Galaxy luminosity functions to z similar to 1 from deep2 and combo-17: Implications for red galaxy formation

The DEEP2 and COMBO-17 surveys are compared to study luminosity functions of red and blue galaxies to z ∼ 1. The two surveys have different methods and sensitivities, but nevertheless results agree. After z ∼ 1, M*B has dimmed by 1.2-1.3 mag for all colors of galaxies, ø* for blue galaxies has hardl...
