Presentation on theme: "Overview of the L A M Main research axes: Formation and evolution of galaxies, Cosmology Interstellar medium Extra-solar planets Instrumental developments:"— Presentation transcript:

1 Overview of the L A M Main research axes: Formation and evolution of galaxies, Cosmology Interstellar medium Extra-solar planets Instrumental developments: optics: UV, visible, FIR, Ground based and spatial instrumentation HST, ISO, GALEX, VIMOS, COROT, Herschel, TPF, SNAP, JWST, ELT

2 Research activities at LAM in relation with MAGPOP Galaxy Evolution, Observational Cosmology ~20 permanent researchers +PhD students & post-docs Involved in MAGPOP: V.Buat, L. Tresse, S. Arnouts, A. Boselli, D Burgarella, J. Iglesias (LAM associate researcher) & M. Treyer Research topics (overview) Physical properties of galaxies: spectral energy distributions, star formation, dust attenuation, environmental effects etc… Statistical studies: number counts, photo-z, morphology, luminosity functions, luminosity densities, correlation functions etc…

3 Expertise in data analysis Spectroscopic analyses, diagnostics Multi-wavelength imaging: UV-opt-FIR Redshift determinations: Zspec, Zphot Luminosity functions and densities Environment, clustering, correlation functions Modeling: SFR,SFH, dust attenuation Morphological analysis

4 MOUs between GALEX & VVDS, GALEX & SWIRE, VVDS & SWIRE, all the data are not public

5 GALEX: measuring the star formation history from z~0 to 1-2 (in UV) P.I. Chris Martin All Sky Imaging Survey at 1530 Å (FUV) and 2315 Å (NUV) 20-21 ABmag Deep Imaging Surveys (few hundreds deg 2 ) 25.5 ABmag Spectroscopic mode: 1300- 3000 Å Data are becoming public…

6 GALEX sensitivity

8 VVDS: VIMOS VLT Deep Survey PI: O. Le Fevre Franco-italian consortium Wide and Deep photometric and I selected spectroscopic surveys 4 wide fields to Iab=22.5 covering 16 deg2 1 deep field to Iab=24 covering 1 deg2 (0<z<5) Low resolution mode : R~230

9 Current multi- analyses at LAM: GALEX, VVDS (and IRAS & SWIRE) Short presentations Luminosity functions and densities  Laurence Tresse Deep fields: UV-vis-NIR  Stephane Arnouts SED analyses UV-FIR  Jorge Iglesias/ Véronique Buat SED modeling  Denis Burgarella/Véronique Buat local universe, environment  Alessandro Boselli

10 Within/in relation with MAGPOP Post-doc researcher (2 years at LAM+ 1 year at IAP): galex/swire/vvds data. SED analysis and modeling. SED analyses from low to hi z focusing on UV/FIR emission: SED/modeling Improving Zphot with new SEDs
