The properties of the brightest Lyman alpha emitters at z~5.7
C. Lidman, M. Hayes, D. H. Jones +5
(Abridged) We use deep VLT optical and near-IR spectroscopy and deep Spitzer/IRAC imaging to examine the properties of two of the most luminous Lyman alpha emitters at z=5.7. The c…
Empirical optical k-Corrections for redshifts <= 0.7
Eduard Westra, Margaret J. Geller, Michael J. Kurtz +2
The Smithsonian Hectospec Lensing Survey (SHELS) is a magnitude limited spectroscopically complete survey for R<=21.0 covering 4 square degrees. SHELS provides a large sample (15,5…
Triggered Star Formation in Galaxy Pairs at z=0.08-0.38
Deborah Freedman Woods, Margaret J. Geller, Michael J. Kurtz +3
We measure the strength, frequency, and timescale of tidally triggered star formation at redshift z=0.08-0.38 in a spectroscopically complete sample of galaxy pairs drawn from the…
Star Formation Indicators and Line Equivalent Width in Lyman Alpha Galaxies
Mark Dijkstra, Eduard Westra
The equivalent width (EW) of the Lyman Alpha (Lya) line is directly related to the ratio of star formation rates determined from Lya flux and UV flux density [SFR(Lya)/SFR(UV)]. We…
Evolution of the Halpha luminosity function
Eduard Westra, Margaret J. Geller, Michael J. Kurtz +2
The Smithsonian Hectospec Lensing Survey (SHELS) is a window on the star formation history over the last 4 Gyr. SHELS is a spectroscopically complete survey for Rtot < 20.3 over 4…
The 6dF Galaxy Survey: Final Redshift Release (DR3) and Southern Large-Scale Structures
D. Heath Jones, Mike A. Read, Will Saunders +30
We report the final redshift release of the 6dF Galaxy Survey, a combined redshift and peculiar velocity survey over the southern sky (|b|>10 deg). Its 136,304 spectra have yielded…
