Using HST imaging of CL1358+62 (z=0.33) structural parameters are derived for 53 cluster members. We fit integrated r^{1/4}-laws to the integrated S.B. profiles, and fit two-dimensional r^{1/4}-law model galaxies to the images directly. The…
We report small-scale clustering measurements from the PRIMUS spectroscopic redshift survey as a function of color and luminosity. We measure the real-space cross-correlations between 62,106 primary galaxies with PRIMUS redshifts and a…
We investigate colors and mass-to-light ratios ($M/L$s) of the bulges and disks for 28 nearby spiral galaxies with various morphological types of Sab to Scd, using images in optical and near-infrared ($V$, $I$, and $J$) bands and published…
When investigating the sizes of galaxies it is standard practice to use the half-light radius, $r_{50}$. Here we explore the effects of the size definition on the distribution of galaxies in the size -- stellar mass plane. Specifically, we…
The size-luminosity relation of early-type Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs), R_e ~ L^0.88, is steeper than that for the bulk of the early-type galaxy population, for which R_e ~ L^0.68. In addition, although BCGs are hardly offset from the…
We present the first weak-lensing-based scaling relation between galaxy cluster mass, M_wl, and integrated Compton parameter Y_sph. Observations of 18 galaxy clusters at z~0.2 were obtained with the Subaru 8.2-m telescope and the…
We use an 18' x 9' mosaic of ACS images covering the entire large-scale structure around the X-ray luminous cluster MACSJ0717.5 (z=0.545) to study the morphology of galaxies at the cluster redshift. We find the global fraction of…
Keck spectroscopy and Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 imaging over a 1.5x1.5 Mpc field of CL1358+62 at z=0.33 are used to study the Fundamental Plane of galaxies based on a new, large sample of 53 galaxies. First, we have constructed the…
Using $JWST$/NIRCam data over a 0.28 deg$^{2}$ area from COSMOS-Web survey, together with $HST$/ACS data, we investigate early-type fraction of massive galaxies with $M_{star}>10^{10.5}M_{\odot}$ at $0.2<z<2.0$, and explore the formation of…
By using the SDSS multicolor photometry and lens modeling, we study stellar mass properties and the luminous and dark matter composition of the 57 early-type lens galaxies analyzed by the SLACS Survey. We fit the lens SEDs composed of ugriz…
New surface brightness profiles from 26 early-type galaxies with partially depleted cores have been extracted from the full radial extent of HST images, giving us a total sample of 31 such core-Sersic galaxies. We have carefully quantified…
The scaling relation between stellar mass ($M_{*}$) and physical effective radius ($r_{e}$) has been well-studied using wide spectroscopic surveys. However, these surveys suffer from severe surface brightness incompleteness in the dwarf…
We present the intrinsic and observed sizes of galaxies at $z\geq5$ in the First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations (FLARES). We employ the large effective volume of FLARES to produce a sizeable sample of high redshift galaxies with…
We carry out a systematic investigation of the total mass density profile of massive (Mstar~3e11 Msun) early-type galaxies and its dependence on redshift, specifically in the range 0<z<1. We start from a large sample of SDSS early-type…
(Abridged) Using data from the 2dFGRS we compute the conditional luminosity functions (CLFs) of early- and late-type galaxies. These functions give the average number of galaxies with luminosity L that reside in a halo of mass M, and are a…
We investigate the evolution in the distribution of surface brightness, as a function of size, for elliptical and S0 galaxies in the two clusters RDCS J1252.9-2927, z=1.237 and RX J0152.7-1357, z=0.837. We use multi-color imaging with the…
We study the morphological content of a large sample of high-redshift clusters to determine its dependence on cluster mass and redshift. Quantitative morphologies are based on bulge+disk decompositions of cluster and field galaxies on deep…
We measure the spatial clustering of galaxies as a function of their morphological type at z~0.8, for the first time in a deep redshift survey with full morphological information. This is obtained by combining high-resolution HST imaging…
In this work, we investigate whether the location of galaxies within the large-scale structures (LSS) of the Universe affects their stellar mass ($M_\star$) and morphology. To this end, we attempt to disentangle the effects of local and…
We exploit recent constraints on the ages and metallicities of early-type galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to gain new insight into the physical origin of two fundamental relations obeyed by these galaxies: the…
