Searches for High Redshift Clusters
High redshift galaxy clusters have traditionally been a fruitful place to study galaxy evolution. I review various search strategies for finding clusters at z > 1. Most efforts to date have concentrated on the environments of distant AGN. I illustrate these with data on the cluster around 3C 324 (z = 1.2) and other, more distant systems, and discuss possibilities for future surveys with large t...
متن کاملCentimeter searches for molecular line emission from high-redshift galaxies
We consider the capabilities for detecting low order CO emission lines from high-redshift (z) galaxies using the next generation of radio telescopes operating at 22 and 43GHz. Low order CO emission studies provide critical insight into the nature of high redshift galaxies, including: (i) determining molecular gas masses, (ii) study of large scale structure through 3-dimensional redshift surveys...
متن کاملMolecular Absorption Lines at High Redshift
The four known molecular absorption line systems at redshifts z=0.25–0.89 are discussed. Two of the systems originate in the galaxy hosting the ‘background’ AGN, while in two cases the absorption occurs in truely intervening galaxies. Indirect evidence for the existence of very small scale structure in the molecular ISM is presented. A new absorption line at z=0.89 towards PKS1830–211 opens up ...
متن کاملSearches for High Redshift Radio Galaxies
We have started a search for High Redshift Radio Galaxies (HZRGs) in an area covering 7 sr by selecting a sample of Ultra Steep Spectrum (USS) sources with a low flux density cut-off S1400 > 10 mJy and a steep spectral index cut-off of α < −1.3 (S ∝ ν) from the WENSS, NVSS and TEXAS surveys. Our first results for 27 sources show that we are almost twice as effective in finding HZRGs than than s...
متن کاملNear-Infrared Emission Line Searches for High-Redshift Galaxies
In this article I review recent developments in near-infrared emission line searches for star-forming galaxies at high redshift. Using the J-, H& K-bands we can potentially chart the history of star formation over the range 1 < z < 5 using the prominent rest-optical nebular emission lines alone, filling in the “redshift desert” at z ∼ 1 − 3 where most common emission lines lie outside the optic...
