Lyman Alpha Emitters in Hierarchical Galaxy Formation Ii. Uv Continuum Luminosity Function and Equivalent Width Distribution

We present theoretical predictions of UV continuum luminosity function (UV LF) and Lyα equivalent width (EW) distribution of Lyman alpha emitters (LAEs) in the framework of the hierarchical clustering model of galaxy formation. The model parameters about LAEs were determined by fitting to the observed Lyα LF at z = 5.7 in our previous study, and the fit indicates that extinction of Lyα photons ...

Keck Deep Fields. Ii. the Ultraviolet Galaxy Luminosity Function

We use very deepUnGRImultifield imaging obtained at the Keck telescope to study the evolution of the rest-frame 1700 8 galaxy luminosity function as the universe doubles its age from z 4 to 2. We use exactly the same filters and color-color selection as those used by the Steidel team but probe significantly fainter limits, well below L . The depth of our imaging allows us to constrain the faint...

On the dependence between UV luminosity and Lyα equivalent width in high redshift galaxies

We show that with the simple assumption of no correlation between the Lyα equivalent width and the UV luminosity of a galaxy, the observed distribution of high redshift galaxies in an equivalent width – absolute UV magnitude plane can be reproduced. We further show that there is no dependence between Lyα equivalent width and Lyα luminosity in a sample of Lyα emitters. The test was expanded to L...

Reionization and Galaxy Evolution Probed by Z = 7 Lyα Emitters

We made a narrowband NB973 (bandwidth of 200Å centered at 9755Å) imaging of the Subaru Deep Field (SDF) and found two z = 7 Lyα emitter (LAE) candidates down to NB973 = 24.9. Carrying out deep follow-up spectroscopy, we identified one of them as a real z = 6.96 LAE. This has established a new redshift record, showing that galaxy formation was in progress just 750 Myr after the Big Bang. Meanwhi...

Differential Density Statistics of Galaxy Distribution and the Luminosity Function

This paper uses data obtained from the galaxy luminosity function (LF) to calculate two types of radial number densities statistics of the galaxy distribution as discussed in Ribeiro (2005), namely the differential density γ and the integral differential density γ. By applying the theory advanced by Ribeiro and Stoeger (2003), which connects the relativistic cosmology number counts with the ast...
