HETDEX: Star Formation Stochasticity Diagram of Lyman Alpha Emitting Galaxies at Cosmic Noon Confirms Three Archetypes

Nicole Firestone, Eric Gawiser, Kartheik G. Iyer +14

In this work, we aim to measure the star formation stochasticity of Lyman Alpha Emitting Galaxies (LAEs) at Cosmic Noon. We identify 270 LAEs from the HETDEX Survey in the COSMOS f…

Radio-detected Lya emitters at 1.88 < z < 3.52: AGN fraction and Lya emission

Sai Zhai, Huub Röttgering, Anniek J. Gloudemans +10

Lya emitters (LAEs) are galaxies with strong Lya emission, tracing early star formation and ionizing radiation. Their connection to active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is key to understa…

HETDEX [OII] galaxies at : Volume-limited samples and their power spectra

Jeongin Moon, Eiichiro Komatsu, Robin Ciardullo +15

The catalog from the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX) Public Data Release 1 (PDR1) contains half a million emission-line-selected [OII] galaxies spread across…

Enhancing Lyα Emitter Identification in HETDEX with a Convolutional Neural Network

Shiro Mukae, Erin Mentuch Cooper, Karl Gebhardt +9

We present a deep learning framework to enhance the identification of Ly emitters (LAEs) in the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX), an untargeted spectrosco…

Emission-line Variable Active Galactic Nuclei at Cosmic Noon from HETDEX

Chenxu Liu, Fanchuan Kong, Erin Mentuch Cooper +11

We present the first statistical census of emission-line variable active galactic nuclei (EVA) at cosmic noon by combining untargeted and deep HETDEX spectroscopy with multi-epoch…

DESI Spectroscopy of HETDEX Emission-line Candidates I: Line Discrimination Validation

Martin Landriau, Erin Mentuch Cooper, Dustin Davis +50

The Hobby-Eberly Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX) is an untargeted spectroscopic galaxy survey that uses Ly emitting galaxies (LAEs) as tracers of 1.9 < z < 3.5 large scale stru…
