Very High Redshift Radio Galaxies
High redshift radio galaxies (HzRGs) provide unique targets for the study of the formation and evolution of massive galaxies and galaxy clusters at very high redshifts. We discuss how efficient HzRG samples are selected, the evidence for strong morphological evolution at near-infrared wavelengths, and for jet-induced star formation in the z = 3.800 HzRG 4C41.17.
متن کاملUnveiling the oldest and most massive galaxies at very high redshift
The identification and characterization of massive galaxies over a wide redshift range allow us to place stringent constraints on the cosmic history of galaxy mass assembly and on current models of galaxy formation and evolution. This work explores the existence of high redshift massive galaxies unveiled with Spitzer+IRAC, but missed by conventional selection techniques based on optical and nea...
متن کاملThe contribution of very massive high-redshift SWIRE galaxies to the stellar mass function
Context. In the last couple of years a population of very massive (M > 1011 M ), high-redshift (z ≥ 2) galaxies has been identified, but its role in galaxy evolution has not yet been fully understood. Aims. It is necessary to perform a systematic study of high-redshift massive galaxies, in order to determine the shape of the very massive tail of the stellar mass function and determine the epoch...
متن کاملSearching for Pop III stars and galaxies at high redshift
We review the expected properties of Pop III and very metal-poor starburst and the behaviour the Lyα and He ii λ1640 emission lines, which are most likely the best/easiest signatures to single out such objects. Existing claims of Pop III signatures in distant galaxies are critically examined, and the searches for He ii λ1640 emission at high redshift are summarised. Finally, we briefly summaris...
متن کاملPhotometric Properties of the Most Massive High-redshift Galaxies
We calculate the observable properties of the most massive high-redshift galaxies in the hierarchical formation scenario where stellar spheroid and supermassive black hole growth are fueled by gasrich mergers. Combining high-resolution hydrodynamical simulations of the hierarchical formation of a z ∼ 6 quasar, stellar population synthesis models, template AGN spectra, prescriptions for interste...
