4MOST: Project overview and information for the First Call for Proposals
R. S. de Jong, O. Agertz, A. Agudo Berbel +335
We introduce the 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST), a new high-multiplex, wide-field spectroscopic survey facility under development for the four-metre-class Vis…
The WIRCam Ultra Deep Survey (WUDS) I. Survey overview and UV luminosity functions at z~5 and z~6
R. Pello, P. Hudelot, N. Laporte +17
The aim of this paper is to introduce the WIRCam Ultra Deep Survey (WUDS), a near-IR photometric public survey carried out at the CFH Telescope in the field of the CFHTLS-D3 field…
The MICADO first light imager for the ELT: overview, operation, simulation
Richard Davies, João Alves, Yann Clénet +98
MICADO will enable the ELT to perform diffraction limited near-infrared observations at first light. The instrument's capabilities focus on imaging (including astrometric and high…
Simulating Surveys for ELT-MOSAIC: Status of the MOSAIC Science Case after Phase A
M. Puech, C. J. Evans, K. Disseau +17
We present the consolidated scientific case for multi-object spectroscopy with the MOSAIC concept on the European ELT. The cases span the full range of ELT science and require eith…
On-sky tests of sky-subtraction methods for fiber-fed spectrographs
Myriam Rodrigues, Michele Cirasuolo, Francois Hammer +8
We present preliminary results on on-sky test of sky subtraction methods for fiber-fed spectrograph. Using dedicated observation with FLAMES/VLT in I-band, we have tested the accur…
Environment, morphology and stellar populations of bulgeless low surface brightness galaxies
X. Shao, K. Disseau, Y. B. Yang +5
Based on the Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR 7, we investigate the environment, morphology and stellar population of bulgeless low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies in a volume-limited…
The Science Case for Multi-Object Spectroscopy on the European ELT
Chris Evans, Mathieu Puech, Jose Afonso +68
This White Paper presents the scientific motivations for a multi-object spectrograph (MOS) on the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT). The MOS case draws on all fields of co…
Science Case and Requirements for the MOSAIC Concept for a Multi-Object Spectrograph for the European Extremely Large Telescope
C. J. Evans, M. Puech, B. Barbuy +55
Over the past 18 months we have revisited the science requirements for a multi-object spectrograph (MOS) for the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT). These efforts span the…
The main sequence of star-forming galaxies at z~0.6: reinstating major mergers
M. Puech, F. Hammer, M. Rodrigues +3
The relation between the star formation rate and the stellar mass of star-forming galaxies has been used to argue that major mergers cannot be the main driver of star formation. He…
Characterizing the red optical sky background fluctuations from narrow-band imaging
M. Puech, H. Flores, Y. B. Yang +4
The detection and characterization of the physical properties of very distant galaxies will be one the prominent science case of all future Extremely Large Telescopes, including th…
Multi-Object Spectroscopy with the European ELT: Scientific synergies between EAGLE & EVE
C. J. Evans, B. Barbuy, P. Bonifacio +29
The EAGLE and EVE Phase A studies for instruments for the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT) originated from related top-level scientific questions, but employed different…
The properties of a large volume-limited sample of face-on low surface brightness disk galaxies
G. H. Zhong, Y. C. Liang, F. S. Liu +3
We select a large volume-limited sample of low surface brightness galaxies (LSBGs, 2,021) to investigate their statistical properties and their differences from high surface bright…
