We determine the low-redshift field galaxy stellar mass function (GSMF) using an area of 143 deg^2 from the first three years of the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey. The magnitude limits of this redshift survey are r < 19.4 mag over…

We acquired spectra for a random sample of galaxies within a 0.83 square degree region centered on the core of the Centaurus cluster. Radial velocities were obtained for 225 galaxies to limiting magnitudes of V < 19.5. Of the galaxies for…

We present validated and forward-modelled galaxy luminosity functions and photometric predictions for the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time using the ASTRID cosmological hydrodynamical simulation. Galaxy magnitudes…

The galaxy Luminosity Function (LF) has been estimated in the rest frame B luminosity at 0<z<1.25 and at 1700 {\AA} for 2.5<z<4.5 from deep multicolor surveys in the HDF-N, HDF-S, NTT-DF. The results have been compared with a recent version…

We present a new measurement of the evolving galaxy far-IR luminosity function (LF) extending out to redshifts z~5, with resulting implications for the level of dust-obscured star-formation density in the young Universe. To achieve this we…

We present luminosity functions for galaxies in loose groups in the Las Campanas Redshift Survey, differentiated by their environment (defined by the line-of-sight velocity dispersion sigma of the host groups) and also by their spectral…

We produce and analyse u-band luminosity functions for the red and blue populations of galaxies using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) u-band Galaxy Survey (uGS) and Deep Evolutionary Exploratory Probe 2 (DEEP2) survey. From a…

We present a catalog of high redshift star-forming galaxies selected to lie within the redshift range z ~ 7-8 using the Ultra Deep Field 2012 (UDF12), the deepest near-infrared (near-IR) exposures yet taken with the Hubble Space Telescope.…

We report new constraints on the galaxy luminosity function at z~9 based on observations carried out with ESO/VLT FORS2, HAWK-I and X-Shooter around the lensing cluster A2667, as part of our project aimed at selecting z~7-10 candidates…

We have compiled a sample of $\sim 9600$ bright, $i\le 18.95$, red, $b_j-r>2$, candidate galaxies in an area of 220 deg$^2$. These are luminous, $L > L^*$, field early-type galaxies with redshifts $0.3 \la z \la 0.6$. We present a redshift…

In this study we present a new experimental design using clustering-based redshift inference to measure the evolving galaxy luminosity function (GLF) spanning 5.5 decades from $L \sim 10^{11.5}$ to $ 10^6 ~ \mathrm{L}_\odot$. We use data…

Luminosity Functions have been obtained for very faint dwarf galaxies in the cores of four rich clusters of galaxies (Abell 2052, 2107, 2199 and 2666). It is found that the luminosity function of dwarf galaxies rises very steeply in these…
