TL;DR: The first space-based open field survey for supernovae (SNe) was conducted by the Hubble Higher-z Supernova Search (HSSSS) as discussed by the authors, which used the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACF) to cover 300 square arcmin in the area of the Chandra Deep Field South and the Hubble Deep Field North on five separate search epochs (separated by 45 day intervals).
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on observations of Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) selected from the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey at mean redshifts z ~ 4, 5, and 6 (B 435, V 606-, and i 775-band dropouts, respectively), obtained with the red-sensitive FORS2 spectrograph at the ESO VLT.

The Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey: Constraints on the Lyman Continuum Escape Fraction Distribution of Lyman-break Galaxies at 3.4 < z < 4.5

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used ultra-deep ultraviolet VLT/VIMOS intermediate-band and VLT-FORS1 narrowband imaging in the GOODS Southern field to derive limits on the distribution of the escape fraction (f{sub esc}) of ionizing radiation for L {>=} L*{sub z=3} Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) at redshift 3.4-4.5.
