Study AGN and Galaxy Environment and Evolution Since z=1: IRAC imaging of the DEEP2 fields
Abstract
We propose to carry out an IRAC imaging of the field 2 in the Deep Extragalactic Exploration Prober-2 (DEEP2) survey, as a part of a joint Spitzer and Chandra program. We perform multi-wavelength studies of galaxies and AGNs in a substantially large redshift sample with high resolution spectra observed with DEIMOS in DEEP2 . Our science goal is to study AGN enviroment and evolution since z=1. The IRAC colors and X-ray luminosities are essentail in selecting AGNs up to z=1. The IRAC bands also probe the rest-frame NIR bands (H and K) for galaxies at z=1, permitting to derive the rest-frame K-band luminosity function at z=1.
