The spectral appearance of primeval galaxies

ASTR SOC P 200 (1999) 299-308

Authors:

B Guiderdoni, JEG Devriendt

Abstract:

The current and forthcoming observations of large samples of high-redshift galaxies selected according to various photometric and spectroscopic criteria can be interpreted in the context of galaxy formation, by means of models of evolving spectral energy distributions (SEDs). We hereafter present STARDUST which gives synthetic SEDs from the far UV to the submm wavelength range. These SEDs are designed to be implemented into semi-analytic models of galaxy formation.

Evidence for non-Gaussianity in the CMB

ArXiv astro-ph/9810414 (1998)

Authors:

J Magueijo, P Ferreira, K Gorski

Abstract:

In a recent Letter we have shown how COBE-DMR maps may be used to disprove Gaussianity at a high confidence level. In this report we digress on a few issues closely related to this Letter. We present the general formalism for surveying non-Gaussianity employed. We present a few more tests for systematics. We wonder about the theoretical implications of our result.

The 2dF QSO Redshift Survey

ArXiv astro-ph/9810127 (1998)

Authors:

SM Croom, T Shanks, BJ Boyle, RJ Smith, L Miller, NS Loaring

Abstract:

We present preliminary results from the 2-degree Field (2dF) QSO Redshift Survey currently under way at the Anglo-Australian Telescope. This survey aims to determine the redshifts of >25000 QSOs over a redshift range of 0.3
