We present the $H_{160}$ morphological catalogs for the COSMOS-DASH survey, the largest area near-IR survey using HST-WFC3 to date. Utilizing the "Drift And SHift" observing technique for HST-WFC3 imaging, the COSMOS-DASH survey imaged…

We used 1627 faint (15.5< R<23) stars in five fields of the Calar Alto Deep Imaging Survey (CADIS) to estimate the structure parameters of the Galaxy. The results were derived by applying two complementary methods: first by fitting the…

We introduce a new galaxy image decomposition tool, GALPHAT (GALaxy PHotometric ATtributes), to provide full posterior probability distributions and reliable confidence intervals for all model parameters. GALPHAT is designed to yield a high…

We present a catalogue of structural parameters for 8814 galaxies in the 25 fields of the HST/ACS Coma Treasury Survey. Parameters from S\'ersic fits to the two-dimensional surface brightness distributions are given for all galaxies from…

The quantitative morphological classification of distant galaxies is essential to the understanding of the evolution of galaxies over the history of the Universe. This paper presents Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 F606W and F814W photometric…

The UltraViolet imaging of the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey Fields (UVCANDELS) program provides deep HST F275W and F435W imaging over four CANDELS fields (GOODS-N, GOODS-S, COSMOS, and EGS). We combine this…

Taking advantage of HST CANDELS data, we analyze the lowest redshift (z<0.5) massive galaxies in order to disentangle their structural constituents and study possible faint non-axis-symmetric features. Due to the excellent HST spatial…

It remains challenging to detect the low surface brightness structures of faint high-z galaxies, which is key to understanding the structural evolution of galaxies. The technique of image stacking allows us to measure the averaged light…

We present a targeted follow-up Hubble Space Telescope WFC3 F160W imaging study of very massive galaxies $(\log(M_{\rm{star}}/M_{\odot})> 11.2)$ selected from a combination of ground-based near-infrared galaxy surveys (UltraVISTA, NMBS-II,…

We present F110W (~J) and F160W (~H) observations of ten submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope's (HST's) NICMOS camera. Our targets have optical redshifts in the range 2.20<z<2.81 confirmed by millimeter CO…

We present a multi-wavelength photometric catalog in the COSMOS field as part of the observations by the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS). The catalog is based on Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field…

With current and upcoming experiments such as WFIRST, Euclid and LSST, we can observe up to billions of galaxies. While such surveys cannot obtain spectra for all observed galaxies, they produce galaxy magnitudes in color filters. This data…

We have undertaken a Near-IR Weak Lensing (NIRWL) analysis of the wide-field CANDELS HST/WFC3-IR F160W observations. With the Gaia proper-motion-corrected catalog as an astrometric reference, we updated the astrometry of the five CANDELS…

As a result of a systematic NIR H-band (1.65 micron) imaging survey of normal galaxies in the local universe, we are able to measure in a highly homogeneous way photometric and structural properties for a sample of 1143 galaxies. We base…
