Low Surface-Brightness (LSB) galaxies are severely underrepresented in surveys used to define the local luminosity function (LF), but could it in principle be detected in deep surveys. To explore the possible contribution of such objects to…

Cosmological surface brightness dimming of the form $(1+z)^{-4}$ affects all sources. The strong dependence of surface brightness dimming on redshift z suggests the presence of a selection bias when searching for high-redshift galaxies,…

In Sedgwick et al. (2019) we introduced and utilised a method to combat surface brightness and mass biases in galaxy sample selection, using core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) as pointers towards their host galaxies, in order to: (i) search…

We examine the present-day total stellar-to-halo mass (SHM) ratio as a function of halo mass for a new sample of simulated field galaxies using fully cosmological, LCDM, high resolution SPH + N-Body simulations.These simulations include an…

A comparison between published field galaxy stellar mass functions (GSMFs) shows that the cosmic stellar mass density is in the range 4--8 per cent of the baryon density (assuming Omega_b = 0.045). There remain significant sources of…
