Abstract:
The new generation of multiwavelength surveys permits to describe in
detail the properties of galaxies over a large range of
redshifts. Here, we present the results of the VVDS-VLA Deep Field:
the aim of this work is to investigate radio sources properties
knowing a priori with great detail the optical behaviuor of the host
galaxies and having as control sample the entire VVDS survey. In
particular, we determined the the star formation, stellar mass and
luminosity functions for radio galaxies divided broadly in AGN and
star forming driven emission. Finally, we show that it is possible to
estimate the star formation history of the Universe using the optical
galaxies as tracers for the radio emission.
