We introduce a minimal two-parameter formulation of the dark energy (DE) density evolution normalized to its present-day value, $f_{\rm DE}(z) \equiv \rho_{\rm DE}(z)/\rho_{\rm DE,0}$, in terms of $f_p\equiv f_{\rm DE}(z_p)$ and the DE…

[Abridged] We analyse the dark matter (DM) halo properties of 127 0.3<z<1.5 star-forming galaxies (SFGs) down to low stellar masses (8<log(Mstar/Msun)<11), using data from the MUSE Hubble Ultra Deep Field Survey and photometry from HST and…
