The Cosmological Evolution Survey (COSMOS) is an astronomical survey designed to probe the formation and evolution of galaxies as a function of both cosmic time (redshift) and the local galaxy environment. The survey covers a 2 square degree equatorial field with imaging by most of the major space-based telescopes (Hubble, Spitzer, GALEX, XMM, Chandra, Herschel, NuStar) and a number of large ground based telescopes (Keck, Subaru, Very Large Array (VLA) , European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope (ESO-VLT), United Kingdom Infrared Telescope (UKIRT), The National Optical Astronomical Observatory (NOAO) Badde and Blanco telescopes, the Canada France Hawaii Telescope (CFHT), and others) with many ongoing surveys. Over 2 million galaxies are detected, spanning 75% of the age of the Universe. The COSMOS survey involves more than 100 scientists in a dozen countries.cosmos.astro.caltech.edu/
The SAMI Galaxy Survey began in March 2013, with the intention of creating a large survey of 3000 galaxies across a large range of environment. The key science goals of the SAMI Survey are to answer the following questions:
What is the physical role of environment in galaxy evolution?
What is the relationship between stellar mass growth and angular momentum development in galaxies?
How does gas get into and out of galaxies, and how does this drive star formation?
The data for the SAMI Galaxy Observatory is being collected using SAMI, the Sydney-Australian-Astronomical-Observatory Multi-object Integral-Field Spectrograph. SAMI is a brand new instrument on the 4-meter Anglo-Australian Telescope at Siding Spring Observatory. Integral-field spectroscopy (IFS) allows a unique view of how stars and gas zoom around inside distant galaxies because we collect dozens of spectra across the entire face of each galaxy.
