TCC Presentation / Extragalactic Seminar Understanding the Global Course of Galaxy Evolution at z < 1 [abstract] Evolution in the global galaxy population over the past 7 Gyr has been
dominated by two principal trends: a dramatic decline in the average
level of star-formation activity combined with a substantial growth in
the stellar mass density within the red galaxy population. While both
of these evolutionary trends are well measured at z < 1, the physical
mechanisms responsible remain somewhat poorly understood. Using data
from the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey in concert with complementary
observations spanning UV to radio wavelengths, I will present recent
results that directly constrain the physical processes driving the
global transformation in galaxy properties at z < 1. In particular, I
will discuss ongoing work to probe the cold gas component of
star-forming galaxies at high redshift, which is providing direct
constraints on the fuel supply for star formation when the Universe
was less than half its current age. Finally, I will conclude by
outlining the limitations of the current data sets and how they might
be overcome with future ground- and space-based facilities. |
