Autofib Redshift Survey ā€” I. Evolution of the galaxy luminosity function

Abstract

We present a detailed determination of the rest frame B-band galaxy luminosity function (LF) as a function of redshift and star formation activity from z = 0 to zā‰ƒ 0.75. The data set used for this purpose is a composite sample of over 1700 redshifts spanning a wide range in apparent magnitude, 11.5
