In this paper we present an attempt to estimate the redshift evolution of the molecular to neutral gas mass ratio within galaxies (at fixed stellar mass). For a sample of five nearby grand design spirals located on the Main Sequence (MS) of…

We investigate the star formation histories (SFHs) of high redshift (3 <~ z <~ 5) star-forming galaxies selected based on their rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) colors in the CANDELS/GOODS-S field. By comparing the results from the…

From the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 5 (DR5), we extract a sample of 4594 galaxies at redshifts 0.02<z<0.03, complete down to a stellar mass of M=10^10 Msol. We quantify their structure (Sersic index), morphology (Sersic…

We present new results on the cosmic star formation history in the SXDS-UDS field out to z=1.6. We compile narrow-band data from the Subaru Telescope and the Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) in conjunction with…

We study the evolution of star formation activity of galaxies at 0.5<z<3.5 as a function of stellar mass, using very deep NIR data taken with Multi-Object Infrared Camera and Spectrograph (MOIRCS) on the Subaru telescope in the GOODS-North…

A large sample of spectroscopically confirmed galaxies at 1.4<z<3.7, with complementary imaging in the near- and mid-IR from the ground and from Hubble and Spitzer, is used to infer the average star formation histories (SFHs) of typical…

In this paper, we use stacking analysis to trace the mass-growth, colour evolution, and structural evolution of present-day massive galaxies ($\log(M_{*}/M_{\odot})=11.5$) out to $z=5$. We utilize the exceptional depth and area of the…

Surveys with James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have discovered candidate galaxies in the first 400 Myr of cosmic time. Preliminary indications have suggested these candidate galaxies may be more massive and abundant than previously thought.…

High-resolution multi-wavelength photometry is crucial to explore the spatial distribution of star formation in galaxies and understand how these evolve. To this aim, in this paper we exploit the deep, multi-wavelength Hubble Space…

Using data from the mid-infrared to millimeter wavelengths for individual galaxies and for stacked ensembles at 0.5<z<2, we derive robust estimates of dust masses (Mdust) for main sequence (MS) galaxies, which obey a tight correlation…

A census of massive galaxies at redshift increasingly higher than $z\sim$1 may provide strong constraints on the history of mass assembly and of star formation. Here we report on the analysis of three galaxies selected in the Hubble Deep…

Spectroscopic + photometric redshifts, stellar mass estimates, and rest-frame colors from the 3D-HST survey are combined with structural parameter measurements from CANDELS imaging to determine the galaxy size-mass distribution over the…

We revisit the evolution of galaxy morphology in the COSMOS field over the redshift range $0.2\leq z \leq 1$, using a large and complete sample of 33,605 galaxies with a stellar mass of log($M_{\ast}$/M$_{\odot} )>9.5$ with significantly…

We present a comprehensive analysis of the stellar population properties (age, metallicity and the alpha-element enhancement [E/Fe]) and morphologies of red-sequence galaxies in 24 clusters and groups from z~0.75 to z~0.45. The dataset,…

We present the broad-band UV through mid-infrared spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of a sample of 72 spectroscopically-confirmed star-forming galaxies at z=2.30+/-0.3. Located in a 72 arcmin-squared field centered on the bright…

We have studied the evolution of high redshift quiescent galaxies over an effective area of ~1.7 deg^2 in the COSMOS field. Galaxies have been divided according to their star-formation activity and the evolution of the different populations…

We present our results on the structure and activity of massive galaxies at z=1-3 using one of the largest (166 with M_star>=5e10 M_sun) and most diverse samples of massive galaxies derived from the GOODS-NICMOS survey: (1) Sersic fits to…
