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…
We measure the luminosity function of QSOs in the redshift range 3.5 < z < 5.2 for the absolute magnitude interval -21 < M_{145} < -28. Suitable criteria are defined to select faint QSOs in the GOODS fields, checking their effectiveness and…
We present a determination of the optical QSO luminosity function and its cosmological evolution with redshift for a sample of over 6000 QSOs identified primarily from the first observations of the 2dF QSO Redshift Survey (2QZ). For QSOs…
In this Paper we present a clustering analysis of QSOs as a function of luminosity over the redshift range z=0.3-2.9. We use a sample of 10566 QSOs taken from the preliminary data release catalogue of the 2dF QSO Redshift Survey (2QZ). We…
The rotational velocity of distant galaxies, when interpreted as a size (luminosity) indicator, may be used as a tool to select high redshift standard rods (candles) and probe world models and galaxy evolution via the classical angular…
Recent results have questioned the description of the QSO luminosity function in terms of a pure luminosity evolution and call for a luminosity dependent luminosity evolution. Measurements of the QSO clustering amplitude and evolution allow…
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…
We model the evolution of IR galaxies using a phenomenological approach to match the observed source counts at different IR wavelengths. We introduce a new algorithm for reproducing source counts based on direct integration of probability…
An ESO Key programme dedicated to an Homogeneous Bright QSO Survey (HBQS) has been completed. 327 QSOs (Mb<-23, 0.3<z<2.2) have been selected over 555 deg^2 with 15<B<18.75. For B<16.4 the QSO surface density turns out to be a factor 2.2…
In the deepest optically identified X-ray survey yet performed, we have identified 32 X-ray selected QSOs to a flux limit of 2x10^{-15} erg cm^{-2} s^{-1} (0.5-2 keV). The survey, performed with the ROSAT PSPC, has 89% spectroscopic…
AIMS: We have compiled one of the largest normal-galaxy samples ever to probe X-ray luminosity function evolution separately for early and late-type systems. METHODS: We selected 207 normal galaxies up to redshift z~1.4, with data from four…
We analyze the Parkes quarter-Jansky flat-spectrum sample of QSOs in terms of space density, including the redshift distribution, the radio luminosity function, and the evidence for a redshift cutoff. With regard to the luminosity function,…
We report on a new estimate of the QSO X-ray luminosity function and its evolution with redshift based on a sample of 107 QSOs detected at faint X-ray fluxes, $S{\rm(0.5-2\,keV)}>4\times10^{-15}\,$\ergcms , with the {\it ROSAT} X-ray…
The luminosity function of galaxies is derived from a cosmological hydrodynamic simulation of a Lambda cold dark matter (CDM) universe with the aid of a stellar population synthesis model. At z=0, the resulting B band luminosity function…
We show that evolution of the luminosity density of galaxies in the universe provides a powerful test for the geometry of the universe. Using reasonable galaxy evolution models of population synthesis which reproduce the colors of local…
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…
We have analysed the optical luminosity-redshift distribution properties of bright QSOs, using a new large sample from the Hamburg/ESO survey. The sample provides insight into the hitherto poorly sampled bright tail of the luminosity…
An ESO Key programme dedicated to an Homogeneous Bright QSO Survey (HBQS) has been completed. 327 QSOs (Mb<-23, 0.3<z<2.2) have been selected over 555 deg^2 with 15<B<18.75. For B<16.4 the QSO surface density turns out to be a factor 2.2…
We present results of surveys for high redshift field galaxies selected by their having produced detectable absorption in the spectra of background QSOs. Such surveys, in essence selected by gas cross-section rather than by flux density,…
We determine cosmological and evolutionary parameters from the 3CR K-band Hubble diagram and K-band number counts, assuming that the galaxies in question undergo pure luminosity evolution. Separately the two data sets are highly degenerate…
