TL;DR: The first data release of the UltraVISTA near-infrared imaging survey of the COSMOS field is described in this paper, where stacked, sky-subtracted images in YJHK_s and narrow-band filters constructed from data collected during the first year of UltraVisTA observations are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution in the properties of Lyman-alpha emitters from redshifts z ~ 3 to z ~ 2
Kim K. Nilsson,Christian Tapken,Palle Moeller,Wolfram Freudling,Johan P. U. Fynbo,Klaus Meisenheimer,Peter Laursen,Goeran Oestlin +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the properties of 2.25 LAEs and compared them with those of z > 3 LAEs, showing that there has been significant evolution in LAEs between redshift z = 3 and z = 2.5.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Lyman-alpha blob in the GOODS South field: evidence for cold accretion onto a dark matter halo
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the most probable origin of the extended Ly-alpha emission from the blob in the GOODS South field is cold accretion onto a dark matter halo.
Journal ArticleDOI
A multi-wavelength study of z = 3.15 Lyman-alpha emitters in the GOODS South Field
Kim K. Nilsson,Palle Moeller,Ole Moeller,J. P. U. Fynbo,Michał J. Michałowski,Dan M. Watson,C. Ledoux,Piero Rosati,K. Pedersen,L. F. Grove +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the spectral energy distribution of Lyman break galaxies is studied at the 4 sigma level, and it is shown that the rest-frame UV SED of these galaxies is very similar to that of LBGs and comply with the selection criteria for U-band drop-out, except they are intrinsically fainter than the current limit for LBGs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mass–metallicity relation from z = 5 to the present: evidence for a transition in the mode of galaxy growth at z = 2.6 due to the end of sustained primordial gas infall
TL;DR: This article analyzed the redshift evolution of the mass-metallicity relation in a sample of 110 Damped Ly$\alpha$ absorbers and found that the zero-point of the correlation changes significantly with redshift.
