The Assembly History of Disk Galaxies. I. The Tully-Fisher Relation to z ≃ 1.3 from Deep Exposures with DEIMOS

Creators: Miller, Sarah H.; Bundy, Kevin; Sullivan, Mark; Ellis, Richard S.; Treu, Tommaso

Abstract

We present new measures of the evolving scaling relations between stellar mass, luminosity and rotational velocity for a morphologically inclusive sample of 129 disk-like galaxies with z_(AB) < 22.5 in the redshift range 0.2
