The MUSE-Wide Survey: A determination of the Lyman emitter luminosity function at

Edmund Christian Herenz, Lutz Wisotzki, Rikke Saust +11

(Abridged) We investigate the Lyman emitter luminosity function (LAE LF) within the redshift range from the first instalment of the blind integral field spe…

The MUSE-Wide Survey: Survey Description and First Data Release

T. Urrutia, L. Wisotzki, J. Kerutt +17

We present the MUSE-Wide survey, a blind, 3D spectroscopic survey in the CANDELS/GOODS-S and CANDELS/COSMOS regions. Each MUSE-Wide pointing has a depth of 1 hour and hence targets…

Gaia Data Release 2: Properties and validation of the radial velocities

D. Katz, P. Sartoretti, M. Cropper +51

For Gaia DR2 (GDR2), 280 million spectra, collected by the RVS instrument on-board Gaia, were processed and median radial velocities were derived for 9.8 million sources brighter t…

Recovering the systemic redshift of galaxies from their Lyman-alpha line profile

A. Verhamme, T. Garel, E. Ventou +23

The Lyman alpha (lya) line of Hydrogen is a prominent feature in the spectra of star-forming galaxies, usually redshifted by a few hundreds of km/s compared to the systemic redshif…

Gaia Data Release 2: Observational Hertzsprung-Russell diagrams

Gaia Collaboration, C. Babusiaux, F. van Leeuwen +450

We highlight the power of the Gaia DR2 in studying many fine structures of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (HRD). Gaia allows us to present many different HRDs, depending in partic…

Two more, bright, z > 6 quasars from VST ATLAS and WISE

B. Chehade, A. C. Carnall, T. Shanks +10

Recently, Carnall et al. discovered two bright high redshift quasars using the combination of the VST ATLAS and WISE surveys. The technique involved using the 3-D colour plane i-z:…
