FUV LD vs. redshift. Filled circles indicate LF fit to full sample with unconstrained slope α. Filled squares denote LF fit with fixed ﹩\alpha =-1.6﹩. Purple (GALEX) and dark green (HDF) symbols are from this work. Black filled circle (bottom left) is taken from local LF (Wyder et al. 2005) and green square from Steidel et al. (1999). Open circles denote ﹩\rho _{1500}﹩ determined using Vmax. Errors do not include cosmic variance. Lines indicate ﹩( 1+z) ^{n}﹩ evolution. Dotted, solid, and dashed lines correspond to ﹩n=1.5,\,2.5,\,\mathrm{and}\,\,3.5﹩, respectively.
