Cosmic Star-Formation History
- P. Madau, M. Dickinson
- Physics, Geology
- 28 February 2014
Over the past two decades, an avalanche of data from multiwavelength imaging and spectroscopic surveys has revolutionized our view of galaxy formation and evolution. Here we review the range of…
Radiative Transfer in a Clumpy Universe. IV. New Synthesis Models of the Cosmic UV/X-Ray Background
We present improved synthesis models of the evolving spectrum of the UV/X-ray diffuse background, updating and extending our previous results. Five new main components are added to our radiative…
HIGH-REDSHIFT GALAXIES IN THE HUBBLE DEEP FIELD : COLOUR SELECTION AND STAR FORMATION HISTORY TO Z 4
- P. Madau, H. Ferguson, M. Dickinson, M. Giavalisco, C. Steidel, A. Fruchter
- Physics
- 31 July 1996
The Lyman decrement associated with the cumulative effect of H I in QSO absorption systems along the line of sight provides a distinctive feature for identifying galaxies at z ≳ 2.5. Colour criteria,…
Radiative transfer in a clumpy universe: The colors of high-redshift galaxies
- P. Madau
- Physics
- 1 March 1995
We assess the effects of the stochastic attenuation produced by intervening QSO absorption systems on the broadband colors of galaxies at cosmological distances. We compute the H I opacity of a…
Radiative Transfer in a Clumpy Universe. II. The Ultraviolet Extragalactic Background
We present a detailed calculation of the propagation of AGN-like ionizing radiation through the intergalactic space. We model the ionization state of absorbing clouds, and show that the universe will…
The Star formation history of field galaxies
- P. Madau, L. Pozzetti, M. Dickinson
- Physics
- 25 August 1997
We develop a method for interpreting faint galaxy data which focuses on the integrated light radiated from the galaxy population as a whole. The emission history of the universe at ultraviolet,…
CANDELS: The Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey
- N. Grogin, D. Kocevski, M. Yun
- Physics
- 18 May 2011
The Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS) is designed to document the first third of galactic evolution, over the approximate redshift (z) range 8-1.5. It will…
Radiative Transfer in a Clumpy Universe. III. The Nature of Cosmological Ionizing Sources
The history of the transition from a neutral intergalactic medium (IGM) to one that is almost fully ionized can reveal the character of cosmological ionizing sources. We study the evolution of the…
A NEW NONPARAMETRIC APPROACH TO GALAXY MORPHOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION
- J. Lotz, J. Primack, P. Madau
- Physics
- 14 November 2003
We present two new nonparametric methods for quantifying galaxy morphology: the relative distribution of the galaxy pixel flux values (the Gini coefficient or G) and the second-order moment of the…
Candels: The cosmic assembly near-infrared deep extragalactic legacy survey - The hubble space telescope observations, imaging data products, and mosaics
- A. Koekemoer, S. Faber, M. Yun
- Physics
- 18 May 2011
This paper describes the Hubble Space Telescope imaging data products and data reduction procedures for the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS). This survey is…
