Lyman alpha Luminosity Functions at Redshift z = 4.5

Zhen-Ya Zheng, Steven L. Finkelstein, Keely Finkelstein +7

We present a spectroscopically confirmed sample of Lyman alpha emitting galaxies (LAEs) at z ~ 4.5 in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDFS), which we combine with a sample…

Using Dark Energy Explorers and Machine Learning to Enhance the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment

Lindsay R. House, Karl Gebhardt, Keely Finkelstein +11

We present analysis using a citizen science campaign to improve the cosmological measures from the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX). The goal of HETDEX is to…

A Census of the Bright z=8.5-11 Universe with the Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescopes in the CANDELS Fields

Steven L. Finkelstein, Micaela Bagley, Mimi Song +21

We present the results from a new search for candidate galaxies at z ~ 8.5-11 discovered over the 850 arcmin^2 area probed by the Cosmic Assembly Near-Infrared Deep Extragalactic L…

Herschel Extreme Lensing Line Observations: Dynamics of two strongly lensed star forming galaxies near redshift z = 2

James E. Rhoads, Sangeeta Malhotra, Sahar Allam +11

We report on two regularly rotating galaxies at redshift z=2, using high resolution spectra of the bright [CII] 158 micron emission line from the HIFI instrument on the Herschel Sp…

Lyα Equivalent Width Distribution of Lyα Emitting Galaxies at Redshift z 4.5

Zhen-Ya Zheng, Jun-Xian Wang, Sangeeta Malhotra +3

Lyα line EWs provide important clues to the physical nature of high redshift LAEs. However, measuring the Lyα EW distribution of high-z narrowband selected LAEs can be hard becau…
