Lyman alpha emission in high-redshift galaxies
C. Tapken, I. Appenzeller, S. Noll +4
A significant fraction of the high-redshift galaxies show strong Lyman emission lines. For redshifts z>5, most known galaxies belong to this class. However, so far not much is know…
Medium-resolution spectroscopy of galaxies with redshifts 2.3 < z < 3.5
D. Mehlert, C. Tapken, I. Appenzeller +3
Using FORS2 at the ESO VLT we obtained medium resolution (R ~ 2000) spectra of 12 galaxies with 2.37 < z < 3.40 in the FORS Deep Field. Two individual spectra with good S/N and a c…
Lyman-alpha emission galaxies at a redshift of z = 5.7 in the FORS Deep Field
C. Tapken, I. Appenzeller, A. Gabasch +7
We present the results of a search for Lyman-alpha emission galaxies at z~ 5.7 in the FORS Deep Field. The objective of this study is to improve the faint end of the luminosity fun…
The nature of the Lyman-alpha emission region of FDF-4691
C. Tapken, I. Appenzeller, D. Mehlert +2
In order to study the origin of the strong Lyman-alpha emission of high-redshift starburst galaxies we observed and modeled the emission of the z = 3.304 galaxy FDF-4691 (rest-fram…
The Tully-Fisher relation at intermediate redshift
A. Boehm, B. L. Ziegler, R. P. Saglia +7
Using the Very Large Telescope in Multi Object Spectroscopy mode, we have observed a sample of 113 field spiral galaxies in the FORS Deep Field (FDF) with redshifts in the range 0.…
The FORS Deep Field: Field selection, photometric observations and photometric catalog
J. Heidt, I. Appenzeller, A. Gabasch +21
The FORS Deep Field project is a multi-colour, multi-object spectroscopic investigation of an approx. 7 times 7 region near the south galactic pole based mostly on observations car…
