We used the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS) final data release (PDR-2) to investigate the performance of colour-selected populations of galaxies as tracers of linear large-scale motions. We empirically selected volume-limited samples of blue and red galaxies as to minimise the systematic error on the estimate of the growth...

We use the full VIPERS redshift survey in combination with SDSS-DR7 to explore the relationships between star-formation history (using d4000), stellar mass and galaxy structure, and how these relationships have evolved since z ~ 1. We trace the extents and evolutions of both the blue cloud and red sequence by fitting double Gaussians to the...

Aims. Various galaxy classification schemes have been developed so far to constrain the main physical processes regulating evolution of different galaxy types. In the era of a deluge of astrophysical information and recent progress in machine learning, a new approach to galaxy classification has become imperative. Methods. In this paper, we...

We have used the final data from the VIPERS redshift survey to extract an unparalleled sample of more than 2000 massive M ≥ 1011M· passive galaxies (MPGs) at redshift 0:5 ≤ z ≤ 1:0, based on their NUVrK colours. This has enabled us to investigate how the population of these objects was built up over cosmic time. We find that the evolution of...
