A Near-Infrared Spectroscopic Survey of K-selected Galaxies at z~2.3: Redshifts and Implications for Broadband Photometric Studies

Mariska Kriek, Pieter G. van Dokkum, Marijn Franx +10

Using the Gemini Near-InfraRed Spectrograph (GNIRS), we have completed a near-infrared spectroscopic survey for K-bright galaxies at z~2.3, selected from the MUSYC survey. We deriv…

HST and Spitzer imaging of red and blue galaxies at z~2.5: A correlation between size and star formation activity from compact quiescent galaxies to extended star forming galaxies

S. Toft, P. van Dokkum, M. Franx +13

We present HST NICMOS+ACS and Spitzer IRAC+MIPS observations of 41 galaxies at 2<z<3.5 in the FIRES MS1054 field with red and blue rest-frame optical colors. About half of the gala…

The Multiwavelength Survey by Yale-Chile (MUSYC): Deep Near-Infrared Imaging and the Selection of Distant Galaxies

Ryan Quadri, Danilo Marchesini, Pieter van Dokkum +18

We present deep near-infrared JHK imaging of four 10'x10' fields. The observations were carried out as part of the Multiwavelength Survey by Yale-Chile (MUSYC) with ISPI on the CTI…

Measuring the Average Evolution of Luminous Galaxies at z<3: The Rest-frame Optical Luminosity Density, Spectral Energy Distribution, and Stellar Mass Density

Gregory Rudnick, Ivo Labbe, Natascha M. Foerster Schreiber +11

(Abridged) We present the evolution of the volume averaged properties of the rest-frame optically luminous galaxy population to z~3, determined from four disjoint deep fields with…

Direct Measurements of the Stellar Continua and Balmer/4000 Angstrom Breaks of Red z>2 Galaxies: Redshifts and Improved Constraints on Stellar Populations

Mariska Kriek, Pieter van Dokkum, Marijn Franx +11

We use near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy obtained with GNIRS on Gemini, NIRSPEC on KECK, and ISAAC on the VLT to study the rest-frame optical continua of three `Distant Red Galaxies…

Gemini Near Infrared Spectrograph Observations of a Red Star Forming Galaxy at z=2.225: Evidence for Shock-Ionization due to a Galactic Wind

P. G. van Dokkum, M. Kriek, B. Rodgers +2

Recent studies have shown that K-luminous galaxies at 2<z<2.5 have high Halpha line widths and high [NII]/Halpha ratios. If these lines arise from photo-ionization by massive stars…
