The DEEP2 Redshift Survey: Lyman Alpha Emitters in the Spectroscopic Database
Marcin Sawicki, Brian C. Lemaux, Puragra Guhathakurta +7
We present the first results of a search for Lyman-alpha emitters (LAEs) in the DEEP2 spectroscopic database that uses a search technique that is different from but complementary t…
The VVDS-SWIRE-GALEX-CFHTLS surveys: Physical properties of galaxies at z below 1.2 from photometric data
C. J. Walcher, F. Lamareille, D. Vergani +42
We intend to show that it is possible to derive the physical parameters of galaxies from their broad-band spectral energy distribution out to a redshift of 1.2. This method has the…
The Molecular Hydrogen Explorer H2EX
F. Boulanger, J. P. Maillard, P. Appleton +12
The Molecular Hydrogen Explorer, H2EX, was proposed in response to the ESA 2015 - 2025 Cosmic Vision Call as a medium class space mission with NASA and CSA participations. The miss…
The Origin and Kinematics of Cold Gas in Galactic Winds: Insight from Numerical Simulations
Akimi Fujita, Crystal L. Martin, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low +2
We study the origin of Na I absorbing gas in ultraluminous infrared galaxies motivated by the recent observations by Martin of extremely superthermal linewidths in this cool gas. W…
A Magellan IMACS Spectroscopic Search for Lyman-Alpha Emitting Galaxies at Redshift 5.7
Crystal L. Martin, Marcin Sawicki, Alan Dressler +1
We present results from a blind, spectroscopic survey for redshift ~5.7 Lyman-alpha-emitting galaxies using the Inamori Magellan Areal Camera and Spectrograph. A total of ~200 squa…
Coincident, 100 kpc-scale damped Lyman alpha absorption towards a binary QSO: how large are galaxies at z ~ 3?
Sara L. Ellison, Joseph F. Hennawi, Crystal L. Martin +1
We report coincident damped Lyman alpha (DLA) and sub-DLA absorption at z = 2.66 and z = 2.94 towards the z ~ 3 13.8 arcsecond separation binary quasar SDSS 1116+4118 AB. At the re…
