Description:
This survey gives photometric redshifts of objects within 275 deg²
(−50◦ < α < 60◦ and −1.◦25 < δ < +1.◦25) centered on the Celestial
Equator. Each piece of sky has ∼20 runs of repeated scanning by the
SDSS camera contributing and thus reaches ∼2 mag fainter than the SDSS
single pass data, i.e., to r ∼ 23.5 for galaxies.
The zCOSMOS redshift survey used 600h on the VIMOS spectrograph spread over
five observing seasons (2005-2009) to obtain spectra of about 20,000 galaxies
selected to have Iab < 22.5 across the full 1.7 deg2 of the COSMOS field.
This part, "zCOSMOS-bright", was designed to yield a high and fairly uniform
sampling rate (about 70%), with a high success rate in measuring redshifts
(approaching 100% at 0.5 < z < 0.8), and with sufficient
velocity accuracy
(about 100 km/s) to efficiently map the environments of galaxies down to the
scale of galaxy groups out to redshifts z ~ 1.
