Very Large Spectroscopic Surveys with the VLT
Ian R. Parry
Recently, it has been recognised that very large spectroscopic surveys (several million spectra) are required to advance our understanding of Dark Energy (via baryonic wiggles) and…
The star formation rate at redshift one: H-alpha spectroscopy with CIRPASS
Michelle Doherty, Andrew Bunker, Robert Sharp +3
We have conducted an H-alpha survey of 38 0.77<z<1 galaxies over ~100 arcmin^2 of the Hubble Deep Field North and Flanking Fields, to determine star formation rates (SFRs), with th…
DAzLE: The Dark Ages z (redshift) Lyman-alpha Explorer
Anthony Horton, Ian Parry, Joss Bland-Hawthorn +4
DAzLE is an near infrared narrowband differential imager being built by the Institute of Astronomy, Cambridge, in collaboration with the Anglo-Australian observatory. It is a speci…
Multi-Object Near-IR H-alpha Spectroscopy of z~1 star-forming galaxies in the HDF-N
Michelle Doherty, Andrew Bunker, Robert Sharp +6
We present preliminary results from a programme to obtain multi-object near-infrared spectroscopy of galaxies at redshifts . We are using the instrument CIRPASS (the Cam…
CIRPASS: description, performance and astronomical results
Ian Parry, Andrew Bunker, Andrew Dean +9
The Cambridge Infra-red Panoramic Survey Spectrograph (CIRPASS) is described. This near-infrared (NIR) spectrograph has been used on the 8m Gemini-South Telescope, the 3.9m Anglo-A…
Star Formation at Redshift One: Preliminary results from an H-alpha Survey
M. Doherty, A. Bunker, R. Sharp +5
We present the first successful demonstration of multi-object near-infrared spectroscopy on high redshift galaxies. Our objective is to address the true star formation history of t…
