Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse

This SPP-funded project was an integral part of the pan-chromatic (X-ray to radio) COSMOS survey that has enabled a most comprehensive study of galaxy and super-massive black hole evolution in the crucial redshift range z = 0.5 to 5, with particular attention to the influence of environment and large scale structure. For a significant time to come, the COSMOS project will provide key data for constraining models of galaxy formation and large scale structure given its areal coverage that delineates structure on the largest relevant scales (∼ 100 Mpc comoving). The SPP-project obtained and analyzed continuum and line data data from the VLA, from the IRAM telescopes, and from APEX. These radio and (sub-)mm observations represent a fundamental contribution to the project, including: (i) a detailed study of the role and contribution of star forming galaxies over cosmic time, including the most extreme objects at highest redshift, (ii) the most comprehensive study of the evolution of the FIR/radio correlation for star forming galaxies, and (iii) the evolution of low luminosity radio AGN out to high redshift.
