Spheroidals and bulge dominated galaxies

We present a comprehensive catalog of high signal-to-noise ratio spectra obtained with DEIMOS on the Keck II telescope for a sample of F850LP<22.43mag(AB) field spheroidal (E+S0 galaxies; 165) and bulge-dominated disk (61) galaxies in the redshift range 0.2<z<1.2, selected on the basis of visual morphology from the northern field of the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS-N). We discuss sample selection, photometric properties, and spectral reduction.

We derive scale lengths, surface brightnesses, and photometric inhomogeneities from the ACS data and redshifts, stellar velocity dispersions, and [OII] and H{delta} equivalent widths from the Keck spectroscopy. Using the published 2Ms Chandra Deep Field-North X-ray catalog (Cat. <J/AJ/126/632>), we identify active galactic nuclei (AGNs) to clarify the origin of emission lines seen in the Keck spectra.
