Scientific paper

We propose to observe two samples of high redshift GRB host galaxies The first is a sample of 18 GRB hosts at 25. Our primary scientific goals are 1) to measure the stellar mass and star formation rates and epochs for these two samples of high redshift GRB host galaxies; 2) then to compare the distribution of galaxy masses and star formation rates for four samples of GRB hosts at redshifts from z=0 to z=6 with predictions of the cosmic star formation history and the results found from other galaxy samples. The four samples are the 18 GRB hosts at 25 GRB hosts, the z~1 GRB host sample (Floc'h et al. 2006) and finally, the low redshift GRB hosts (mostly star forming dwarfs).
