- Description:
- We analyze the internal optical colors of a complete sample of I_814_<24mag early-type and spiral galaxies from the northern and southern Hubble Deep Fields (HDF). The subset of galaxies in the HDF-North are also investigated in the near-infrared using NICMOS photometry. We compare the central (inner 5% radius) colors of those spirals with clearly visible bulges with the integrated colors of ellipticals in our sample.

- Description:
- We analyze a morphologically-selected complete sample of 52 late-type (spiral and irregular) galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field North with total K-magnitudes brighter than K=20.47 and typical redshifts z~0.5 to 1.4. This sample exploits in particular the ultimate imaging quality achieved by HST in this field, allowing us to clearly disentangle the early- from late-type galaxy morphologies, based on accurate profiles of the surface brightness distributions.

- Description:
- Using the newly available infrared images of the Hubble Deep Field in the J, H, and K bands and an optimal photometric method, we have refined a technique to estimate the redshifts of 1067 galaxies. A detailed comparison of our results with the spectroscopic redshifts in those cases where the latter are available shows that this technique gives very good results for bright enough objects [AB(814nm)<26.0]. From a study of the distribution of residuals [{Delta}z_rms_/(1+z)~0.1 at all redshifts], we conclude that the observed errors are mainly due to cosmic variance. This very important result allows for the assessment of errors in quantities to be directly or indirectly measured from the catalog. We present some of the statistical properties of the ensemble of galaxies in the catalog, and we finish by presenting a list of bright high-redshift (z~5) candidates extracted from our catalog together with recent spectroscopic redshift determinations confirming that two of them are at z=5.34 and z=5.60.

- Short Name:

- Description:
- We present a catalogue of galaxies in the HDF-S, created using the public version 1 images of the WFPC2 data. We created a catalogue with 4 pass-band (I(814), V(606), B(450), U(300). In V(606), B(450), U(300) and I(814), for each galaxy the catalogue gives photometric parameters. For the I(814), we estimated also the colours and for I(814)<26, the petrosian radius, the mean surface brightness within the petrosian radius, light concentration indexes, that is C_eta_ and C_abr_, and the asymmetry index as computed by Abraham software.

- Title:

- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a catalog of photometry and photometric redshifts of 335 faint objects in the Hubble Deep Field South (HDF-S) near-infrared camera and multiobject spectrograph (NICMOS) field. The analysis is based on (1) infrared images obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) using the NICMOS with the F110W, F160W, and F222M filters; (2) an optical image obtained with HST using the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph with no filter; and (3) optical images obtained with the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope with U, B, V, R, and I filters. The primary utility of the catalog of photometric redshifts is as a survey of faint galaxies detected in the NICMOS F160W and F222M images. The sensitivity of the survey varies significantly with position, reaching a limiting depth of AB(1.6{mu}m)~28.7 and covering 1.01arcmin^2^ to AB(1.6{mu}m)=27 and 1.05arcmin^2^ to AB(1.6{mu}m)=26.5. The catalog of photometric redshifts identifies 21 galaxies (or 6% of the total) of redshift z>5, eight galaxies (or 2% of the total) of redshift z>10, and 11 galaxies (or 3% of the total) of best-fit spectral type E/S0, of which five galaxies (or 1% of the total) are of redshift z>1.

- Description:
- The Hubble Deep Field South (HDF-S) observations targeted a high Galactic latitude field near QSO J2233-606. We present Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 observations of the field in four wide bandpasses centered at roughly 300, 450, 606, and 814 nm. Observations, data reduction procedures, and noise properties of the final images are discussed in detail. A catalog of sources is presented, and the number counts and color distributions of the galaxies are compared with a new catalog of the original Hubble Deep Field (HDF-N) that has been constructed in an identical manner. The two fields are qualitatively similar, with the galaxy number counts for the two fields agreeing to within 20%. The HDF-S has more candidate Lyman break galaxies at z>2 than the HDF-N. The star formation rate per unit volume computed from the HDF-S, based on the UV luminosity of high-redshift candidates, is a factor of 1.9 higher than from the HDF-N at z~2.7, and a factor of 1.3 higher at z~4.

- Description:
- We present the imaging observations made with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) of the Hubble Deep Field South. The field was imaged in four bandpasses: a clear CCD bandpass for 156ks, a long-pass filter for 22-25ks/pix typical exposure, a near-UV bandpass for 23ks, and a far-UV bandpass for 52ks. The clear, visible image is the deepest observation ever made in the UV-optical wavelength region, reaching a 10{sigma}AB magnitude of 29.4 for an object of area 0.2arcsec^2^. The field contains QSO J2233-606, the target of the STIS spectroscopy, and extends 50"x50" for the visible images, and 25"x25" for the ultraviolet images. We present the images, catalog of objects, and galaxy counts obtained in the field.

- Description:
- We analyze Hubble Space Telescope images of a complete sample of 341 galaxies drawn from the Canada-France Redhsift Survey (CFRS) and Low-Dispersion Survey Spectrograph (LDSS) ground-based redshift surveys. In this, the first paper in the series, each galaxy has been morphologically classified according to a scheme similar to that developed for the Medium Deep Survey. We discuss the reproducibility of these classifications and quantify possible biases that may arise from various redshift-dependent effects. We then discuss automated classifications of the sample and conclude, from several tests, that we can expect an apparent migration with redshift to later Hubble types that corresponds to a misclassification in our adopted machine classification system of ~24%+/-11 of the true "spirals" as "peculiars" at a redshift z~=0.9. After allowing for such biases, the redshift distribution for normal spirals, together with their luminosity function derived as a function of redshift, indicates approximately 1mag of luminosity evolution in B_AB_ by z~=1. The elliptical sample is too small for precise evolutionary constraints. However, we find a substantial increase in the proportion of galaxies with irregular morphology at large redshift from 9%+/-3% for 0.3<=z<=0.5 to 32%+/-12% for 0.7<=z<=0.9. These galaxies also appear to be the dominant cause of the rapid rise with redshift in the blue luminosity density identified in the redshift surveys. Although galaxies with irregular morphology may well comprise a mixture of different physical systems and might not correspond to present-day irregulars, it is clear that the apparently declining abundance and luminosities of our distant "irregulars" holds an important key to understanding recent evolution in the star formation history of normal galaxies.
