Spectroscopy of z ~ 7 candidate galaxies: Using Lyman-alpha to constrain the neutral fraction of hydrogen in the high-redshift universe
Joseph Caruana, Andrew J. Bunker, Stephen M. Wilkins +4
Following our previous spectroscopic observations of galaxies with Gemini/GNIRS and VLT/XSHOOTER, which targeted a total of 8 objects, we present here our results from a deep…
Low Masses and High Redshifts: The Evolution of the Mass-Metallicity Relation
Alaina Henry, Claudia Scarlata, Alberto Dominguez +15
We present the first robust measurement of the high redshift mass-metallicity (MZ) relation at 10^{8}< M/M_{\sun} < 10^{10}, obtained by stacking spectra of 83 emission-line galaxi…
Theoretical predictions for the effect of nebular emission on the broad band photometry of high-redshift galaxies
Stephen M. Wilkins, William Coulton, Joseph Caruana +6
By combining optical and near-IR observations from the Hubble Space Telescope with NIR photometry from the Spitzer Space Telescope it is possible to measure the rest-frame UV-optic…
Predicting Future Space Near-IR Grism Surveys using the WFC3 Infrared Spectroscopic Parallels Survey
James W. Colbert, Harry Teplitz, Hakim Atek +13
We present near-infrared emission line counts and luminosity functions from the HST WFC3 Infrared Spectroscopic Parallels (WISP) program for 29 fields (0.037 deg^2) observed using…
Interpreting the observed UV continuum slopes of high-redshift galaxies
Stephen M. Wilkins, Andrew Bunker, William Coulton +4
The observed UV continuum slope of star forming galaxies is strongly affected by the presence of dust. Its observation is then a potentially valuable diagnostic of dust attenuation…
VLT/XSHOOTER & Subaru/MOIRCS Spectroscopy of HUDF-YD3: No Evidence for Lyman-alpha Emission at z=8.55
Andrew J. Bunker, Joseph Caruana, Stephen M. Wilkins +5
We present spectroscopic observations with VLT/XSHOOTER and Subaru/MOIRCS of a relatively bright Y-band drop-out galaxy in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field, first selected by Bunker et…
Confronting predictions of the galaxy stellar mass function with observations at high-redshift
Stephen M. Wilkins, Tiziana Di Matteo, Rupert Croft +4
We investigate the evolution of the galaxy stellar mass function at high-redshift () using a pair of large cosmological hydrodynamical simulations: {\em MassiveBlack} and {…
Luminosities, Masses and Star Formation Rates of Galaxies at High Redshift (IAU279 conference proceedings)
Andrew Bunker
There has been great progress in recent years in discovering star forming galaxies at high redshifts (z>5), close to the epoch of reionization of the intergalactic medium (IGM). Th…
