The HETDEX Pilot Survey. III. The Low Metallicities Of High-Redshift Ly Alpha Galaxies
(2011-03)
We present the results of Keck/NIRSPEC spectroscopic observations of three Ly alpha emitting galaxies (LAEs) at z similar to 2.3 discovered with the HETDEX pilot survey. We detect H alpha, [OIII], and H beta emission from ...
The Spectrally Resolved Lyman-Alpha Emission Of Three Lyman-Alpha-Selected Field Galaxies At Z Similar To 2.4 From The HETDEX Pilot Survey
(2013-10)
We present new results on the spectrally resolved Ly alpha emission of three Ly alpha-emitting field galaxies at z similar to 2.4 with high Lya equivalent width (> 100 angstrom) and Lya luminosity (similar to 10(43) erg ...
The HETDEX Pilot Survey. IV. The Evolution Of O II Emitting Galaxies From Z Similar To 0.5 To Z Similar To 0
(2013-05)
We present an analysis of the luminosities and equivalent widths of the 284 z < 0.56 [O II]-emitting galaxies found in the 169 arcmin(2) pilot survey for the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX). By ...
The Spatially Resolved Star Formation Law From Integral Field Spectroscopy: Virus-P Observations Of NGC 5194
(2009-10)
We investigate the relation between the star formation rate (SFR) surface density (Sigma(SFR)) and the mass surface density of gas (Sigma(gas)) in NGC 5194 (a.k.a. M51a, Whirlpool Galaxy). Visible Integral field Replicable ...
The Virus-P Exploration Of Nearby Galaxies (Venga): The X-Co Gradient In NGC 628
(2013-02)
We measure the radial profile of the (CO)-C-12(1-0) to H-2 conversion factor (X-CO) in NGC 628. The H alpha emission from the VENGA integral field spectroscopy is used to map the star formation rate (SFR) surface density ...
The HETDEX Pilot Survey. II. The Evolution Of The Ly Alpha Escape Fraction From The Ultraviolet Slope And Luminosity Function Of 1.9 < Z < 3.8 Laes
(2011-07)
We study the escape of Ly alpha photons from Ly alpha emitting galaxies (LAEs) and the overall galaxy population using a sample of 99 LAEs at 1.9 < z < 3.8 detected through integral-field spectroscopy of blank fields by ...
The HETDEX Pilot Survey. V. The Physical Origin Of Ly Alpha Emitters Probed By Near-Infrared Spectroscopy
(2014-08)
We present the results from a Very Large Telescope/SINFONI and Keck/NIRSPEC near-infrared spectroscopic survey of 16 Ly alpha emitters (LAEs) at z = 2.1-2.5 in the COSMOS and GOODS-N fields discovered from the Hobby Eberly ...
The VIRUS-P Exploration Of Nearby Galaxies (VENGA): Survey Design, Data Processing, And Spectral Analysis Methods
(2013-05)
We present the survey design, data reduction, and spectral fitting pipeline for the VIRUS-P Exploration of Nearby Galaxies (VENGA). VENGA is an integral field spectroscopic survey, which maps the disks of 30 nearby spiral ...
Spectral Energy Distribution Fitting Of HETDEX Pilot Survey Ly Alpha Emitters In Cosmos And GOODS-N
(2014-05)
We use broadband photometry extending from the rest-frame UV to the near-IR to fit the individual spectral energy distributions of 63 bright (L(Ly alpha) > 10(43) erg s(-1)) Ly alpha emitting galaxies (LAEs) in the redshift ...
The HETDEX Pilot Survey. I. Survey Design, Performance, and Catalog of Emission-Line Galaxies
(2011-01)
We present a catalog of emission-line galaxies selected solely by their emission-line fluxes using awide-field integral field spectrograph. This work is partially motivated as a pilot survey for the upcoming Hobby-Eberly ...
