We present the first results from a study of the radio continuum properties of galaxies in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey, based on thirty 2dF fields covering a total area of about 100 square degrees. About 1.5% of galaxies with b(J) < 19.4…

We have cross-matched the 1.4 GHz NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) with the first 210 fields observed in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS), covering an effective area of 325 square degrees (about 20% of the final 2dFGRS area). This yields a…

We use redshift determinations and spectral analysis of galaxies in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey to study the properties of local radio sources with $S\ge 1$ mJy. 557 objects drawn from the FIRST survey, corresponding to 2.3 per cent of…

The current deepest radio surveys detect hundreds of sources per square degree below 0.1mJy. There is a growing consensus that a large fraction of these sources are dominated by star formation although the exact proportion has been debated…

We review the statistical properties of the main populations of radio sources, as emerging from radio and millimeter sky surveys. Recent determinations of local luminosity functions are presented and compared with earlier estimates still in…

Next-generation radio surveys are about to transform radio astronomy by discovering and studying tens of millions of previously unknown radio sources. These surveys will provide new insights to understand the evolution of galaxies,…

The Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) has been used to survey at 1.4GHz, a small region (< 3 sq deg) overlapping with the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (Colless et al. 2001, MNRAS, 328, 1039). We surveyed with a varying radio…

Understanding how galaxies form in the early universe and their subsequent evolution through cosmic time is a major goal of modern astrophysics. Panchromatic look-back sky surveys significantly advanced the field in the past decades, and we…

We have identified 7824 radio sources from the 1.4GHz NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) with galaxies brighter than K=12.75 mag. in the Second Incremental Data Release of the 6dF Galaxy Survey (6dFGS DR2). The resulting sample of redshifts and…

We use redshift determinations and spectral analysis of galaxies in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey to study the properties of local radio sources with $S\ge 1$ mJy.

We investigate the star formation properties of ~800 sources detected in one of the deepest radio surveys at 1.4 GHz. Our sample spans a wide redshift range (~0.1 - 4) and about four orders of magnitude in star formation rate (SFR). It…

By combining the 2-degree Field Galaxy Redshift Survey with the NRAO VLA Sky Survey at 1.4 GHz, the environments of radio loud AGN in the nearby Universe are investigated using both local projected galaxy densities and a friends-of-friends…

Radio emission is insensitive to dust obscuration, and the breadth of the radio luminosity function ensures that sources are detected over a wide range of redshifts at all radio flux densities. As a result, radio continuum observations are…

I summarize recent results from radio observations of high redshift star forming galaxies, discuss radio continuum emission as a measure of star formation rate, and consider future capabilities at cm to IR wavelengths.

Faint extragalactic radio sources provide important information about the global history of star formation. Sensitive radio observations of the Hubble Deep Field and other fields have found that sub-mJy radio sources are predominantly…

We investigate the astrophysics of radio-emitting star-forming galaxies and ac- tive galactic nuclei (AGNs), and elucidate their statistical properties in the radio band including luminosity functions, redshift distributions, and number…

Analysis of the frequency and physical properties of galaxies with star-formation and AGN activity in different environments in the local universe is a cornerstone for understanding structure formation and galaxy evolution. We have built a…

Despite their relative sparseness, during the recent years it has become more and more clear that extragalactic radio sources (both AGN and star-forming galaxies) constitute an extremely interesting mix of populations, not only because of…

It has been speculated that low luminosity radio-loud AGN have the potential to serve as an important source of AGN feedback, and may be responsible for suppressing star-formation activity in massive elliptical galaxies at late times. As…

A systematic survey measuring the submillimetre continuum luminosity in radio galaxies between redshifts z ~ 0.1 - 5 is currently in progress. The first results from observations with the bolometer array SCUBA on the JCMT suggest a trend of…
