Ly{alpha} emitters at z~4.86

We find 79 Ly{alpha} emitter (LAE) candidates at z~4.86 over a contiguous survey area of 1.83deg^2^, down to the Ly{alpha} line flux of 1.47x10^-17^erg/s/cm^2^.

We obtain the Ly{alpha} luminosity function with a best-fit Schechter parameters of log L*=42.9^+0.5^_-0.3_erg/s and {Phi}*=1.2^+8.0^_-1.1_x10^-4^Mpc^-3^ for {alpha}=-1.5 (fixed). The two-point correlation function for our LAE sample is {xi}(r)=(r/4.4^+5.7^_-2.9_Mpc)^-1.90+/-0.22^. In order to investigate the field-to-field variations of the properties of Ly{alpha} emitters, we divide the survey area into nine tiles of 0.5x0.5{deg} each.
