Near-Infrared Integral Field Spectroscopy of Damped Lyman-alpha Systems

Andrew Bunker, Annette Ferguson, Rachel Johnson +5

We assess the feasibility of detecting star formation in damped Lyman-alpha systems (DLAs) at z>1 through near-infrared spectroscopy using the forthcoming integral field units on 8…

Stellar Populations and Galaxy Morphology at High Redshift

Andrew Bunker, Hyron Spinrad, Daniel Stern +4

In this article we investigate the morphology and stellar populations of high-redshift galaxies through multi-waveband HST imaging and ground-based spatially-resolved spectroscopy.…

The Evolution of the Stellar Hosts of Radio Galaxies

Mark Lacy, Andrew J. Bunker, Susan E. Ridgway

We present new near-infrared images of z>0.8 radio galaxies from the flux-limited 7C-III sample of radio sources for which we have recently obtained almost complete spectroscopic r…

A Serendipitous Search for High-Redshift Lyman alpha Emission: Two Primeval Galaxy Candidates at z~3

Curtis Manning, Daniel Stern, Hyron Spinrad +1

In the course of our ongoing search for serendipitous high-redshift Lyman alpha (LyA) Emissionin deep archival Keck spectra, we discovered two very high equivalent width (W_{obs} ~…

Discovery of a Color-Selected Quasar at z=5.50

Daniel Stern, Hyron Spinrad, Peter Eisenhardt +4

We present observations of RD J030117+002025, a quasar at z=5.50 discovered from deep, multi-color, ground-based observations covering 74 square arcmin. This is the most distant qu…

One-Line Redshifts and Searches for High-Redshift Lyman-Alpha Emission

Daniel Stern, Andrew J. Bunker, Hyron Spinrad +1

We report the serendipitous discovery of two objects close in projection with fairly strong emission lines at long wavelength (~9190 A). One (A) seems not to be hosted by any galax…
