We use the optical and near-infrared galaxy samples from the Munich Near-Infrared Cluster Survey (MUNICS), the FORS Deep Field (FDF) and GOODS-S to probe the stellar mass assembly history of field galaxies out to z ~ 5. Combining information on the g alaxies stellar mass with their star-formation rate and the age of the stellar population, we can draw important conclusions on the assembly of the most massive galaxies in the universe: These objects contain the oldest stellar populations at all redshifts probed. Furthermore, we show that with increasing redshift the contribution of star-formation to the mass assembly for massive galaxies increases dramatically, reaching the era of their formation at z ~ 2 and beyond. These findings can be interpreted as evidence for an early epoch of star formation in the most massive galaxies in the universe.
The far-ultraviolet (UV) counts and the deep optical spectroscopic surveys have revealed an unexpected number of very blue galaxies (vBG). Using constraints from the UV and optical, we apply the galaxy evolution model PEGASE (Fioc & Rocca-Volmerange 1997, hereafter FRV) to describe this population with a cycling star formation. When added to normally evolving galaxy populations, vBG are able to reproduce UV number counts and color distributions as well as deep optical redshift distributions fairly well. Good agreement is also obtained with optical counts (including the Hubble Deep Field). The number of vBG is only a small fraction of the number of normal galaxies, even at faintest magnitudes. In our modelling, the latter explain the bulk of the excess of faint blue galaxies in an open Universe. The problem of the blue excess remains in a flat Universe without cosmological constant.

The Sombrero galaxy (NGC 4594) is an Sa galaxy with a symmetric dust ring. We have used the Large APEX BOlometer CAmera (LABOCA) at 870 micron and the MAx-Planck Millimeter BOlometer (MAMBO-2) at 1.2 mm to detect the dust ring for the first time at s ubmillimetre and millimetre wavelengths. We have constructed a model of the galaxy to separate the active galactic nucleus (AGN) and dust ring components. The ring radius at both 870 micron and 1.2 mm agrees well with the radius determined from optical absorption and atomic gas studies. The spectral energy distribution of the ring is well fitted by a single grey-body with dust emissivity index beta=2 and a dust temperature T_d=18.4 K. The dust mass of the ring is found to be 1.6pm0.2x10^7Msun which, for a Galactic gas-to-dust ratio, implies a gas mass that is consistent with measurements from the literature.
We present a new prospective analysis of deep multi-band imaging with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). In this work, we investigate the recovery of high-redshift $5<z<12$ galaxies through extensive image simulations of accepted JWST programs su ch as CEERS in the EGS field and HUDF GTO. We introduce complete samples of $sim300,000$ galaxies with stellar masses $log(M_*/M_odot)>6$ and redshifts $0<z<15$, as well as galactic stars, into realistic mock NIRCam, MIRI and HST images to properly describe the impact of source blending. We extract the photometry of the detected sources as in real images and estimate the physical properties of galaxies through spectral energy distribution fitting. We find that the photometric redshifts are primarily limited by the availability of blue-band and near-infrared medium-band imaging. The stellar masses and star-formation rates are recovered within $0.25$ and $0.3$ dex respectively, for galaxies with accurate photometric redshifts. Brown dwarfs contaminating the $z>5$ galaxy samples can be reduced to $<0.01$ arcmin$^{-2}$ with a limited impact on galaxy completeness. We investigate multiple high-redshift galaxy selection techniques and find the best compromise between completeness and purity at $5<z<10$ using the full redshift posterior probability distributions. In the EGS field, the galaxy completeness remains higher than $50%$ for $m_text{UV}<27.5$ sources at all redshifts, and the purity is maintained above $80$ and $60%$ at $zleq7$ and $10$ respectively. The faint-end slope of the galaxy UV luminosity function is recovered with a precision of $0.1-0.25$, and the cosmic star-formation rate density within $0.1$ dex. We argue in favor of additional observing programs covering larger areas to better constrain the bright end.
Chandra is detecting a significant population of normal and starburst galaxies in extremely deep X-ray exposures. For example, approximately 15% of the sources arising in the 2 Ms Chandra Deep Field-North survey are fairly normal galaxies, where norm al means Milky Way-type X-ray emission rather than simply exhibiting an optically normal spectrum. Many of these galaxies are being detected at large look-back times z=0.1-0.5, allowing the study of the evolution of X-ray binary populations over significant cosmological timescales. We are also detecting individual off-nuclear ultraluminous X-ray sources (e.g., X-ray binaries), providing the first direct constraints on the prevalence of lower-mass black holes at significantly earlier times. The X-ray emission from such normal galaxies may also be a useful star-formation rate indicator, based on radio/X-ray cross-identifications. We describe the contribution of normal galaxies to the populations which make up the X-ray background and present their directly measured X-ray number counts. We find that normal and starburst galaxies should dominate the 0.5--2 keV number counts at X-ray fluxes fainter than 7e-18 erg cm^{-2} s^{-1} (thus they will outnumber the mighty AGN). Finally, we look to the future, suggesting that it is important that the population of X-ray faint normal and starburst galaxies be well constrained in order to design the next generation of X-ray observatories.
