The MUSE-Wide Survey: Survey Description and First Data Release

T. Urrutia, L. Wisotzki, J. Kerutt +17

We present the MUSE-Wide survey, a blind, 3D spectroscopic survey in the CANDELS/GOODS-S and CANDELS/COSMOS regions. Each MUSE-Wide pointing has a depth of 1 hour and hence targets…

The Shapes of the Rotation Curves of Star-forming Galaxies Over the Last 10 Gyr

Alfred L. Tiley, A. M. Swinbank, C. M. Harrison +16

We analyse maps of the spatially-resolved nebular emission of 1500 star-forming galaxies at - from deep KMOS and MUSE observations to measure the average…

Nearly all the sky is covered by Lyman-alpha emission around high redshift galaxies

L. Wisotzki, R. Bacon, J. Brinchmann +22

Galaxies are surrounded by large reservoirs of gas, mostly hydrogen, fed by inflows from the intergalactic medium and by outflows due to galactic winds. Absorption-line measurement…

Properties and redshift evolution of star-forming galaxies with high [OIII]/[OII] ratios with MUSE at 0.28<z<0.85

M. Paalvast, A. Verhamme, L. A. Straka +21

We present a study of the [OIII]5007/[OII]3727 (O32) ratios of star-forming galaxies drawn from MUSE data spanning a redshift range 0.28<z<0.85. Recently discovered Lyman continuum…

Recovering the systemic redshift of galaxies from their Lyman-alpha line profile

A. Verhamme, T. Garel, E. Ventou +23

The Lyman alpha (lya) line of Hydrogen is a prominent feature in the spectra of star-forming galaxies, usually redshifted by a few hundreds of km/s compared to the systemic redshif…
