Title: How environment affects galaxy colour: a perspective from large and deep redshift surveys
Date: Wednesday, October 20th, 2010
Time: 15:00
Venue: Villa Bazzoni

Abstract:
It is well known that galaxy properties correlate with the local environment in which galaxies reside. In contrast, it is still matter of debate why and when these environmental dependences originate, and whether only one "main" property depends on environment, thus driving all the others environmental dependences via the correlations among properties themselves. In this context, I will present some results about the colour-density relation and the role played by stellar mass, as found in large and deep redshift surveys such as VVDS, zCOSMOS and DEEP2.
