In this article we investigate the morphology and stellar populations of high-redshift galaxies through multi-waveband HST imaging and ground-based spatially-resolved spectroscopy. We study the redshift evolution of galaxy morphology in the…
We examined the morphology-density relations for galaxy samples selected by luminosity and by mass in each of five massive X-ray clusters from z=0.023 to 0.83 for 674 spectroscopically-confirmed members. Rest-frame optical colors and visual…
A sample of very high resolution cosmological disk galaxy simulations is used to investigate the evolution of galaxy disk sizes back to redshift 1 within the Lambda CDM cosmology. Artificial images in the rest frame B band are generated,…
We used ultraviolet (200 nm) images of the local spiral galaxies M33, M51, M81, M100, M101 to compute morphological parameters of galactic disks at this wavelength : half-light radius $r_{hl}$, surface brightness distributions, asymmetries…
We constrain the evolution of the galaxy mass and luminosity functions from the analysis of (public) multi-wavelength data in the Chandra Deep Field South (CDFS) area, obtained from the GOODS and other projects, and including very deep…

We present a redshift survey of 124 galaxies, from an imaging $K$-band survey complete to $K\simeq 17.3$. The optical-to-infrared colours are consistent with the range expected from synthetic galaxy spectra, although there are some cases of…
Adaptive Optics observations have dramatically improved the quality and versatility of high angular resolution measurements of the center of our Galaxy. In this paper, we quantify the quality of our Adaptive Optics observations and report…
The morphologies of disk galaxies begin to deviate systematically from those of nearby galaxies at surprisingly low redshifts, possibly as low as z=0.3. This corresponds to a time ~3.5 Gyr in the past, which is only one quarter of the…
The evolution of the X-ray luminosity function of clusters of galaxies has been measured to z=0.9 using over 150 X-ray selected clusters discovered in the WARPS survey. We find no evidence for evolution of the luminosity function at any…
At $z\sim2$, star-formation activity is thought to be high even in high-density environments such as galaxy clusters and proto-clusters. One of the critical but outstanding issues is if structural growth of star-forming galaxies can differ…
We present results of surveys for high redshift field galaxies selected by their having produced detectable absorption in the spectra of background QSOs. Such surveys, in essence selected by gas cross-section rather than by flux density,…
We measure the luminosity function of morphologically selected E/S0 galaxies from z=0.5 to z=1.0 using deep high resolution Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) imaging data. Our data extend 2 magnitudes deeper than the Deep Groth Strip Survey…
The increased incidence of morphologically peculiar galaxies at faint magnitudes in the optical could be attributable either to "morphological k-corrections" (the change in appearance when viewing high-z objects at shorter rest-frame…

Previous observational studies of the infrared (IR)-radio relation out to high redshift employed any detectable star forming systems at a given redshift within the restricted area of cosmological survey fields. Consequently, the evolution…
