Response to "Reanalysis of the spectrum of the z=10 galaxy ISAAC/VLT observations of a lensed galaxy at z=10.0" by Weatherley et al. (astro-ph/0407150)
R. Pello, J. Richard, J. -F. Le Borgne +1
In a recent posting of a submitted paper Weatherley et al. re-analyse the spectroscopic data from our observations of Abell 1835 IR 1916, a galaxy we claimed to be at redshift z=10…
Star-forming galaxies at z ~ 2: a major science case for the EMIR/GOYA survey on GTC
T. Contini, M. Lemoine-Busserolle, R. Pello +2
We present the first results of a project aiming to derive the physical properties of high-redshift lensed galaxies, intrinsically fainter than the Lyman break galaxies currently o…
Observing z>7 sources with the GTC
R. Pello, D. Schaerer, J. Richard +2
We present the first results obtained from our pilot ultra-deep near-IR survey with ISAAC/VLT, aimed at the detection of z>7 sources using lensing clusters as natural Gravitational…
Properties of Faint Distant Galaxies as seen through Gravitational Telescopes
R. Pello, T. Contini, M. Lemoine-Busserolle +5
This paper reviews the most recent developments related to the use of lensing clusters of galaxies as Gravitational Telescopes in deep Universe studies. We summarize the state of t…
Physical Properties of Low-Luminosity Galaxies at z ~ 2
M. Lemoine-Busserolle, T. Contini, R. Pello +3
We report the results obtained from ISAAC/VLT near-IR spectroscopy of two low-luminosity z ~ 1.9 galaxies located in the core of the lensing cluster AC114. The amplification factor…
Spectroscopic follow up of arclets in AC114 with the VLT
J. F. Le Borgne, L. Campusano, R. Pello +5
We present the first results on the VLT/FORS-1 spectroscopic survey of amplified sources and multiple images in the lensing cluster AC114. Background sources were selected in the c…
