  1. Culling K-band Luminous, Massive Star Forming Galaxies at z>2 N. ARIMOTO (NAOJ) X.Kong, M.Onodera, C.Ikuta (NAOJ),K.Ohta (Kyoto), N.Tamura (Durham),A.Renzini, E.Daddi (ESO), A.Cimatti (Arcetri), T.Broadhurst (Tel’Aviv)

  2. Formation of Giant Ellipticals Massive elliptical galaxies are the products of recent hierarchical merging of pre-existing disk galaxies taking place largely at z<1.5 with moderate SFRs (eg, Cole et al. 2000). Near IR wide field imaging is crucial. Fully assembled massive galaxies with Ms>1011Mo at z>2 are extremely rare. Mass Function Evolution (Baugh et al. 2002)

  20. Internal reddening BzK ERO • B-z (the slope of UV spectrum) color E(B-V) of SFGs. • BzKs are dusty galaxies • ERO: OGs & DGs have different internal reddening. Kong, Charlot, Brinchman, Fall (2004)

  21. Stellar Mass BzKs EROs Stellar mass : based on multi-color photometry EROs and BzKs are similar (on average) 30% BzKs & EROs : M>1.0E11M @ Deep3a-F Klim=20.2 mag 55% BzKs & EROs : M>1.0E11M @Daddi-F Klim=18.8 mag

  22. Star Formation Rate UV Flux: 1500A<λ<2800A NIR spectra (Subaru) • Dad1901 SFR(Ha)=60 M/yr SFR(UV)=70 M/yr • Dad2326 SFR(Ha)=250 M/yr SFR(UV)=180M/yr • BzKs have high SFRs • EROs : OGs/DGs diff.

  27. A New Population of near-IRbright, z~2 Galaxies K>20 HST/ACS F435W, F850LP & K-band (VLT+ISAAC) A sample of 9 galaxies at 1.7<z<2.23 with bright K-band magnitudes 18.7<K<20 has recently been discovered (Daddi et al. 2003, astro-ph/0308456).

  28. Summary • BzKs • High internal reddening : E(B-V)~0.5 • strong star formation : SFR~200 M/yr • Massive galaxies : >30% (K=20) M>1.0E11M • Strong 2-D clustering • EROs (R-K>5) :DGs & OGs • OGs: passive galaxies • DGs: some of them are BzKs • OGs have low SFRs • Strong clustering and massive • LBGs E(B-V)≤0.3, SFR< 70 M/yr, clustering

  29. Summary BzK selection is a quite powerful way to separate star forming galaxies at 1.4<z<2.5. BzKs are different from LBGs (low extinction, low SFR). Some BzKs are dusty EROs (high extinction, low SFR), but most of BzKs are not EROs. K-band luminous, massive, high-SFRs galaxies at z>2 are likely to be possible precursors of z~1 passively evolving EROs and z=0 elliptical galaxies. Submm galaxies are sub-populations of BzKs with extremely high SFRs and metallicities.

  30. Conclusions • We have discovered a new population of reddened, • vigorous star-forming massive galaxies at z>2. • Their masses, likely extremely high star formation • rates, HST/ACS morphologies, clustering properties, • all suggest that they may be the long-sought-for • progenitors of nearby massive ellipticals, close to • their epoch of formation. • What Next? • Confirming the High SFRs, High metallicity • Contribution to the z>2 SFR Density • Understand the link between BzK and Submm Gals • CO follow-up • Co-evolution of BzK and Massive BHs ……… • COSMOS, NEP. SXDS, etc to see cosmic variance
