Using deep observations of the Chandra Deep Field South obtained with MIPS at 24mic, we present our preliminary estimates on the evolution of the infrared (IR) luminosity density of the Universe from z=0 to z~1. We find that a pure density evolution of the IR luminosity function is clearly excluded by the data. The characteristic luminosity L_IR* evolves at least by (1+z)^3.5 with lookback time, but our monochromatic approach does not allow us to break the degeneracy between a pure evolution in luminosity or an evolution in both density and luminosity. Our results imply that IR luminous systems (L_IR > 10^11 L_sol) become the dominant population contributing to the comoving IR energy density beyond z~0.5-0.6. The uncertainties affecting our measurements are largely dominated by the poor constraints on the spectral energy distributions that are used to translate the observed 24mic flux into luminosities.

Measurements of the low-z Halpha luminosity function have a large dispersion in the local number density of sources, and correspondingly in the SFR density. The possible causes for these discrepancies include limited volume sampling, biases arising f
rom survey sample selection, different methods of correcting for dust obscuration and AGN contamination. The Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey and Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) provide deep spectroscopic observations over a wide sky area enabling detection of a large sample of star-forming galaxies spanning 0.001<SFR(Halpha)<100 with which to robustly measure the evolution of the SFR density in the low-z universe. The large number of high SFR galaxies present in our sample allow an improved measurement of the bright end of the luminosity function, indicating that the decrease in number density of sources at bright luminosities is best described by a Saunders functional form rather than the traditional Schechter function. This result is consistent with other published luminosity functions in the FIR and radio. For GAMA and SDSS we find the r-band apparent magnitude limit, combined with the subsequent requirement for Halpha detection leads to an incompleteness due to missing bright Halpha sources with faint r-band magnitudes.
We investigate the evolution of the H$beta$+[OIII] and [OII] luminosity functions from $z sim 0.8$ to $sim5$ in four redshift slices per emission line using data from the High-{it z} Emission Line Survey (HiZELS). This is the first time that the H$be
ta$+[OIII] and [OII] luminosity functions have been studied at these redshifts in a self-consistent analysis. This is also the largest sample of [OII] and H$beta$+[OIII] emitters (3475 and 3298 emitters, respectively) in this redshift range, with large co-moving volumes $sim 1 times 10^6$ Mpc$^{-3}$ in two independent volumes (COSMOS and UDS), greatly reducing the effects of cosmic variance. The emitters were selected by a combination of photometric redshift and color-color selections, as well as spectroscopic follow-up, including recent spectroscopic observations using DEIMOS and MOSFIRE on the Keck Telescopes and FMOS on Subaru. We find a strong increase in $L_star$ and a decrease in $phi_star$ for both H$beta$+[OIII] and [OII] emitters. We derive the [OII] star-formation history of the Universe since $zsim5$ and find that the cosmic SFRD rises from $z sim 5$ to $sim 3$ and then drops towards $z sim 0$. We also find that our star-formation history is able to reproduce the evolution of the stellar mass density up to $zsim 5$ based only on a single tracer of star-formation. When comparing the H$beta$+[OIII] SFRDs to the [OII] and H$alpha$ SFRD measurements in the literature, we find that there is a remarkable agreement, suggesting that the H$beta$+[OIII] sample is dominated by star-forming galaxies at high-$z$ rather than AGNs.
Infrared (IR) luminosity is fundamental to understanding the cosmic star formation history and AGN evolution. The AKARI IR space telescope performed all sky survey in 6 IR bands (9, 18, 65, 90, 140, and 160um) with 3-10 times better sensitivity than
IRAS, covering the crucial far-IR wavelengths across the peak of the dust emission. Combined with a better spatial resolution, AKARI can much more precisely measure the total infrared luminosity (L_TIR) of individual galaxies, and thus, the total infrared luminosity density in the local Universe. By fitting IR SED models, we have re-measured L_TIR of the IRAS Revised Bright Galaxy Sample. We present mid-IR monochromatic luminosity to L_TIR
We present the detailed characterisation of a sample of 56 sources serendipitously detected in ALMA band 7, as part of the ALMA Large Program to INvestigate CII at Early Times (ALPINE) in COSMOS and ECDFS. These sources have been used to derive the t
otal infrared luminosity function (LF) and to estimate the cosmic star formation rate density (SFRD) up to z=6. We have looked for counterparts in all the available multi-wavelength and photometric redshift catalogues, and in deeper near- and mid-IR source lists and maps, to identify optically dark sources with no matches in the public catalogues. Our ALMA blind survey allows us to push further the study of the nature and evolution of dusty galaxies at high-z, identifying luminous and massive sources to redshifts and faint luminosities never probed before by any far-infrared surveys. The ALPINE data are the first ones to sample the faint-end of the infrared LF, showing little evolution from z=2.5 to z=6, and a flat slope up to the highest redshifts. The SFRD obtained by integrating the luminosity function remains almost constant between z=2 and 6, and significantly higher than the optical/UV derivations, showing an important contribution of dusty galaxies and obscured star formation up to high-z. About 14 per cent of the ALPINE serendipitous continuum sources are optically+near-IR dark (six show a counterpart only in the mid-IR and no HST or near-IR identification, while two are detected as [CII] emitters at z=5). The six HST and near-IR dark galaxies with mid-IR counterpart contribute for about 17 per cent of the total SFRD at z=5 and dominate the high-mass end of the stellar mass function at z>3.
We analyze a sample of ~2600 MIPS/Spitzer 24mic sources brighter than ~80muJy and located in the Chandra Deep Field South to characterize the evolution of the comoving infrared (IR) energy density of the Universe up to z~1. Using published ancillary
optical data we first obtain a nearly complete redshift determination for the 24mic objects associated with R<24 counterparts at z<1. We find that the 24mic population at 0.5<z<1 is dominated by ``Luminous Infrared Galaxies (i.e., 10^11 L_sol < L_IR < 10^12 L_sol), the counterparts of which appear to be also luminous at optical wavelengths and tend to be more massive than the majority of optically-selected galaxies. We finally derive 15mic and total IR luminosity functions (LFs) up to z~1. In agreement with the previous results from ISO and SCUBA and as expected from the MIPS source number counts, we find very strong evolution of the contribution of the IR-selected population with lookback time. Pure evolution in density is firmly excluded by the data, but we find considerable degeneracy between strict evolution in luminosity and a combination of increases in both density and luminosity (L*_IR prop. to (1+z)^{3.2_{-0.2}^{+0.7}}, Phi*_IR prop. to (1+z)^{0.7_{-0.6}^{+0.2}}). Our results imply that the comoving IR energy density of the Universe evolves as (1+z)^(3.9+/-0.4) up to z~1 and that galaxies luminous in the infrared (i.e., L_IR > 10^11 L_IR) are responsible for 70+/-15% of this energy density at z~1. Taking into account the contribution of the UV luminosity evolving as (1+z)^~2.5, we infer that these IR-luminous sources dominate the star-forming activity beyond z~0.7. The uncertainties affecting these conclusions are largely dominated by the errors in the k-corrections used to convert 24mic fluxes into luminosities.
