Star formation and the evolution of massive galaxies across cosmic time

Star formation and the evolution of massive galaxies across cosmic time

This thesis investigates the evolution of massive galaxies throughout the last 11 billion years using measured stellar masses and star formation rates. Firstly, we present a study of the resolved star-forming properties of a sample of distant massive (M > 10{11}) galaxies in the GOODS NICMOS Surv...
