    The HiZELS/UKIRT Large Survey for Bright Lyα Emitters at z ∼ 9

    We present the largest area survey to date (1.4 deg2) for Lyα emitters (LAEs) at z ∼ 9, as part of the Hi-z Emission Line Survey (HiZELS). The survey, which primarily targets Hα emitters at z > 3, uses the Wide F...

    HiZELS: The High Redshift Emission Line Survey with UKIRT

    We report on HiZELS, the High-z Emission Line Survey, our successful panoramic narrow-band campaign survey using WFCAM on UKIRT to detect and study emission line galaxies at z ∼ 1–9. HiZELS employs the H2(S1) nar...

    LOFAR and APERTIF Surveys of the Radio Sky: Probing Shocks and Magnetic Fields in Galaxy Clusters

    At very low frequencies, the new pan-European radio telescope LOFAR is opening the last unexplored window of the electromagnetic spectrum for astrophysical studies. The revolutionary APERTIF- phased arrays tha...

    Galaxy Evolution in Three Dimensions: Time, Space and Mass

    There are three major axes to describe the evolution of galaxies, namely, time (redshift), space (environment) and mass (stellar mass). In this article, one topic each will be presented along these axes. (1) B...

    The Evolution of Active Galaxies in Clusters

    The results of deep radio, sub-mm and X-ray observations of samples of high redshift (z ∼ 1) clusters are presented. These reveal significant excesses of active galaxies associated with the clusters at all three ...

    Distant Radio Galaxies: Probes of the Formation of Massive Galaxies

    In this paper we review some of the evidence that the hosts of powerful high redshift (1 ≲ z ≲ 5) radio galaxies (HzRGs) are the progenitors of present day brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs). On the basis of HST i...

    The 3CR Radio Galaxies at z ~ 1: Old Stellar Populations in Central Cluster Galaxies

    We investigate the old stellar populations of the 3CR radio galaxies at redshift z ~ 1 using observations made with the Hubble Space Telescope and the United Kingdom InfraRed Telescope. At radii r ≲ 35 kpc, the i...
