The Physical Nature of Rest-UV Galaxy Morphology During the Peak Epoch of Galaxy Formation

David R. Law, Charles C. Steidel, Dawn K. Erb +5

Motivated by the irregular and little-understood morphologies of z ~ 2 - 3 galaxies, we use non-parametric coefficents to quantify the morphologies of 216 galaxies which have been…

A Spectroscopic Survey of Redshift 1.4<z<3.0 Galaxies in the Goods-North Field: Survey Description, Catalogs, and Properties

Naveen A. Reddy, Charles C. Steidel, Dawn K. Erb +2

We present the results of a spectroscopic survey with the Keck I telescope of more than 280 star-forming galaxies and AGN at redshifts 1.4<z<3.0 in the GOODS-N field. Candidates ar…

The X-ray emission of Lyman break galaxies

E. S. Laird, K. Nandra, A. Hobbs +1

We present an analysis of the X-ray emission of a large sample of z~3 Lyman break galaxies (LBGs), based on Chandra/ACIS observations of several LBG survey fields. 24 LBGs are dire…

The Direct Detection of Lyman-Continuum Emission from Star-forming Galaxies at z~3

Alice E. Shapley, Charles C. Steidel, Max Pettini +2

We present the results of rest-frame ultraviolet spectroscopic observations of a sample of 14 z~3 star-forming galaxies in the SSA22a field. These spectra are characterized by unpr…

The Deep Chandra Survey of the Groth Strip - II. optical identification of the X-ray sources

A. Georgakakis, K . Nandra, E. S. Laird +9

We discuss the optical and X-ray spectral properties of the sources detected in a single 200ks Chandra pointing in the Groth-Westphal Strip region. Optical identifications and spec…

The Stellar, Gas and Dynamical Masses of Star-Forming Galaxies at z~2

Dawn K. Erb, Charles C. Steidel, Alice E. Shapley +3

We present analysis of the near-infrared spectra of 114 rest-frame UV-selected star-forming galaxies at z~2. By combining the H-alpha spectra with photometric measurements from obs…
