We present the rest-frame Ultra-Violet (UV) galaxy luminosity function (LF) and luminosity density (LD) measurements in the far-UV (150 nm) wavelength, in the redshift range z = 0.6 - 1.2. The UV LF is derived using XMM-Newton Optical…

We use very deep (R_lim=27) UGRI imaging to study the evolution of the faint end of the UV-selected galaxy luminosity function from z~4 to z~2. We find that the number of sub-L* galaxies increases from z~4 to z~3 while the number of bright…

We use deep Swift UV/Optical Telescope (UVOT) near-ultraviolet (1600A to 4000A) imaging of the Chandra Deep Field South to measure the rest-frame far-UV (FUV; 1500A) luminosity function (LF) in four redshift bins between z=0.2 and 1.2. Our…

We employ the Delphi semi-analytical model to study the impact of black hole growth on high-redshift galaxies, both in terms of the observed UV luminosity and of the star formation rate. To do this, firstly, we assess the contribution of…

We derive the Ultra-Violet (UV) luminosity function (LF) of star-forming galaxies in the redshift range $z = 0.6 - 1.2$, in the rest-frame far-UV ($1500$ \r{A}) wavelength. For this work, we are in particular interested in the bright end of…

We construct rest-frame luminosity functions at 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, 8 and 24 microns over the redshift range 0<z<2 for galaxies and 0<z<4 for optical QSOs, using optical and infrared data from the Spitzer Wide-area InfraRed Extragalactic survey.…

We use state-of-the-art simulations to explore the physical evolution of galaxies in the first billion years of cosmic time. First, we demonstrate that our model reproduces the basic statistical properties of the observed Lyman-break galaxy…
