Abstract

Abstract We present an analysis of the ultraviolet luminosity function (UV LF) and star formation rate density of distant galaxies (7.5 < z < 13.5) in the “blank” fields of the Prime Extragalactic Areas for Reionization and Lensing Science (PEARLS) survey combined with Early Release Science data from the CEERS, GLASS, and NGDEEP surveys/fields and the first data release of JADES. We use strict quality cuts on EAZY photometric redshifts to obtain a reliable selection and characterization of high-redshift ( z > 6.5) galaxies from a consistently processed set of deep, near-infrared imaging. Within an area of 180 arcmin 2 , we identify 1046 candidate galaxies at redshifts z > 6.5 and we use this sample…
