High-redshift galaxies in the hubble deep field : colour selection and star formation history to z 4
Piero Madau,Henry C. Ferguson,Mark Dickinson,Mauro Giavalisco,Charles C. Steidel,Andrew S. Fruchter +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a sample of star-forming galaxies at 2 ≲z ≲ 4.5 was constructed from the Hubble Deep Field (HDF) images, which is 3 times higher than the local value but still 4 times lower than the rate observed at z ≈ 1.75.
Journal ArticleDOI

Walton +26 more
TL;DR: The most distant spectroscopically confirmed supernova was reported in this paper, and it was found to be similar to nearby type Ia supernovae, which suggests that we may live in a low-mass-density universe.
Journal ArticleDOI
A very energetic supernova associated with the |[gamma]|-ray burst of 29 March 2003

J. van den Heuvel,Paul Vreeswijk,Darach Watson,Ralph A. M. J. Wijers +27 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported evidence for a very energetic supernova (a hypernova), temporally and spatially coincident with a gamma-ray burst at redshift z=0.1685.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Hubble Deep Field: Observations, data reduction, and galaxy photometry
Robert Williams,Brett S. Blacker,Mark Dickinson,W. Van Dyke Dixon,W. Van Dyke Dixon,Henry C. Ferguson,Andrew S. Fruchter,Mauro Giavalisco,Mauro Giavalisco,Ronald L. Gilliland,Inge Heyer,Rocio Katsanis,Zolt Levay,Ray A. Lucas,Douglas B. McElroy,Douglas B. McElroy,Larry Petro,Marc Postman,Hans Martin Adorf,Richard Hook +19 more
TL;DR: The Hubble Deep Field (HDF) is a Director's Discretionary program on HST in Cycle 5 to image an undistinguished field at high Galactic latitude in four passbands as deeply as reasonably possible as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Drizzle: A Method for the Linear Reconstruction of Undersampled Images
Andrew S. Fruchter,Richard Hook +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a variable-pixel linear reconstruction (VPLR) method was proposed for linear reconstruction of an image from under-sampled, dithered data, which preserves photometry and resolution, weight input images according to the statistical significance of each pixel, and removes the effects of geometric distortion both on image shape and photometry.
