We present the results of a study of a large sample of luminous (z'{AB}<26) Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) in the redshift interval 4.7<z<6.3, selected from a contiguous 0.63 square degree area covered by the UKIDSS Ultra Deep Survey (UDS) and…

We investigated the color and morphology of optically selected galaxies in the region of clusters at z $\sim$ 1.2 near to the radio galaxy 3C 324 using archived data taken with the Hubble Space Telescope. The faint galaxies selected at the…

The recent development of large, complete samples which identify high-redshift galaxies at z~5.7 and z~6.5 from deep, wide-field surveys provides detailed information on the earliest galaxies, their numbers, spatial and kinematic…

We study the photometric properties of Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) formed by redshift z=3 in a set of large cosmological smoothed-particle hydrodynamics simulations of the Lambda cold dark matter (CDM) model. Our numerical simulations…

Photometric redshifts have been determined for the galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field. The resulting redshift distribution shows two peaks: one at z~0.6 and one at z~2.2. Luminosity functions derived from the redshifts show strong luminosity…

The fraction of ionizing photons that escape from young star-forming galaxies is one of the largest uncertainties in determining the role of galaxies in cosmic reionization. Yet traditional techniques for measuring this fraction are…

We present a study of a sample of 45 spectroscopically confirmed, UV luminous galaxies at $z\sim 6$. They were selected as bright Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) using deep multi-band optical images in more than 2 deg$^2$ of the sky, and…

(abridged) We investigate photometric properties of Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) at z=3.5-5.2 based on large samples of 2,600 LBGs detected in deep (i'~27) and wide-field (1,200 arcmin^2) images taken in the Subaru Deep Field (SDF) and the…

We have carried out a study to simulate distant clusters of galaxies in deep ground-based optical images. We find that when model galaxies are added to deep images obtained with the William Herschel Telescope, there is considerable scatter…

We present the results of a new search for galaxies at redshift z ~ 9 in the first two Hubble Frontier Fields with completed HST WFC3/IR and ACS imaging. To ensure robust photometric redshift solutions, and to minimize incompleteness, we…

We use the exceptional depth of the Ultra Deep Field (UDF) and UDF-Parallel ACS fields to study the sizes of high redshift (z~2-6) galaxies and address long-standing questions about possible biases in the cosmic star formation rate due to…

Star-forming galaxies are considered to be the leading candidate sources that dominate the cosmic reionization at z>7, and the search for analogs at moderate redshift showing Lyman continuum (LyC) leakage is currently a active line of…

The FIR(60 microns) and UV (0.2 microns) emissions of individual star forming galaxies are compared to the mean properties of the local Universe. Almost all the galaxies exhibit a FIR to UV flux ratio larger than the ratio of the FIR and UV…

This paper presents the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (HUDF), a one million second exposure of an 11 square minute-of-arc region in the southern sky with the Hubble Space Telescope. The exposure time was divided among four filters, F435W (B435),…
