Scientific paper

We used the large binocular camera (LBC) mounted on the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) to observe the Lockman Hole in the U, B, and V bands. Our observations cover an area of 900 arcmin2. We reached depths of 26.7, 26.3, and 26.3 mag(AB) in the three bands, respectively, in terms of 50% source detection efficiency. We extracted a large number of sources (˜89000), detected in all three bands and examined their surface density, comparing it with models of galaxy evolution. We find good agreement with previous claims of a steep faint-end slope of the luminosity functions, caused by late-type and irregular galaxies at z>1.5.
