The environments of starburst and post-starburst galaxies at z=0.4-0.8
Bianca M. Poggianti, Alfonso Aragon-Salamanca, Dennis Zaritsky +16
Post-starburst (E+A or k+a) spectra, characterized by their exceptionally strong Balmer lines in absorption and the lack of emission lines, belong to galaxies in which the star for…
Morphologies of High Redshift, Dust Obscured Galaxies from Keck Laser Guide Star Adaptive Optics
J. Melbourne, V. Desai, Lee Armus +7
Spitzer MIPS images in the Bootes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey have revealed a class of extremely dust obscured galaxy (DOG) at z~2. The DOGs are defined by very red op…
The relation between star formation, morphology and local density in high redshift clusters and groups
Bianca M. Poggianti, Vandana Desai, Rose Finn +17
We investigate how the [OII] properties and the morphologies of galaxies in clusters and groups at z=0.4-0.8 depend on projected local galaxy density, and compare with the field at…
Redshift Distribution of Extragalactic 24 micron Sources
Vandana Desai, B. T. Soifer, Arjun Dey +10
We present the redshift distribution of a complete, unbiased sample of 24 micron sources down to fnu(24 micron) = 300 uJy (5-sigma). The sample consists of 591 sources detected in…
Spitzer Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy of Distant X-ray Luminous AGN
Kate Brand, Dan W. Weedman, Vandana Desai +7
We present mid-infrared spectroscopy of a sample of 16 optically faint infrared luminous galaxies obtained with the Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) on the Spitzer Space Telescope. Thes…
A Significant Population of Very Luminous Dust-Obscured Galaxies at Redshift z ~ 2
Arjun Dey, B. T. Soifer, Vandana Desai +12
Observations with Spitzer Space Telescope have recently revealed a significant population of high-redshift z~2 dust-obscured galaxies (DOGs) with large mid-IR to UV luminosity rati…
