CDFS SA12 SA15 Morphologies & Star Formation Histories of Massive Galaxies at z > 1.3 P. McCarthy & The GDDS Team Venice 2006
2
Star Formation Histories Juneau et al.
3
The Most Massive Galaxies ~ 25% z = 0 mass density Glazebrook et al.
4
Spectral Types at z > 1.3 Star Forming Pure Passive
5
Color Evolution Passive Intermediate Composite Young Spectral Classes
6
Old Galaxies at 1.3 < z < 1.8 =1.3
7
Old Galaxies at 1.3 < z < 1.8 =1.3 =1.8
8
Old Galaxies at 1.3 < z < 1.8 =1.3 =1.8 =0.3
9
Old Galaxies at 1.3 < z < 1.8 =1.3 =1.8 2Gyr Pegase Model
10
Old Galaxies at 1.3 < z < 1.8 Age Fitting of 20 individual Galaxies 1.3 < z < 2.0 ~ 2.5 [Fe/H] > 0 E(B-V) ~ 1 ~ 4 [Fe/H] = 0

Star Forming Galaxies 1.3 < z < 2.0 ACS F814W
12
Pure Passive Systems ACS F814W NICMOS F160W 75-80% Spheroids
13
Surface Brightness Profiles Z = 1.32 Z = 1.84 0.3 < R e < 1
14
Size Distribution Little or no evolution in the size distribution
15
Kormendy Relation at 1.3 < z < 2 Rest Frame V-Band Kormendy Diagram
16
Kormendy Relation at 1.3 < z < 2 Passive Evolution ~1 mag per unit redshift
17
Kormendy Relation at 1.3 < z < 2 Passive Evolution 1 mag per unit redshift Z ~ 1 Radio Galaxies Best et al. Zirm et al.
18
Wider or Deeper Surveys? IMACS on the 6.5m Baade Telescope 27 Diameter field of view Wider
19
350-500 slits per mask R ~ 1000 Nod & Shuffle sky subtraction
20
Basics ``Up-Sizing Giant Magellan Telescope 24m Aperture 18 x 18 VMOS 7 x 7 NIRMOS
21
Conclusions Massive Red Galaxies to z ~ 2 show little Evolution in: Colors and Spectral Features Luminosities & Stellar Masses Morphologies and Sizes Structural Scaling Laws Not just early formation…. Early assembly? Where are the progenitors? see talks by Eyles, Mobasher, Wiklind
