A serendipitous search for high-redshift Ly alpha emission: Two primeval galaxy candidates at z similar or equal to 3

In the course of our ongoing search for serendipitous high-redshift Lyα emission in deep archival Keck spectra, we discovered two very high equivalent width (Wobsλ ≳ 450 Å, 2 σ) Lyα emission-line candidates at z ∼ 3 in a moderate dispersion (λ/Δλ ≃ 1200) spectrogram. Both lines have low velocity dis...
