Lyman Break Galaxies at z~3 and Beyond

C. C. Steidel, K. L. Adelberger, M. Dickinson +2

We report on the status of large surveys of photometrically selected star forming galaxies at z~3 and z~4, with particular emphasis on both the advantages and the limitations of se…

Observations of Galaxy Clustering at High Redshift

C. C. Steidel

This paper reviews the current status of measurements of galaxy clustering at high redshifts (z > 0.3). The focus is on the inherent limitations in the observation and interpretati…

Metal Abundances at z < 1.5: Fresh Clues to the Chemical Enrichment History of Damped Lyman alpha Systems

Max Pettini, Sara L. Ellison, Charles C. Steidel +1

We explore the redshift evolution of the metal content of damped Lyman alpha systems (DLAs) with new observations of four absorbers at z < 1.5 . The main conclusion is that the col…

Infared Observations of Nebular Emission Lines from Galaxies at z = 3

Max Pettini, Melinda Kellogg, Charles C. Steidel +3

We present the first results from a program of near-infrared spectroscopy aimed at studying the familiar rest-frame optical emission lines from the H II regions of Lyman break gala…

Galaxy Clustering at z~3

C. Steidel, K. Adelberger, M. Giavalisco +3

Galaxies at very high redshift (z~3 or greater) are now accessible to wholesale observation, making possible for the first time a robust statistical assessment of their spatial dis…

Galaxies and Large Scale Structure at z~3

C. Steidel, K. Adelberger, M. Giavalisco +3

We summarize the status of a ``targeted'' redshift survey aimed at establishing the properties of galaxies and their large scale distribution in the redshift range 2.5 < z < 3.5. A…
