The CNOC2 Field Galaxy Luminosity Function I: A Description of Luminosity Function Evolution
We examine the evolution of the galaxy luminosity function (LF) using a sample of over 2000 galaxies, with 0.12 < z < 0.55 and 17.0 < Rc < 21.5, drawn from the Canadian Network for Observational Cosmology Field Galaxy Redshift Survey (CNOC2), at present the largest such sample at intermediate redshifts. We use UBVRcIc photometry and the spectral energy distributions (SED’s) of Coleman, Wu, & We...
متن کاملAutoob Redshift Survey: I { Evolution of the Galaxy Luminosity Function
We present a detailed determination of the restframe B-band galaxy luminosity function (LF) as a function of redshift and star formation activity from z=0 to z '0.75. The dataset used for this purpose is a combined sample of over 1700 redshifts spanning a wide range in apparent magnitude, 11.5< b J <24.0, which we term the Autoob Redshift Survey. The sample includes various earlier magnitude-li...
متن کاملBeyond the galaxy luminosity function
With the advent of large scale surveys (i.e., Legacy Surveys) it is now possible to start looking beyond the galaxy luminosity function (LF) to more detailed statistical representations of the galaxy population, i.e., multivariate distributions. In this review I first summarise the current state-of-play of the B-band global and cluster LFs and then briefly present two promising bivariate distri...
متن کاملEvolution of Galaxy Luminosity Function and Luminosity Function by Density
Using galaxy sample observed by the BATC large-field multi-color sky survey and galaxy data of SDSS in the overlapped fields, we study the dependence of the restframe r-band galaxy luminosity function on redshift and on large-scale environment. The large-scale environment is defined by isodensity contour with density contrast δρ/ρ. The data set is a composite sample of 69,671 galaxies with reds...
متن کاملThe Nearby Optical Galaxy Sample: the Local Galaxy Luminosity Function
In this paper we derive the galaxy luminosity function from the Nearby Optical Galaxy (NOG) sample, which is a nearly complete, magnitude–limited (B ≤14 mag), all–sky sample of nearby optical galaxies (∼6400 galaxies with cz < 5500 km s−1 ). For this local sample, we use galaxy distance estimates based on different peculiar velocity models. Therefore, the derivation of the luminosity function i...
