摘要


The star formation history is a key-element to understand galaxy evolution and formation. Recent studies have shown that the star-formation rate peaks at redshift z=1-3 and then decline to its local value. The physical processes responsible for the sudden quenching of star-formation are still unknown. In order to better understand the origin of these effects, we propose in this study to use the UV-luminosity as an indicator of the Star-formation rate. We take advantage of our deep NIR/optical data from the UKIDSS-UDS/SXDS survey and our very deep CFHT U-band data to compute the luminosity function of galaxies at z=1-3. Then we fit a Schechter function and integrate to compute the luminosity density to explore the evolution of the star-formation rate.
