A Consistent Study of Metallicity Evolution at 0.8 < z < 2.6
Eva Wuyts, Jaron Kurk, Natascha M. Förster Schreiber +33
We present the correlations between stellar mass, star formation rate (SFR) and [NII]/Ha flux ratio as indicator of gas-phase metallicity for a sample of 222 galaxies at 0.8 < z <…
The SINS/zC-SINF survey of z~2 galaxy kinematics: Outflow properties
Sarah F. Newman, Reinhard Genzel, Natascha Forster-Schreiber +22
Based on SINFONI Ha, [NII] and [SII] AO data of 30 z \sim 2 star-forming galaxies (SFGs) from the SINS and zcSINF surveys, we find a strong correlation of the Ha broad flux fractio…
The SINS/zC-SINF Survey of z~2 Galaxy Kinematics: The Nature of Dispersion Dominated Galaxies
Sarah F. Newman, Reinhard Genzel, Natascha M. Forster Schreiber +22
We analyze the spectra, spatial distributions and kinematics of Ha, [NII] and [SII] emission in a sample of 42, z~2.2 UV/optically selected star forming galaxies (SFGs) from the SI…
Resolving the Host Galaxy of a Distant Blazar with LBT/LUCI1 + ARGOS
Emanuele Paolo Farina, Iskren Y. Georgiev, Roberto Decarli +14
BL Lac objects emitting in the Very High Energy (VHE) regime are unique tools to peer into the properties of the Extragalactic Background Light (EBL). However, due to the typical a…
An X-ray Selected Galaxy Cluster in the Lockman Hole at Redshift 1.753
J. Patrick Henry, Mara Salvato, Alexis Finoguenov +12
We have discovered an X-ray selected galaxy cluster with a spectroscopic redshift of 1.753. The redshift is of the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG), which is coincident with the peak…
Shocked Superwinds from the z~2 Clumpy Star-forming Galaxy, ZC406690
Sarah F. Newman, Kristen Shapiro Griffin, Reinhard Genzel +20
We have obtained high-resolution data of the z 2 ring-like, clumpy star-forming galaxy (SFG) ZC406690 using the VLT/SINFONI with AO (in K-band) and in seeing-limited mode (in H- an…
The SINS Survey: Broad Emission Lines in High-Redshift Star-Forming Galaxies
Kristen L. Shapiro, Reinhard Genzel, Eliot Quataert +19
High signal-to-noise, representative spectra of star-forming galaxies at z~2, obtained via stacking, reveal a high-velocity component underneath the narrow H-alpha and [NII] emissi…
Star-Forming Galaxies at z~2: An Emerging Picture of Galaxy Dynamics and Assembly
Kristen L. Shapiro, Reinhard Genzel, Nicolas Bouché +9
In these proceedings, we summarize recent results from our "SINS" VLT/SINFONI integral-field survey, focusing on the 52 detected UV/optically-selected star-forming galaxies at z~2.…
LBT/LUCIFER Observations of the z~2 Lensed Galaxy J0900+2234
Fuyan Bian, Xiaohui Fan, Jill Bechtold +11
We present rest-frame optical images and spectra of the gravitationally lensed, star-forming galaxy J0900+2234 (z=2.03). The observations were performed with the newly commissioned…
