We present a star-formation rate calibration based on optical data that is consistent with average observed rates in both the red and blue galaxy populations at z~1. The motivation for this study is to calculate SFRs for DEEP2 Redshift…

We study the star formation rate (SFR) as a function of environment for UV selected Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) at redshift three. From deep UBVI KPNO 4-m/MOSAIC images, covering a total of 0.90 deg^2, we select 334 LBGs in slices 100 Mpc…

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…

We present a study to determine how star formation contributes to galaxy growth since z=1.5 over five decades in galaxy stellar mass. We investigate the specific star formation rate (SSFR; star formation rate [SFR] per unit galaxy stellar…

We study the star formation and the mass assembly process of 0.3<=z<2.5 galaxies using their IR emission from MIPS 24um band. We used an updated version of the GOODS-MUSIC catalog, extended by the addition of mid-IR fluxes. We compared two…

We present an analysis of the star formation rate in galaxies between 0.7<z<1.8 using Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrograph (NICMOS) grism spectral observations. We detect 163 galaxies in an area of ~4.4 square arcminutes, 37…

Global Stellar Formation Rates or SFRs are crucial to constrain theories of galaxy formation and evolution. SFR's are usually estimated via spectroscopic observations which require too much previous telescope time and therefore cannot match…

We explore the use of simple star-formation rate (SFR) indicators (such as may be used in high-redshift galaxy surveys) in the local Universe using [OII], Ha, and u-band luminosities from the deeper 275 deg^2 Stripe 82 subsample of the…

We measure the evolution of the specific star formation rate (sSFR = SFR / Mstellar) between redshift 4 and 6 to investigate the previous reports of "constant" sSFR at z>2. We obtain photometry on a large sample of galaxies at z~4-6 located…
