Sinfoni integral field spectroscopy of z ∼ 2 UV-selected galaxies: Rotation curves and dynamical evolution
We present ∼0″5 resolution near-infrared integral field spectroscopy of the Hα line emission of 14 z ∼ 2 UV-selected BM/BX galaxies, obtained with SINFONI at the ESO Very Large Telescope. The average Hα half-light radius is r1/2 ≈4 h70-1 kpc, and line emission is detected over ≳20 h70-1 kpc in sever...
