Low-Redshift Ly-alpha Selected Galaxies from GALEX Spectroscopy: A Comparison with Both UV-Continuum Selected Galaxies and High-Redshift Ly-alpha Emitters
L. L. Cowie, A. J. Barger, E. M. Hu
We construct a sample of low-redshift Ly-alpha emission-line selected sources from GALEX grism spectroscopy of nine deep fields to study the role of Ly-alpha emission in galaxy pop…
Deep Spectroscopy of Ultra-Strong Emission Line Galaxies
Esther M. Hu, Lennox L. Cowie, Yuko Kakazu +1
Ultra strong emission-line galaxies (USELs) with extremely high equivalent widths (EW(H beta) > 30A) can be used to pick out galaxies of extremely low metallicity in the z=0-1 reds…
An Integrated Picture of Star Formation, Metallicity Evolution, and Galactic Stellar Mass Assembly
L. L. Cowie, A. J. Barger
We present an integrated study of star formation and galactic stellar mass assembly from z=0.05-1.5 and galactic metallicity evolution from z=0.05-0.9 using a very large and highly…
Mapping the Youngest Galaxies to Redshift One
Yuko Kakazu, Lennox L. Cowie, Esther M. Hu
We describe results of a narrow band search for ultra-strong emission line galaxies (USELs) with EW(H beta) > 30 A. 542 candidate galaxies are found in a half square degree survey…
The Stellar Population of Lyman-alpha Emitting Galaxies at z ~ 5.7
Kamson Lai, Jia-Sheng Huang, Giovanni Fazio +3
We present a study of three Lyman-alpha emitting galaxies (LAEs), selected via a narrow-band survey in the GOODS northern field, and spectroscopically confirmed to have redshifts o…
A Near-Infrared Analysis of the Submillimeter Background and the Cosmic Star-Formation History
W. -H. Wang, L. L. Cowie, A. J. Barger
We use new deep near-infrared (NIR) and mid-infrared (MIR) observations to analyze the 850m image of the GOODS HDF-N region. We show that much of the submillimeter background a…
