 3 within the Hubble Ultra Deep Field, utilising WFC3 imaging to study the rest-frame optical morphological distribution of galaxies at this epoch. We measure how…

We have studied the evolution in the morphologies, sizes, stellar-masses, colors, and internal color dispersion (ICD) of galaxies at z=1 and 2.3, using a near-IR, flux-limited catalog for the HDF-N. At z=1 most luminous galaxies have…

We report on the evolution of the number density and size of early-type galaxies from z~2 to z~0. We select a sample of 563 massive (M>10^{10} Msun), passively evolving (SSFR<10^{-2} Gyr^{-1}) and morphologically spheroidal galaxies at…

We report the discovery of a substantial population of star--forming galaxies at $3.0 \simlt z \simlt 3.5$. These galaxies have been selected using color criteria sensitive to the presence of a Lyman continuum break superposed on an…

Euclid, WFIRST, and HETDEX will make emission-line selected galaxies the largest observed constituent in the $z > 1$ universe. However, we only have a limited understanding of the physical properties of galaxies selected via their…

We have exploited the HST CANDELS WFC3/IR imaging to study the properties of (sub-)mm galaxies in GOODS-South. After using the deep radio and Spitzer imaging to identify galaxy counterparts for the (sub-)mm sources, we have used the new…

We compare the rest-frame ultraviolet and rest-frame optical morphologies of 2 < z < 3 star-forming galaxies in the GOODS-S field using Hubble Space Telescope WFC3 and ACS images from the CANDELS, GOODS, and ERS programs. We show that the…

We discuss the state of the assembly of the Hubble Sequence in the mix of bright galaxies at redshift 1.4< z \le 2.5 with a large sample of 1,671 galaxies down to H_{AB}~26, selected from the HST/ACS and WFC3 images of the GOODS--South…

Using deep near-infrared imaging of the Hubble Deep Field South with ISAAC on the Very Large Telescope we find 6 large disk-like galaxies at redshifts z = 1.4-3.0. The galaxies, selected in K_s (2.2 micron), are regular and surprisingly…

We present the results of a systematic search for galaxies in the redshift range z = 6 - 9, within the new, deep, near-infrared imaging of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field provided by the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) on HST. We have performed full…

We present a comprehensive analysis of the evolution of the morphological and structural properties of a large sample of galaxies at z=3-9 using early JWST CEERS NIRCam observations. Our sample consists of 850 galaxies at z>3 detected in…

We apply a new approach to quantifying galaxy morphology and identifying galaxy mergers to the rest-frame far-ultraviolet images of 82 z ~ 4 Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) and 55 1.2 < z < 1.8 emission-line galaxies in the GOODS and Ultra Deep…
