What drives the growth of black holes?
DM Alexander, RC Hickox - New Astronomy Reviews, 2012 - Elsevier
Massive black holes (BHs) are at once exotic and yet ubiquitous, residing at the centers of
massive galaxies in the local Universe. Recent years have seen remarkable advances in …

Constraining the Low-mass Slope of the Star Formation Sequence at 0.5< z< 2.5
KE Whitaker, M Franx, J Leja… - The Astrophysical …, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
We constrain the slope of the star formation rate (SFR; log Ψ) to stellar mass (log M⋆)
relation down to log (M⋆/M☉)= 8.4 (log (M⋆/M☉)= 9.2) at z= 0.5 (z= 2.5) with a mass …

A New Census of the 0.2< z< 3.0 Universe. II. The Star-forming Sequence
We use the panchromatic spectral energy distribution (SED)-fitting code Prospector to
measure the galaxy logM*–logSFR relationship (the star-forming sequence) across 0.2< z< …

A highly consistent framework for the evolution of the star-forming “main sequence” from z∼ 0–6
Using a compilation of 25 studies from the literature, we investigate the evolution of the star-
