Galaxies in the first billion years: Implications for re-ionization and the star formation history at z>6
We discuss the selection of star-forming galaxies at z6 through the Lyman-break technique. Spitzer imaging implies many of these contain older stellar populations (>200Myr) which produce detectable Balmer breaks. The ages and stellar masses (1010M) imply that the star formation rate density a...
