We report the first detection of emission line gas within the host galaxies of high redshift QSOs. This was done using narrow-band imaging at the redshifted wavelengths of [O III] and H alpha, using the PUEO adaptive optics camera of the…

Based on an R-band imaging survey of 6 high redshift (z~2) and high luminosity (M<-28mag) QSOs, we report the detection of extensions in two radio-quiet and one radio-loud QSO. The extensions are most likely due to the host galaxies of…

We have conducted a NIR study of the environments of seven radio-loud quasars at redshifts 1<z<1.6. In present paper we describe deep $K$ band images obtained for the fields of ~6X6 arcmin around the quasars with 3$\sigma$ limiting…

We investigate the effect of the environment on the infrared and radio emission of cluster galaxies during the transition epoch at 1 < z < 2 when they first start to quench consistently in the majority of galaxy clusters. We considered a…

We present deep wide-field K-band observations of six Hyperluminous Infrared Galaxies (HLIRGs) spanning a redshift range 0.44<z<1.55. The sample resides in a wide variety of environments, from the field to Abell 2 clusters, with a mean…

Three high-redshift (z=2) and high luminosity (M_B < -28 mag for Ho = 50, qo=0.5) QSOs, two radio-quiet one radio-loud, were imaged in R, I and K bands. The luminosities, colours and sizes of the hosts overlap with those of actively…

(abridged) The evolution of galaxy clustering from z=0 to z=4.5 is analyzed using the angular correlation function and the photometric redshift distribution of galaxies brighter than I_{AB}\le 28.5 in the HDF North. The reliability of the…

We present the results of an infrared survey of QSO fields at z=0.95, 0.995 and 1.5. Each z<1 field was imaged to typical continuum limits of J=20.5, Kprime=19 (5 sigma), and line fluxes of 1.3E10{-16}ergs/cm^2/s (1 sigma)in a 1%…

The correlation evolution of a high luminosity subsample of the CNOC2 redshift survey is examined. The sample is restricted to galaxies for which the k corrected and evolution corrected R luminosity is M_R <=-20 mag, where M_* ~= -20.3 mag.…

While galaxy clusters are dominated by quiescent galaxies at local, they show a wide range in quiescent galaxy fraction (QF) at higher redshifts. Here, we present the discovery of two galaxy clusters at $z \sim 0.95$ with contrasting QFs…

We measure the luminosity and color dependence and the redshift evolution of galaxy clustering in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey Ninth Data Release. We focus on the projected two-point correlation…

We measure the evolution of galaxy clustering out to a redshift of z~1.5 using data from two MUSYC fields, the Extended Hubble Deep Field South (EHDF-S) and the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDF-S). We use photometric redshift…

We present an update of our compilation of measured redshifts of galaxy clusters in the all-sky Abell catalog. In the last 7 years the number of ACO clusters with measured z has doubled to now ~2100, but still ~56% of these are based on…

We investigate the ability of hierarchical models of QSO formation and evolution to match the observed luminosity, number counts and spatial clustering of quasars at redshift z<2. These models assume that the QSO emission is triggered by…

Measuring the evolution in the clustering of galaxies over a large redshift range is a challenging problem. We have developed a new technique which uses photometric redshifts to measure the angular correlation function in redshift shells.…

We present evidence for a strong relationship between galaxy size and environment for the quiescent population in the redshift range 1 < z < 2. Environments were measured using projected galaxy overdensities on a scale of 400 kpc, as…

We present a catalog of galaxy clusters detected in a new ROSAT PSPC survey. The survey is optimized to sample, at high redshifts, the mass range corresponding to T> keV clusters at z=0. Technically, our survey is the extension of the 160…

We investigate the clustering properties of galaxies in the recently completed ELAIS-S1 redshift survey through their spatial two point autocorrelation function. We used a sub-sample of the ELAIS-S1 catalog covering approximately 4 deg^2…

This paper addresses the problem of detecting high-redshift clustering in deep photometric surveys. We have used photometric redshifts to select different samples of galaxies in the HDF, in order to study their clustering properties within…

Redshift-space distortions in the clustering of galaxy clusters provide a novel probe to test the gravity theory on cosmological scales. The aim of this work is to derive new constraints on the linear growth rate of cosmic structures from…
