KISS H{alpha}-selected survey list 3

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The KPNO International Spectroscopic Survey (KISS) is an objective-prism survey designed to detect extragalactic emission-line objects.

Description

It combines many of the features of previous slitless spectroscopic surveys with the advantages of modern CCD detectors and is the first purely digital objective-prism survey for emission-line galaxies (ELGs). Here we present the third list of ELG candidates selected from our red spectral data, which cover the wavelength range 6400-7200{AA}.

In most cases, the detected emission line is H{alpha}. The current survey list covers the region of the NOAO Deep Wide Field Survey (NDWFS). This survey covers two fields; the first is 3{deg}x3{deg} and located at RA=14h30m, DE=34{deg}30' (B1950.0), and the second is 2.3{deg}x4.0{deg} and centered at RA=2h7m30s, DE=-4{deg}44'.

A total area of 19.65deg^2^ is covered by the KISS data. A total of 261 candidate emission-line objects have been selected for inclusion in the survey list (13.3deg^-2^). We tabulate accurate coordinates and photometry for each source, as well as estimates of the redshift, emission-line flux, and line equivalent width based on measurements of the digital objective-prism spectra.

The properties of the KISS ELGs are examined using the available observational data.
