We present positions, magnitudes, sizes and morphological classifications for 111 galaxies discovered in the Hubble Space Telescope NICMOS Camera 1 and Camera 2 parallel fields. We combine the magnitudes measured in the JHK-analog filters…
The morphological properties of galaxies between $21 {\rm~mag} < I < 25 {\rm~mag}$ in the {\em Hubble Deep Field} are investigated using a quantitative classification system based on measurements of the central concentration and asymmetry…
We discuss the observations leading to the Faint Blue Galaxy problem and the uncertainties upon which faint galaxy models are based. Using deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging with the Wide Field Planetary Camera (WFPC2), we show how…
We present a quantitative morphological analysis using HST NICMOS H160- and ACS I775- band imaging of 25 spectroscopically confirmed submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) which have redshifts between z=0.7-3.4. Our analysis also employs a…
We present results from our analysis of F160W NICMOS Parallel images. These data cover $\sim$~9~sq. arcminutes and reach 3$\sigma$ depths of H$=$ 24.3 $-$ 25.5 in a $0.6''$ diameter aperture with integration times of 2,000 to 13,000…
We present deep galaxy counts and half-light radii from F160W ($\lambda_c=1.6\mu$) images obtained with NICMOS on HST. Nearly 9 arcmin$^2$ have been imaged with camera 3, with $3\sigma$ depths ranging from H = 24.3 to 25.5 in a 0.6$''$…
The increased incidence of morphologically peculiar galaxies at faint magnitudes in the optical could be attributable either to "morphological k-corrections" (the change in appearance when viewing high-z objects at shorter rest-frame…
We have carried out a deep infrared imaging survey (1.1um and 1.6um) of the Hubble Deep Field North (HDF-N) using NICMOS on board the Hubble Space Telescope. The combined WFPC2+NICMOS data set lets us study galaxy morphologies, colors and…
(abridged) We present results from two new near-infrared imaging surveys. One covers 47.2 arcmin^2 to K(3\sigma)<20 whilst a second, deeper survey covers a sub-area of 1.8 arcmin^2 to K(3\sigma)<22.75. Over the entire area we have extremely…
Pure luminosity evolution models for galaxies provide an unacceptable fit to the redshifts and colors of faint galaxies. In this paper we demonstrate, using HST morphological number counts derived both from the $I_{814}$-band of WFPC2 in…
We present a study of photometric properties of the galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field South (HDFS) based on the released WFPC2 images obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). We have classified about 340 galaxies with $I<26$ mag in…
The unprecedented resolution of the refurbished Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) has led to major advances in our understanding of galaxy formation. The high image quality in the Medium Deep…
[Abridged] We present the results of the HST B-Band Parallel Survey (BBPS). It covers 0.0370 sq. deg. and consists of 31 shallow (4-6 orbit), randomly selected high latitude HST WFPC2 parallel fields with images taken in both the B (F450W)…
The excess numbers of blue galaxies at faint magnitudes are a long-standing cosmological puzzle. We present new number-magnitude counts as a function of galactic morphology from the first deep fields of the Cycle 4 Hubble Space Telescope…

We present the results of an imaging programme of distant galaxies (z~0.8) at high spatial resolution (~0.1").We observed 7 fields of 1'*1' with the NACO Adaptive Optics system (VLT) in Ks (2.16um) band with typical V ~ 14 guide stars and…
In this article we investigate the morphology and stellar populations of high-redshift galaxies through multi-waveband HST imaging and ground-based spatially-resolved spectroscopy. We study the redshift evolution of galaxy morphology in the…
We investigate the morphological properties of 494 galaxies selected from the GMASS survey at z>1, primarily in their optical rest frame, using HST images, from the CANDELS survey. We propose that the Hubble sequence of galaxy morphologies…

We combine deep K-band (Keck) with V- and I-band (NTT) observations of two high-Galactic latitude fields, surveying a total of ~2 sq. arcmin. The K-band galaxy counts continue to rise above K=22, reaching surface densities of few x 10^5 per…
