We establish a robust statistical description of the star-forming galaxy population at the end of cosmic HI reionization ($5.0\le{}z\le6.6$) from a large sample of 52 galaxies with spectroscopically confirmed redshifts from the VIMOS…

We measure luminosity functions in the cores of four spiral-rich, poor clusters of galaxies at median redshift $z = 0.016$. In the red magnitude range -14 < M_R < -10, our data imply that the luminosity functions phi(L) \propto L^{alpha}…

Using photometric redshifts we determine the galaxy population of the clusters of galaxies Cl0016+16 at z=0.55, Cl1600+41 at z=0.54, Cl1601+42 at z=0.54 and MS1008-1224 at z=0.31. Comparing the clusters, we find no evidence for a universal…
