J/ApJ/827/L25 Fractions of quiescent galaxies evolution (Martis+, 2016) ================================================================================ The evolution of the fractions of quiescent and star-forming galaxies as a function of stellar mass since z=3: increasing importance of massive, dusty star-forming galaxies in the early universe.

We show that the role of dusty star-forming galaxies within the overall galaxy population becomes more important with increasing stellar mass and grows rapidly with increasing redshift. Specifically, dusty star-forming galaxies dominate the galaxy population with log(M_star_/M_{sun}_)>~10.3 at z>~2. The ratio of dusty and non-dusty star-forming galaxies as a function of stellar mass changes little with redshift. Dusty star-forming galaxies dominate the star-forming population at log(M_star_/M_{sun}_)>~10.0-10.5, being a factor of ~3-5 more common, while unobscured star-forming galaxies dominate at log(M_star_/M_{sun}_)<~10. At log(M_star_/M_{sun}_)>10.5, red galaxies dominate the galaxy population at all redshift z<3, either because they are quiescent (at late times) or dusty star-forming (in the early universe). Description: We used the UltraVISTA DR1 (Muzzin+ 2013, J/ApJS/206/8) covering 1.62deg^2^ and the 3D-HST (Skelton+ 2014, J/ApJS/214/24; Momcheva+ 2016ApJS..225...27M) covering 900arcmin^2^, catalogs.
