COSMOS field Ly{alpha} emitters at z~5.7

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present results from a narrow-band optical survey of a contiguous area of 1.95deg^2^, covered by the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS).

Description

Both optical narrow-band ({lambda}c=8150{AA} and {delta}{lambda}=120{AA}) and broad-band (B, V, g', r', i', and z') imaging observations were performed with the Subaru prime-focus camera, Suprime-Cam on the Subaru Telescope. We provide the largest contiguous narrow-band survey, targeting Ly{alpha} emitters (LAEs) at z~5.7.

We find a total of 119 LAE candidates at z~5.7. Over the wide-area covered by this survey, we find no strong evidence for large-scale clustering of LAEs. We estimate a star formation rate (SFR) density of ~7x10-4M_{sun}_/yr/Mpc^3^ for LAEs at z~5.7 and compare it with previous measurements.
