On the Lack of Correlation Between [OIII]/[OII] and Lyman-Continuum Escape Fraction

R. Bassett, E. V. Ryan-Weber, J. Cooke +9

We present the first results of our pilot study of 8 photometrically selected Lyman continuum (LyC) emitting galaxy candidates from the COSMOS field and focus on their optical emis…

The Missing Satellite Problem Outside of the Local Group: I -- Pilot Observation

Masayuki Tanaka, Masashi Chiba, Kohei Hayashi +5

We present results from a pilot observation of nearby (~20 Mpc) galaxies with mass similar to that of the Milky Way (MW) to address the missing satellite problem. This is the first…

ZFOURGE: Using Composite Spectral Energy Distributions to Characterize Galaxy Populations at 1<z<4

Ben Forrest, Kim-Vy H. Tran, Adam Broussard +12

We investigate the properties of galaxies as they shut off star formation over the 4 billion years surrounding peak cosmic star formation. To do this we categorize galax…

Near infrared spectroscopy and star-formation histories of 3<z<4 quiescent galaxies

C. Schreiber, K. Glazebrook, T. Nanayakkara +8

We present Keck-MOSFIRE H and K spectra for a sample of 24 candidate quiescent galaxies (QGs) at 3<z<4, identified from UVJ colors and photometric redshifts in the ZFOURGE and 3DHS…

ZFIRE: 3D Modeling of Rotation, Dispersion, and Angular Momentum of Star-Forming Galaxies at z~2

Leo Y. Alcorn, Kim-Vy Tran, Karl Glazebrook +10

We perform a kinematic and morphological analysis of 44 star-forming galaxies at in the COSMOS legacy field using near-infrared spectroscopy from Keck/MOSFIRE and F160W im…

A 3.5-million Solar Masses Black Hole in the Centre of the Ultracompact Dwarf Galaxy Fornax UCD3

Anton V. Afanasiev, Igor V. Chilingarian, Steffen Mieske +16

The origin of ultracompact dwarfs (UCDs), a class of compact stellar systems discovered two decades ago, still remains a matter of debate. Recent discoveries of central supermassiv…
