Rest-frame UV LF determinations for galaxies at z ~ 8 (Section 6.1.2). Shown are the UV LF from this paper (solid red circles and red upper limits) and from Bouwens et al. (2010b, black open circles and black upper limits) and McLure et al. (2010, blue squares). LF estimates from Lorenzoni et al. (2011) are similar. Also presented is the 1σ upper limit from Castellano et al. (2010b, green downward arrow). See Table 7 for a comparison of the Schechter parameters derived here for the z ~ 7 UV LF with those found in other analyses.
