We measure the build-up of the stellar mass of galaxies from z=6 to z=1. Using 15 band multicolour imaging data in the NICMOS Ultra Deep Field we derive photometric redshifts and masses for 796 galaxies down to H_AB=26.5. The derived…

We present the data release of the Gemini-South GMOS spectroscopy in the fields of 11 galaxy groups at $0.8<z<1$, within the COSMOS field. This forms the basis of the Galaxy Environment Evolution Collaboration 2 (GEEC2) project to study…

We studied the chronology of galactic bulge and disc formation by analysing the relative contributions of these components to the B-band rest-frame luminosity density at different epochs. We present the first estimate of the evolution of…

We employ high-resolution zoom-in cosmological simulations to analyze the emerging morphology of galaxies in dark matter halos at redshifts z > 2. We choose DM halos of similar masses of log (Mvir/Mo) ~11.65 +- 0.05 at the target redshifts…

We measure the merger fraction of massive galaxies using the UltraVISTA/COSMOS $Ks$-band selected catalog, complemented with the deeper, higher resolution 3DHST+CANDELS catalog selected in the HST/WFC3 $H$-band, presenting the largest…

We determine the intrinsic, 3-dimensional shape distribution of star-forming galaxies at 0<z<2.5, as inferred from their observed projected axis ratios. In the present-day universe star-forming galaxies of all masses 1e9 - 1e11 Msol are…

We have used deep, HST, near-IR imaging to study the morphological properties of the most massive galaxies at high z, modelling the WFC3/IR H-band images of the ~200 galaxies in the CANDELS-UDS field with 1 < z_phot < 3, and stellar masses…

We revisit the evolution of galaxy morphology in the COSMOS field over the redshift range $0.2\leq z \leq 1$, using a large and complete sample of 33,605 galaxies with a stellar mass of log($M_{\ast}$/M$_{\odot} )>9.5$ with significantly…

We present half-light sizes measured from H${\alpha}$ emission tracing star-formation in 281 star-forming galaxies from the KMOS3D survey at 0.7 < z < 2.7. Sizes are derived by fitting 2D exponential disk models, with bootstrap errors…

We study the evolution of the size - stellar mass relation for a large spectroscopic sample of galaxies in the GOODs North field up to $z \sim 3.5$. The sizes of the galaxies are measured from $\textit{K}_{s}$-band images (corresponding to…

We present new stellar mass functions at $z\sim6$, $z\sim7$, $z\sim8$, $z\sim9$ and, for the first time, $z\sim10$, constructed from $\sim800$ Lyman-Break galaxies previously identified over the XDF/UDF, parallels and the five CANDELS…

We present mock JWST observations for more than 250,000 different galaxies from the Astrid simulation with $3 \leq z \leq 6$. The mock observations are made using the BPASS stellar SED model, and a simple dust model. They are then viewed…

We measure the evolution in the intrinsic shape distribution of early-type galaxies from z~1 to z~0 by analyzing their projected axis-ratio distributions. We extract a low-redshift sample (0.04 < z < 0.08) of early-type galaxies with very…
