1351. LAE among star-forming galaxies at z=2.5

LAE among star-forming galaxies at z=2.5

Description:
We conducted a deep narrow-band imaging survey with the Subaru Prime Focus Camera on the Subaru Telescope and constructed a sample of Ly{alpha} emitters (LAEs) at z=2.53 in the UDS-CANDELS field, where a sample of H{alpha} emitters (HAEs) at the same redshift is already obtained from our previous narrow-band observation at near-infrared. The deep narrow-band and multibroad-band data allow us to find LAEs of stellar masses and star formation rates (SFRs) down to >=10^8^M_{sun}_ and >=0.2 M_{sun}_/yr, respectively. We show that the LAEs are located along the same mass-SFR sequence traced by normal star-forming galaxies such as HAEs, but towards a significantly lower mass regime. Likewise, LAEs seem to share the same mass-size relation with typical star-forming galaxies, except for the massive LAEs that tend to show significantly compact sizes. We identify a vigorous mass growth in the central part of LAEs: the stellar mass density in the central region of LAEs increases as their total galaxy mass grows. On the other hand, we see no Ly{alpha} line in emission for most of the HAEs. Rather, we find that the Ly{alpha} feature is either absent or in absorption (Ly{alpha} absorbers, LAAs), and its absorption strength may increase with reddening of the UV continuum slope. We demonstrate that a deep Ly{alpha} narrow-band imaging like this study is able to search for not only LAEs but also LAAs in a certain redshift slice. This work suggests that LAEs trace normal star-forming galaxies in the low-mas

LAEs at z~4.5 in the LALA Cetus field

Description:
We present a large sample of Ly{alpha}-emitting galaxies (LAEs) spectroscopically confirmed at redshift z~4.5, based on Inamori-Magellan Areal Camera and Spectrograph spectroscopic observations of candidate z~4.5 Ly{alpha}-emitting galaxies in the large area Lyman alpha (LALA) narrowband imaging survey Cetus field. We identify 110 of them as z~4.5 Ly{alpha} emitters based on single-line detections with no continuum emission blueward of the line. Six foreground galaxies are identified, either based on multiple lines or blueward continuum emission. The Ly{alpha} confirmation rate varies from <50% to 76% for candidates selected in different narrowband filters at slightly different redshifts. The sample includes many objects with equivalent widths (EWs)>~200{AA}. These large EW candidates are spectroscopically confirmed at the same rate as candidates with more modest EWs.

Description:
We present optical spectroscopy of two samples of Galaxy Evolution Explorer grism selected Ly{alpha} emitters (LAEs): one at z=0.195-0.44 and the other at z=0.65-1.25. We have also observed a comparison sample of galaxies in the same redshift intervals with the same UV magnitude distributions but with no detected Ly{alpha}. We use the optical spectroscopy to eliminate active galactic nuclei and to obtain the optical emission-line properties of the samples. We compare the luminosities of the LAEs in the two redshift intervals and show that there is dramatic evolution in the maximum Ly{alpha} luminosity over z=0-1. Focusing on the z=0.195-0.44 samples alone, we show that there are tightly defined relations between all of the galaxy parameters and the rest-frame equivalent width (EW) of H{alpha}. The higher EW(H{alpha}) sources all have lower metallicities, bluer colors, smaller sizes, and less extinction, consistent with their being in the early stages of the galaxy formation process.

LAEs discovered with ultra-deep MUSE sp. in UDF

Description:
Using an ultra-deep blind survey with the MUSE integral field spectrograph on the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope, we obtain spectroscopic redshifts to a depth never before explored: galaxies with observed magnitudes m_AB_>~30-32. Specifically, we detect objects via Ly{alpha} emission at 2.9<z<6.7 without individual continuum counterparts in areas covered by the deepest optical/near-infrared imaging taken by the Hubble Space Telescope, the Hubble Ultra Deep Field. In total, we find 102 such objects in 9 square arcminutes at these redshifts. Detailed stacking analyses confirm the Ly{alpha} emission as well as the 1216 {AA} breaks and faint ultraviolet continua (M_UV_~-15). This makes them the faintest spectroscopically confirmed objects at these redshifts, similar to the sources believed to reionize the universe. A simple model for the expected fraction of detected/undetected Ly{alpha} emitters as a function of luminosity is consistent with these objects being the high-equivalent width tail of the normal Ly{alpha}-emitter population at these redshifts.

Description:
Reverberation mapping (RM) measurements of broad-line region (BLR) lags in z>0.3 quasars are important for directly measuring black hole masses in these distant objects, but so far there have been limited attempts and success given the practical difficulties of RM in this regime. Here we report preliminary results of 15 BLR lag measurements from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping (SDSS-RM) project, a dedicated RM program with multi-object spectroscopy designed for RM over a wide redshift range. The lags are based on the 2014 spectroscopic light curves alone (32 epochs over six months) and focus on the H{beta} and Mg II broad lines in the 100 lowest-redshift (z<0.8) quasars included in SDSS-RM; they represent a small subset of the lags that SDSS-RM (including 849 quasars to z~4.5) is expected to deliver. The reported preliminary lag measurements are for intermediate-luminosity quasars at 0.3<~z<0.8, including nine H{beta} lags and six Mg II lags, for the first time extending RM results to this redshift-luminosity regime and providing direct quasar black hole mass estimates over approximately half of cosmic time. The Mg II lags also increase the number of known Mg II lags by several fold and start to explore the utility of Mg II for RM at high redshift. The location of these new lags at higher redshifts on the observed BLR size-luminosity relationship is statistically consistent with previous H{beta} results at z<0.3. However, an independent constraint on the relationship slope at z>0.3 is not yet possible owing to the limitations in our current sample. Our results demonstrate the general feasibility and potential of multi-object RM for z>0.3 quasars.

Description:
The Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) is a Chinese national scientific research facility operated by the National Astronomical Observatories, Chinese Academy of Sciences. It is a special reflecting Schmidt telescope with 4000 fibers in a field of view of 20 deg22in the sky. Until July 2016, LAMOST has completed its pilot survey which was launched in October 2011 and ended in June 2012, and the first four years of regular survey which was initiated on September 2012. After this five-year-survey, we totally obtain 7,617,035 spectra, which consist of stars, galaxies, quasars and other unknown objects. Now, the fourth data release (DR4) has published online (http://dr4.lamost.org/), and released data products include 1. Spectra. - In general, there are 7,617,035 flux- and wavelength-calibrated, sky-subtracted spectra in DR4, including 6,943,865 stars, 117,254 galaxies, 36,575 quasars, and 519,341 unknown objects, and these spectra cover the wavelength range of 3690-9100 angstrom with a resolution of 1800 at the 5500 angstrom. 2. Spectroscopic Parameters Catalogs. - In this data release, six spectroscopic parameters catalogs are also published, they are the LAMOST general catalog, the A, F, G and K type star catalog, the A type star catalog, the M dwarf catalog, the observed plate information catalog, and the input catalog respectively. For the first four catalogs, they all include 36 columns of basic spectroscopic information, for example, right ascension, declination, signal to noise ratio, magnitude, classification and redshift. Also, the A type star catalog publish line indices of six spectral lines and four balmer line widths at 20% below the local continua, the A, F, G and K type star catalog provides effective temperature, surface gravity, and metallicity, and the M dwarf catalog releases the equivalent width of Halpha line, ten line indices, one metallicity sensitive parameter and a flag that indicates whether or not exist magnetic activity. For the observed plate information catalog, it mainly contains nine basic plate information for all published plates. At last, the input catalog includes 24 basic fields mentioned above, and three new fields which are not included in the above catalogs.

Description:
The Large sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) general survey is a spectroscopic survey that will eventually cover approximately half of the celestial sphere and collect 10 million spectra of stars, galaxies and QSOs. Objects in both the pilot survey and the first year regular survey are included in the LAMOST DR1. The pilot survey started in October 2011 and ended in June 2012, and the data have been released to the public as the LAMOST Pilot Data Release in August 2012. The regular survey started in September 2012, and completed its first year of operation in June 2013. The LAMOST DR1 includes a total of 1202 plates containing 2955336 spectra, of which 1790879 spectra have observed signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)>=10. All data with SNR>=2 are formally released as LAMOST DR1 under the LAMOST data policy. This data release contains a total of 2204696 spectra, of which 1944329 are stellar spectra, 12082 are galaxy spectra and 5017 are quasars. The DR1 not only includes spectra, but also three stellar catalogs with measured parameters: late A,FGK-type stars with high quality spectra (1061918 entries), A-type stars (100073 entries), and M-type stars (121522 entries). This paper introduces the survey design, the observational and instrumental limitations, data reduction and analysis, and some caveats. A description of the FITS structure of spectral files and parameter catalogs is also provided.
