The Subaru FMOS Galaxy Redshift Survey (FastSound). II. The emission line catalog and properties of emission line galaxies
We present basic properties of ∼3,300 emission line galaxies detected by the FastSound survey, which are mostly Hα emitters at z ∼ 1.2–1.5 in the total area of about 20 deg2 , with the Hα flux sensitivity limit of ∼ 1.6 × 10−16 erg cm−2 s −1 at 4.5 sigma. This paper presents the catalogs of the Fast...

description | We present basic properties of ∼3,300 emission line galaxies detected by the FastSound survey, which are mostly Hα emitters at z ∼ 1.2–1.5 in the total area of about 20 deg2 , with the Hα flux sensitivity limit of ∼ 1.6 × 10−16 erg cm−2 s −1 at 4.5 sigma. This paper presents the catalogs of the FastSound emission lines and galaxies, which is open to the public. We also present basic properties of typical FastSound Hα emitters, which have Hα luminosities of 1041.8–1043.3 erg/s, SFRs of 20–500 M⊙/yr, and stellar masses of 1010.0–1011.3 M⊙. The 3D distribution maps for the four fields of CFHTLS W1–4 are presented, clearly showing large scale clustering of galaxies at the scale of ∼ 100–600 comoving Mpc. Based on 1,105 galaxies with detections of multiple emission lines, we estimate that contamination of non-Hα lines is about 4% in the single-line emission galaxies, which are mostly [OIII]λ5007. This contamination fraction is also confirmed by the stacked spectrum of all the FastSound spectra, in which Hα, [NII]λλ6548,6583, [SII]λλ6717,6731, and [OI]λλ6300,6364 are seen. |
