Alberto Fernández-Soto's research interests

My fields of interest in Astronomy are essentially the following:  

Lyman alpha absorbers on QSO spectra:
- The proximity effect and measurements of the UV background
- Clustering properties
- Identification with galaxies  

Galaxy formation and evolution:
- Identification of high-z galaxies (photometric techniques)
- Origin and evolution of the Hubble sequence
- Evolution of the Luminosity Function  

Here you will find information regarding our Catalog of photometric redshifts of galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field.  

And here is a compilation of available facilities for optical astronomers.
