Multi-wavelength surveys towards the SKA pathfinders
Matt J. Jarvis
In these proceedings I discuss various extragalactic surveys which will be undertaken over the next few years and which will be complementary to any HI and/or continuum surveys wit…
The luminosity function of Ly-alpha emitters at 2.3 < z < 4.6 from integral-field spectroscopy
Caroline van Breukelen, Matt J. Jarvis, Bram P. Venemans
We have used VIsible MultiObject Spectrograph Integral-Field Unit (VIMOS-IFU) observations centred on a radio galaxy at z=2.9 to search for Ly-alpha emitters within a comoving volu…
The discovery of a type-II quasar at z = 1.65 with integral-field spectroscopy
Matt J. Jarvis, Caroline van Breukelen, R. J. Wilman
In this letter we report the serendipitous discovery of a genuine type-II quasar at z = 1.65 using integral-field data from VIMOS on the VLT. This is the first discovery of a type-…
The accretion history of the Universe with the SKA
Matt J. Jarvis, Steve Rawlings
In this paper we investigate how the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) can aid in determining the evolutionary history of active galactic nuclei (AGN) from redshifts z= 0 ->6. Given the…
Near-infrared K-band imaging of a sample of Ultra-Steep-Spectrum radio sources selected at 74 MHz
Matt J. Jarvis, Maria J. Cruz, Aaron S. Cohen +2
In this paper we present near-infrared K-band imaging of a sample of ultra-steep spectrum (USS) radio sources selected at 74 MHz. The dual selection criteria of low frequency and U…
The radio galaxy K-z relation to z ~ 4.5
Matt J. Jarvis, Steve Rawlings, Steve Eales +2
Using a new radio sample, 6C* designed to find radio galaxies at z > 4 along with the complete 3CRR and 6CE sample we extend the radio galaxy K-z relation to z~4.5. The 6C* K-z dat…
