Scientific paper

Assuming that, during the evolution of disk galaxies, interstellar dust is continually produced and added to the interstellar medium, the authors model the opacity of galactic disks as a function of redshift. This opacity effect will affect galaxy number counts, producing an excess at faint magnitudes (compared to no-evolution models). Magnitude limited surveys will show more galaxies at large redshifts than otherwise expected.
