In this paper we examine magnitudes of quasars as a function of redshift in different frequency ranges (u,g,r,i,z). We show that on the smoothed curves mag(Z) in frequency ranges u,g,r there are characteristic features both similar for all…

We use the very deep and homogeneous I-band selected dataset of the FORS Deep Field (FDF) to trace the evolution of the luminosity function over the redshift range 0.5 < z < 5.0. We show that the FDF I-band selection down to I(AB)=26.8…

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…

Star formation history in galaxies is strongly correlated to their present-day colors and the Hubble sequence can be considered as a sequence of different star formation history. Therefore we can model the cosmic star formation history…

K band observations of the galaxy populations of three high redshift (z=0.8-1.0), X-ray selected, massive clusters are presented. The observations reach a depth of K = 21.5, corresponding to K*+3.5 mag. The evolution of the galaxy…

We characterize the evolution of the rest-frame 1500 $\unicode{xC5}$ UV luminosity Function (UVLF) from AstroSat/UVIT F154W and N242W imaging in the Great Observatories Origins Survey North (GOODS-N) field. With deep FUV observations, we…

We present the J-band luminosity function of 1838 mid-infrared and X-ray selected AGNs in the redshift range 0<z<5.85. These luminosity functions are constructed by combining the deep multi-wavelength broad-band observations from the UV to…

Using the conditional luminosity function -- the luminosity distribution of galaxies in a dark matter halo as a function of the halo mass -- we present an empirical model to describe the redshift evolution of the rest B-band galaxy…

We report the result of a faint quasar survey in a one square degree field. The aim is to test the Y-K/g-z and J-K/i-Y color selection criteria for quasars at faint magnitude, to obtain a complete sample of quasars based on deep optical and…

I assess the problem of morphological and photometric evolution of high-redshift galaxies in the ultraviolet wavelength range. My discussion will partly rely on a new set of template galaxy models, in order to infer the expected changes…

We describe some of the first X-ray detections of groups of galaxies at high redshifts (z~0.4), based on the UK deep X-ray survey of McHardy et al (1998). Combined with other deep ROSAT X-ray surveys with nearly complete optical…

We compile one of the largest ever samples to probe the X-ray normal galaxy luminosity function and its evolution with cosmic time. In particular, we select 207 galaxies (106 late and 101 early-type systems) from the Chandra Deep Field…

The UV radiation from a quasar leaves a characteristic pattern in the distribution of ionized hydrogen throughout the surrounding space. This pattern or light echo propagates through the intergalactic medium at the speed of light, and can…

We present a measurement of the Type I quasar luminosity function at z=5 using a large sample of spectroscopically confirmed quasars selected from optical imaging data. We measure the bright end (M_1450<-26) with Sloan Digital Sky Survey…

We present the ultraviolet (UV) luminosity function of galaxies from the GALEX Medium Imaging Survey with measured spectroscopic redshifts from the first data release of the WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey. This sample selects galaxies with high…

A new method is presented to obtain a non-parametric maximum likelihood estimate of the luminosity function and the selection function of a flux limited redshift survey. The method parameterizes the selection function as a series of…

The evolution of optically selected quasars is usually supposed to be well described by a single constant parameter, either k_L or k_D, depending whether we refer to luminosity or density evolution. In this paper we present a study of the…

Aims: In this work the luminosity function of QSOs is measured in the redshift range 3.5<z<5.2 for the absolute magnitude interval -21<M_{145}<-28. The determination of the faint end of the luminosity function at these redshifts provides…

[Abridged] We use the deepest existing mid- and far-infrared observations (reaching ~3 mJy at 70 um) obtained with Spitzer in the GOODS and FIDEL fields to derive the evolution of the rest-frame 15 um, 35 um, and total infrared luminosity…

We have measured the 3.6 micron luminosity evolution of about 1000 galaxies in 32 clusters at 0.2<z<1.25, without any a priori assumption about luminosity evolution, i.e. in a logically rigorous way. We find that the luminosity of our…
