We use the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to construct a sample of 625 brightest group and cluster galaxies (BCGs) together with control samples of non-BCGs matched in stellar mass, redshift and…
A large Hα survey at z = 2.23, 1.47, 0.84 and 0.40: the 11 Gyr evolution of star-forming galaxies from HiZELS
This paper presents new deep and wide narrow-band surveys undertaken with United Kingdom Infrared Telescope (UKIRT), Subaru and the Very Large Telescope (VLT), a unique combined effort to select…
Predicting dust extinction from the stellar mass of a galaxy
We investigate how the typical dust extinction of Hα luminosity from a star-forming galaxy depends upon star formation rate (SFR), metallicity and stellar mass independently, using a sample of ~90…

A sample of 2712 radio-luminous galaxies is defined from the second data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) by cross-comparing the main spectroscopic galaxy sample with two radio surveys:…
Star formation at z=1.47 from HiZELS: an Hα+[O ii] double-blind study*
This paper presents the results from the first wide and deep dual narrow-band survey to select Hα and [Oii] line emitters at z= 1.47 ± 0.02, exploiting synergies between the United Kingdom Infrared…
Deep multi-frequency radio imaging in the Lockman Hole using the GMRT and VLA
In the run up to routine observations with the upcoming generation of radio facilities, the nature of sub-mJy radio population has been hotly debated. In this talk, we describe multi-frequency radio…
