Abstract / Description of output
We estimate the galaxy stellar mass function and stellar mass density
for star-forming and quiescent galaxies with 0.210^10.7Msun. For the mass function of
the quiescent galaxies, we do not find any significant evolution of the
high-mass end at z1.5 consistent with the
expected uncertainties. We also develop a new method to infer the
specific SFR from the mass function of star-forming galaxies. We find
that the sSFR of 10^10Msun galaxies increases continuously in the
redshift range 1
