Ultra Steep Spectrum (USS) radio sources are one of the efficient tracers of High Redshift Radio Galaxies (HzRGs). To search for HzRGs candidates, we investigate properties of a large sample of faint USS sources derived from our deep 325 MHz GMRT observations combined with 1.4 GHz VLA data on the two subfields (i.e., VLA-VIMOS VLT Deep Survey (VVDS) and Subaru X-ray Deep Field (SXDF)) in the XMM-LSS field. The available redshift estimates show that majority of our USS sample sources are at higher redshifts with the median redshifts ~ 1.18 and ~ 1.57 in the VLA-VVDS and SXDF fields. In the VLA-VVDS field, ~ 20% of USS sources lack the redshift estimates as well as the detection in the deep optical, IR surveys, and thus these sources may be considered as potential high-z candidates. The radio luminosity distributions suggest that a substantial fraction (~ 40%) of our USS sample sources are radio-loud sources, distributed over redshifts ~ 0.5 to 4.

Dusty high-z galaxies are extreme objects with high star formation rates (SFRs) and luminosities. Characterising the properties of this population and analysing their evolution over cosmic time is key to understanding galaxy evolution in the early Un
iverse. We select a sample of high-z dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFGs) and evaluate their position on the main sequence (MS) of star-forming galaxies, the well-known correlation between stellar mass and SFR. We aim to understand the causes of their high star formation and quantify the percentage of DSFGs that lie above the MS. We adopted a multi-wavelength approach with data from optical to submillimetre wavelengths from surveys at the North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) to study a submillimetre sample of high-redshift galaxies. Two submillimetre selection methods were used, including: sources selected at 850$mathrm{, mu m}$ with the Sub-millimetre Common-User Bolometer Array 2) SCUBA-2 instrument and {it Herschel}-Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE) selected sources (colour-colour diagrams and 500$mathrm{, mu m}$ risers), finding that 185 have good multi-wavelength coverage. The resulting sample of 185 high-z candidates was further studied by spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting with the CIGALE fitting code. We derived photometric redshifts, stellar masses, SFRs, and additional physical parameters, such as the infrared luminosity and active galactic nuclei (AGN) contribution. We find that the different results in the literature are, only in part, due to selection effects. The difference in measured SFRs affects the position of DSFGs on the MS of galaxies; most of the DSFGs lie on the MS (60%). Finally, we find that the star formation efficiency (SFE) depends on the epoch and intensity of the star formation burst in the galaxy; the later the burst, the more intense the star formation.
We use the GALFORM semi-analytical model to study high density regions traced by radio galaxies and quasars at high redshifts. We explore the impact that baryonic physics has upon the properties of galaxies in these environments. Star-forming emissio
n-line galaxies (Ly{alpha} and H{alpha} emitters) are used to probe the environments at high redshifts. Radio galaxies are predicted to be hosted by more massive haloes than quasars, and this is imprinted on the amplitude of galaxy overdensities and cross-correlation functions. We find that Ly{alpha} radiative transfer and AGN feedback indirectly affect the clustering on small scales and also the stellar masses, star- formation rates and gas metallicities of galaxies in dense environments. We also investigate the relation between protoclusters associated with radio galaxies and quasars, and their present- day cluster descendants. The progenitors of massive clusters associated with radio galaxies and quasars allow us to determine an average protocluster size in a simple way. Overdensities within the protoclusters are found to correlate with the halo descendant masses. We present scaling relations that can be applied to observational data. By computing projection effects due to the wavelength resolution of modern spectrographs and narrow-band filters we show that the former have enough spectral resolution to map the structure of protoclusters, whereas the latter can be used to measure the clustering around radio galaxies and quasars over larger scales to determine the mass of dark matter haloes hosting them.
We have carried out a deep (150 micro Jy rms) P-band, continuum imaging survey of about 40 square degrees of sky in the XMM-LSS, Lockman Hole and ELAIS-N1 fields with the GMRT. Our deep radio data, combined with deep archival observations in the X-ra
y (XMM/Chandra), optical (SDSS, CFHTLS), near-infrared (UKIDSS, VISTA/VIDEO), mid-infrared (Spitzer/SWIRE, Spitzer/SERVS) and far-infrared (Spitzer/SWIRE, Herschel/HerMES) will enable us to obtain an accurate census of star-forming and active galaxies out to z~2. This panchromatic coverage enables accurate determination of photometric redshifts and accurate modeling of the spectral energy distribution. We are using our large, merged photometric catalog of over 10000 galaxies to pursue a number of science goals.
The relation between infrared excess (IRX) and UV spectral slope ($beta_{rm UV}$) is an empirical probe of dust properties of galaxies. The shape, scatter, and redshift evolution of this relation are not well understood, however, leading to uncertain
ties in estimating the dust content and star formation rates (SFRs) of galaxies at high redshift. In this study, we explore the nature and properties of the IRX-$beta_{rm UV}$ relation with a sample of $z=2-6$ galaxies ($M_*approx 10^9-10^{12},M_odot$) extracted from high-resolution cosmological simulations (MassiveFIRE) of the Feedback in Realistic Environments (FIRE) project. The galaxies in our sample show an IRX-$beta_{rm UV}$ relation that is in good agreement with the observed relation in nearby galaxies. IRX is tightly coupled to the UV optical depth, and is mainly determined by the dust-to-star geometry instead of total dust mass, while $beta_{rm UV}$ is set both by stellar properties, UV optical depth, and the dust extinction law. Overall, much of the scatter in the IRX-$beta_{rm UV}$ relation of our sample is found to be driven by variations of the intrinsic UV spectral slope. We further assess how the IRX-$beta_{rm UV}$ relation depends on viewing direction, dust-to-metal ratio, birth-cloud structures, and the dust extinction law and we present a simple model that encapsulates most of the found dependencies. Consequently, we argue that the reported `deficit of the infrared/sub-millimetre bright objects at $z>5$ does not necessarily imply a non-standard dust extinction law at those epochs.
Population III galaxies are predicted to exist at high redshifts and may be rendered sufficiently bright for detection with current telescopes when gravitationally lensed by a foreground galaxy cluster. Population III galaxies that exhibit strong Lya
emission should furthermore be identifiable from broadband photometry because of their unusual colors. Here, we report on a search for such objects at z > 6 in the imaging data from the Cluster Lensing And Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH), covering 25 galaxy clusters in 16 filters. Our selection algorithm returns five singly-imaged candidates with Lya-like color signatures, for which ground-based spectroscopy with current 8-10 m class telescopes should be able to test the predicted strength of the Lya line. None of these five objects have been included in previous CLASH compilations of high-redshift galaxy candidates. However, when large grids of spectral synthesis models are applied to the study of these objects, we find that only two of these candidates are significantly better fitted by Population III models than by more mundane, low-metallicity stellar populations.
