The evolution of the B-band galaxy luminosity function is measured using a sample of more than 11,000 galaxies with spectroscopic redshifts from the DEEP2 Redshift Survey. The rest-frame M_B versus U-B color-magnitude diagram of DEEP2…
In the six billion years between redshifts z=1 and z=0.1, galaxies change due to the aging of their stellar populations, the formation of new stars, and mergers with other galaxies. Here I explore the relative importance of these various…
We describe the design and data sample from the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey, the densest and largest precision-redshift survey of galaxies at z ~ 1 completed to date. The survey has conducted a comprehensive census of massive galaxies,…
We took advantage of the wealth of information provided by the first ~10000 galaxies of the zCOSMOS-bright survey and its group catalogue to study the complex interplay between group environment and galaxy properties. The classical…
A sample of ~20,000 galaxies covering 0.76 deg2 were observed with the CFHT-UH8K up to V<23.5 and I<22.5. The angular correlation analysis of the red selected sample (V-I>1.4) shows a stronger amplitude than the blue selected sample at all…
The evolution of galaxies in groups may have important implications for the evolution of the star formation history of the universe, since many processes which operate in groups may suppress star formation and the fraction of galaxies in…
The DEEP2 and COMBO-17 surveys are used to study the evolution of the luminosity function of red and blue galaxies to $z \sim 1$. Schechter function fits show that, since $z = 1$, $M^*_B$ dims by $\sim$ 1.3 mag per unit redshift for both…
Hierarchical models of galaxy formation predict that the properties of a dark matter halo depend on the large-scale environment surrounding the halo. As a result of this correlation, we expect massive haloes to be present in larger number…
We have explored the redshift evolution of the luminosity function of red and blue galaxies up to $z=3.5$. This was possible joining a deep I band composite galaxy sample, which includes the spectroscopic K20 sample and the HDFs samples,…
Our study is meant to extend our knowledge of the galaxy color and luminosity segregation in velocity space (VCS and VLS, resp.), to clusters at intermediate and high redshift. Our sample is a collection of 41 clusters in the 0.4<~z<~1.5…
We present deep color profiles for a sample of 415 disk galaxies within the redshift range 0.1<z<=1.1, and contained in HST-ACS imaging of the GOODS-South field (Giavalisco et al. 2004). For each galaxy, passband combinations are chosen to…
We report the discovery of a population of nearby, blue early-type galaxies with high star formation rates (0.5 < SFR < 50 Msun/yr). They are identified by their visual morphology as provided by Galaxy Zoo for SDSS DR6 and their u-r colour.…
In this paper we discuss the mix of star-forming and passive galaxies up to z~2, based on the first epoch VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS) data.In agreement with previous works we find that the galaxy rest-frame color distribution follows a…
We present the clustering of DEEP2 galaxies at 0.7<z<1.4 around quasars identified using both the SDSS and DEEP2 surveys. We measure the two-point cross-correlation of a sample of 36 optically-selected, spectroscopically-identified quasars…
The abundances of groups and clusters of galaxies are expected to have changed substantially since high redshift, with the strength of this evolution dependent upon fundamental cosmological parameters. Upcoming large redshift surveys of…
(Abridged) We present new optical and near-infrared imaging for a sample of 98 spectroscopically-selected galaxy groups at 0.25<z<0.55. We measure accurate colours for group members and the surrounding field population, statistically…
(abridged) The systematic variation of galaxy colors and types with clustering environment could either be the result of local conditions at formation or subsequent environmental effects as larger scale structures draw together galaxies…
We present spectroscopic confirmation of nine moderate redshift galaxy groups and poor clusters selected from the ROSAT Deep Cluster Survey. The groups span the redshift range z=0.23-0.59 and have between 4 and 20 confirmed members. The…
We study the mean environment of galaxies in the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey as a function of rest-frame color, luminosity, and [OII] equivalent width. The local galaxy overdensity for >14,000 galaxies at 0.75 < z < 1.35 is estimated using…
We present DEEP2 galaxy clustering measurements at z~1 as a function of stellar mass, star formation rate (SFR), and specific SFR (sSFR). We find a strong positive correlation between stellar mass and clustering amplitude on 1-10 h^-1 Mpc…
