We investigate the stellar and dust properties of massive (log$(M_*/M_odot) ge 10.5$) and dusty ($A_V ge 1$) galaxies at $1 le z le 4$ by modeling their spectral energy distributions (SEDs) obtained from the combination of UltraVISTA DR3 photometry and textit{Herschel} PACS-SPIRE data using MAGPHYS. Although the rest-frame U-V vs V-J (UVJ) diagram traces well the star-formation rates (SFR) and dust obscuration (A$_V$) out to $z sim 3$, $sim$15-20% of the sample surprisingly resides in the quiescent region of the UVJ diagram, while $sim50$% at $3<z<4$ fall in the unobscured star-forming region. The median SED of massive dusty galaxies exhibits weaker MIR and UV emission, and redder UV slopes with increasing cosmic time. The IR emission for our sample has a significant contribution ($>20%$) from dust heated by evolved stellar populations rather than star formation, demonstrating the need for panchromatic SED modeling. The local relation between dust mass and SFR is followed only by a sub-sample with cooler dust temperatures, while warmer objects have reduced dust masses at a given SFR. Most star-forming galaxies in our sample do not follow local IRX-$beta$ relations, though IRX does strongly correlate with A$_V$. Our sample follows local relations, albeit with large scatter, between ISM diagnostics and sSFR. We show that FIR-detected sources represent the extreme of a continuous population of dusty galaxies rather than a fundamentally different population. Finally, using commonly adopted relations to derive SFRs from the combination of the rest-frame UV and the observed 24$mu$m is found to overestimate the SFR by a factor of 3-5 for the galaxies in our sample.

We present an estimation of lifetimes of massive galaxies with distinct UV colors at $0.5 le z le 2.5$ in the COSMOS/UltraVISTA field. After dividing the galaxy sample into subsamples of red sequence (RS), blue cloud (BC), and green valley (GV) galax ies in different redshift bins, according to their rest-frame extinction-corrected UV colors, we derive their lifetimes using clustering analyses. Several essentials that may influence the lifetime estimation have been explored, including the dark matter (DM) halo mass function (HMF), the width of redshift bin, the growth of DM halos within each redshift bin, and the stellar mass. We find that the HMF difference results in scatters of $sim0.2$ dex on lifetime estimation; adopting a redshift bin width of $Delta z = 0.5$ is good enough to estimate the lifetime; and no significant effect on lifetime estimation is found due to the growth of DM halos within each redshift bin. The galaxy subsamples with higher stellar masses generally have shorter lifetimes; however, the lifetimes among different subsamples at z > 1:5 tend to be independent of stellar mass. Consistently, the clustering-based lifetime for each galaxy subsample agrees well with that inferred using the spectral energy distribution modeling. Moreover, the lifetimes of the RS and BC galaxies also coincide well with their typical gas depletion timescales attributed to the consumption of star formation. Interestingly, the distinct lifetime behaviors of the GV galaxies at $z le 1.5$ and $z>1.5$ can not be fully accounted for by their gas depletion timescales. Instead, this discrepancy between the lifetimes and gas depletion timescales of the GV galaxies suggests that there are additional physical processes, such as feedback of active galactic nuclei, accelerating the quenching of GV galaxies at high redshifts.
We present a measurement of the spatial clustering of rest-frame UV-selected massive galaxies at $0.5le z le 2.5$ in the COSMOS/UltraVISTA field. Considering four separate redshift bins with $Delta z=0.5$, we construct three galaxy populations, i.e., red sequence (RS), blue cloud (BC), and green valley (GV) galaxies, according to their rest-frame extinction-corrected UV colors. The correlation lengths of these populations are confirmed to be dependent on their rest-frame UV color and redshift: UV redder galaxies are found to be more clustered. In all redshift bins, the GV galaxies generally have medium clustering amplitudes and are hosted within dark matter halos whose masses are more or less between those of RS and BC galaxies; and the clustering amplitude of GV galaxies is close to that of AGNs in the same redshift bin, suggesting that AGN activity may be responsible for transforming galaxy colors. After carefully examining their stellar masses, we find that the clustering amplitudes of galaxy samples with different colors are all similar once they have a similar median stellar mass and that the median stellar mass alone may be a good predictor of galaxy clustering.

We build a Spitzer IRAC complete catalog of objects, obtained by complementing the $K_mathrm{s}$-band selected UltraVISTA catalog with objects detected in IRAC only. With the aim of identifying massive (i.e., $log(M_*/M_odot)>11$) galaxies at $4<z<7$ , we consider the systematic effects on the measured photometric redshifts from the introduction of an old and dusty SED template and from the introduction of a bayesian prior taking into account the brightness of the objects, as well as the systematic effects from different star formation histories (SFHs) and from nebular emission lines in the recovery of stellar population parameters. We show that our results are most affected by the bayesian luminosity prior, while nebular emission lines and SFHs only introduce a small dispersion in the measurements. Specifically, the number of $4<z<7$ galaxies ranges from 52 to 382 depending on the adopted configuration. Using these results we investigate, for the first time, the evolution of the massive end of the stellar mass functions (SMFs) at $4<z<7$. Given the rarity of very massive galaxies in the early universe, major contributions to the total error budget come from cosmic variance and poisson noise. The SMF obtained without the introduction of the bayesian luminosity prior does not show any evolution from $zsim6.5$ to $zsim 3.5$, implying that massive galaxies could already be present when the Universe was $sim0.9$~Gyr old. However, the introduction of the bayesian luminosity prior reduces the number of $z>4$ galaxies with best fit masses $log(M_*/M_odot)>11$ by 83%, implying a rapid growth of very massive galaxies in the first 1.5 Gyr of cosmic history. From the stellar-mass complete sample, we identify one candidate of a very massive ($log(M_*/M_odot)sim11.5$), quiescent galaxy at $zsim5.4$, with MIPS $24mu$m detection suggesting the presence of a powerful obscured AGN.
We report the discovery of 28 quasars and 7 luminous galaxies at 5.7 $le$ z $le$ 7.0. This is the tenth in a series of papers from the Subaru High-z Exploration of Low-Luminosity Quasars (SHELLQs) project, which exploits the deep multi-band imaging d ata produced by the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Subaru Strategic Program survey. The total number of spectroscopically identified objects in SHELLQs has now grown to 93 high-z quasars, 31 high-z luminous galaxies, 16 [O III] emitters at z ~ 0.8, and 65 Galactic cool dwarfs (low-mass stars and brown dwarfs). These objects were found over 900 deg2, surveyed by HSC between 2014 March and 2018 January. The full quasar sample includes 18 objects with very strong and narrow Ly alpha emission, whose stacked spectrum is clearly different from that of other quasars or galaxies. While the stacked spectrum shows N V 1240 emission and resembles that of lower-z narrow-line quasars, the small Ly alpha width may suggest a significant contribution from the host galaxies. Thus these objects may be composites of quasars and star-forming galaxies.
The recent discovery of high redshift dusty galaxies implies a rapid dust enrichment of their interstellar medium (ISM). To interpret these observations, we run a cosmological simulation in a 30$h^{-1}$ cMpc/size volume down to $z approx 4$. We use t he hydrodynamical code dustyGadget, which accounts for the production of dust by stellar populations and its evolution in the ISM. We find that the cosmic dust density parameter ($Omega_{rm d}$) is mainly driven by stellar dust at $z gtrsim 10$, so that mass- and metallicity-dependent yields are required to assess the dust content in the first galaxies. At $z lesssim 9$ the growth of grains in the ISM of evolved systems (Log$(M_{star}/M_{odot})>8.5$) significantly increases their dust mass, in agreement with observations in the redshift range $4 lesssim z < 8$. Our simulation shows that the variety of high redshift galaxies observed with ALMA can naturally be accounted for by modeling the grain-growth timescale as a function of the physical conditions in the gas cold phase. In addition, the trends of dust-to-metal (DTM) and dust-to-gas (${cal D}$) ratios are compatible with the available data. A qualitative investigation of the inhomogeneous dust distribution in a representative massive halo at $z approx 4$ shows that dust is found from the central galaxy up to the closest satellites along polluted filaments with $rm Log({cal D}) leq -2.4$, but sharply declines at distances $d gtrsim 30$ kpc along many lines of sight, where $rm Log({cal D}) lesssim -4.0$.
