Scientific paper

The history of the cosmic star-formation activity is a key observable to compare against theoretical predictions. The contribution by star-forming galaxies at high redshifts with moderate amount of dust obscuration (and reddening) is relatively easily estimated from optical and near-infrared data. Observations at longer wavelengths are necessary to identify those with more severe dust obscuration. Using multi-wavelength imaging data from the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS) we report on the evolution of the rest-frame UV luminosity function of relatively unobscured star-forming galaxies at redshifts 2.5
