New Constraints on Cosmic Reionization from the 2012 Hubble Ultra Deep Field Campaign

TL;DR: The 2012 UDF12 campaign provided the best constraints to date on the abundance, luminosity distribution, and spectral properties of early star-forming galaxies as discussed by the authors, and the results of the UDF-12 campaign were used to infer redshift-dependent ultraviolet (UV) luminosity densities, reionization histories, and electron scattering optical depth evolution consistent with the available data.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Abundance of Star-Forming Galaxies in the Redshift Range 8.5 to 12: New Results from the 2012 Hubble Ultra Deep Field Campaign

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the results of the deepest search to date for star-forming galaxies beyond a redshift z~8.5 utilizing a new sequence of near-infrared Wide Field Camera 3 images of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field.
Journal ArticleDOI

KECK SPECTROSCOPY OF 3 < z < 7 FAINT LYMAN BREAK GALAXIES: THE IMPORTANCE OF NEBULAR EMISSION IN UNDERSTANDING THE SPECIFIC STAR FORMATION RATE AND STELLAR MASS DENSITY

TL;DR: In this article, the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of 92 spectroscopically confirmed galaxies in the redshift range 3.8 4 and 3.2 4 were investigated to quantify the contribution of nebular emission to broadband fluxes.
