Mitigating the impact of fiber assignment on clustering measurements from deep galaxy redshift surveys

Tomomi Sunayama, Masahiro Takada, Martin Reinecke +6

We examine the impact of fiber assignment on clustering measurements from fiber-fed spectroscopic galaxy surveys. We identify new effects which were absent in previous, relatively…

Constraint on the inflow/outflow rates in star-forming galaxies at z~1.4 from molecular gas observations

Akifumi Seko, Kouji Ohta, Kiyoto Yabe +5

We constrain the rate of gas inflow into and outflow from a main-sequence star-forming galaxy at z~1.4 by fitting a simple analytic model for the chemical evolution in a galaxy to…

Visible camera cryostat design and performance for the SuMIRe Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS)

Stephen A. Smee, James E. Gunn, Mirek Golebiowski +13

We describe the design and performance of the SuMIRe Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) visible camera cryostats. SuMIRe PFS is a massively multi-plexed ground-based spectrograph consi…
