Masayuki Tanaka (ESO, not STScI) + Taddy Kodama (NAOJ) The Build-up of the Red Sequence at z<1.3
galaxies come in two flavours... red blue bright faint
Conclusion • The bright end of the red sequence appears first and it extends to fainter mags., and the build-up of the red sequence is ‘delayed’ in low density environments. • Galaxy-galaxy interactions may be a primary driver of this build-up. Environment Mass

? ? ? ? ? Clusters at higher redshifts Cluster outskirts and surrounding clumps/filaments remain unexplored. Also, faint galaxies at high redshifts have not been extensively examined yet. We carried out a wide and deep cluster survey. CL0016 at z=0.55 taken with WFPC2 on HST

PISCES project (in A&A abstract format) Aims: Methods: Results: Conclusions: Our goal is to quantify galaxy properties as functions of environment, mass, and time and understand how and when the environmental dependence of galaxy properties is established. We carry out a systematic, deep (~M*+4), wide-field (30’x30’), optical-nearIR imaging + spectroscopic survey of distant clusters. Some of our recent results are presented in this talk. Our survey is not finished yet, so…..we will see. For details, see Kodama+ 2005 PASJ, 57, 309
