The Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS): Overview
- N. ScovilleN. Scoville N. Tyson
- 12 December 2006
Physics
The Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) is designed to probe the correlated evolution of galaxies, star formation, active galactic nuclei (AGNs), and dark matter (DM) with large-scale structure (LSS)…
A HIGHLY CONSISTENT FRAMEWORK FOR THE EVOLUTION OF THE STAR-FORMING “MAIN SEQUENCE” FROM z ∼ 0–6
- J. SpeagleC. SteinhardtP. CapakJ. Silverman
- 8 May 2014
Physics
Using a compilation of 25 studies from the literature, we investigate the evolution of the star-forming galaxy (SFG) main sequence (MS) in stellar mass and star formation rate (SFR) out to z ∼ 6.…
COSMOS PHOTOMETRIC REDSHIFTS WITH 30-BANDS FOR 2-deg2
We present accurate photometric redshifts (photo-z) in the 2-deg2 COSMOS field. The redshifts are computed with 30 broad, intermediate, and narrowbands covering the UV (Galaxy Evolution Explorer),…
Mass assembly in quiescent and star-forming galaxies since z ≃ 4 from UltraVISTA
- O. IlbertH. McCracken A. Zirm
- 14 January 2013
Physics
We estimate the galaxy stellar mass function and stellar mass density for star-forming and quiescent galaxies with 0.2 1.5 consistent with the expected uncertainties. We also develop a new method…
THE COSMOS2015 CATALOG: EXPLORING THE 1 < z < 6 UNIVERSE WITH HALF A MILLION GALAXIES
- C. LaigleH. McCracken J. Zabl
- 8 April 2016
Physics
We present the COSMOS2015 catalog, which contains precise photometric redshifts and stellar masses for more than half a million objects over the 2deg2 COSMOS field. Including new images from the…
GALAXY STELLAR MASS ASSEMBLY BETWEEN 0.2 < z < 2 FROM THE S-COSMOS SURVEY
We follow the galaxy stellar mass assembly by morphological and spectral type in the COSMOS 2 deg2 field. We derive the stellar mass functions and stellar mass densities from z = 2 to z = 0.2 using…
The COSMOS Survey: Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys Observations and Data Processing
- A. KoekemoerH. Aussel P. Shopbell
- 5 March 2007
Physics
We describe the details of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) Wide Field Channel (WFC) observations of the COSMOS field, including the data calibration and processing…
Wide-Field InfrarRed Survey Telescope-Astrophysics Focused Telescope Assets WFIRST-AFTA 2015 Report
- D. SpergelN. Gehrels F. Zhao
- 12 March 2015
Physics, Engineering
This report describes the 2014 study by the Science Definition Team (SDT) of the Wide-Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) mission. It is a space observatory that will address the most compelling…
The Cosmic Evolution of Hard X-Ray-selected Active Galactic Nuclei
We use highly spectroscopically complete deep and wide-area Chandra surveys to determine the cosmic evolution of hard X-ray–selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs). For the deep fields, we supplement…
NEW CONSTRAINTS ON THE EVOLUTION OF THE STELLAR-TO-DARK MATTER CONNECTION: A COMBINED ANALYSIS OF GALAXY–GALAXY LENSING, CLUSTERING, AND STELLAR MASS FUNCTIONS FROM z = 0.2 to z = 1
- A. LeauthaudJ. Tinker James E. Taylor
- 5 April 2011
Physics
Using data from the COSMOS survey, we perform the first joint analysis of galaxy–galaxy weak lensing, galaxy spatial clustering, and galaxy number densities. Carefully accounting for sample variance…
