Description
We present grism spectra of emission-line galaxies (ELGs) from 0.6 to 1.6um from the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) on the Hubble Space Telescope. These new infrared grism data augment previous optical Advanced Camera for Surveys G800L 0.6-0.95um grism data in GOODS-South from the PEARS program, extending the wavelength coverage well past the G800L red cutoff. The Early Release Science (ERS) grism field was observed at a depth of two orbits per grism, yielding spectra of hundreds of faint objects, a subset of which is presented here. ELGs are studied via the H{alpha}, [OIII], and [OII] emission lines detected in the redshift ranges 0.2~<z~<1.4, 1.2~<z~<2.2, and 2.0~<z~<3.3, respectively, in the G102 (0.8-1.1um; R~=210) and G141 (1.1-1.6um; R~=130) grisms.
