WFILAS: Wide Field Imager Lyman Alpha Search
Eduard Westra, D. Heath Jones, Chris Lidman +6
The Wide Field Imager Lyman-Alpha Search (WFILAS) is a search for Lya emitting galaxies at z~5.7. Deep images from the Wide Field Imager (WFI) on the ESO/MPI 2.2m telescope have be…
Weak lensing measurements of dark matter halos of galaxies from COMBO-17
M. Kleinheinrich, P. Schneider, H. -W. Rix +8
We present a measurement of mass estimates for dark matter halos around galaxies from the COMBO-17 survey using weak gravitational lensing. COMBO-17 is particularly useful for this…
The galaxy-dark matter bias in the Garching-Bonn Deep Survey
Patrick Simon, Peter Schneider, Thomas Erben +3
We measured the bias and correlation factor of galaxies with respect to the dark matter using the aperture statistics including the aperture mass from weak gravitational lensing. T…
The Wide Field Imager Lyman-Alpha Search (WFILAS) for Galaxies at Redshift ~5.7: I. A Spatially Compact Lyman-alpha Emitting Galaxy at Redshift 5.721
Eduard Westra, D. Heath Jones, Chris E. Lidman +6
We report the spectroscopic confirmation of a compact \lya emitting galaxy at . A FORS2 spectrum of the source shows a strong asymmetric line with a flux of 5$\times10^{-1…
Evolution of AGN - an optical view
C. Wolf
This article discusses the our changing knowledge of the evolution of AGN from an optical perspective. It focusses on optically-unobscured (type-1) AGN as it is much trickier to in…
Star Formation at Redshift One: Preliminary results from an H-alpha Survey
M. Doherty, A. Bunker, R. Sharp +5
We present the first successful demonstration of multi-object near-infrared spectroscopy on high redshift galaxies. Our objective is to address the true star formation history of t…
