LAEs discovered with ultra-deep MUSE sp. in UDF
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
Using an ultra-deep blind survey with the MUSE integral field spectrograph on the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope, we obtain spectroscopic redshifts to a depth never before explored: galaxies with observed magnitudes m_AB_>~30-32.
Description
Specifically, we detect objects via Ly{alpha} emission at 2.9<z<6.7 without individual continuum counterparts in areas covered by the deepest optical/near-infrared imaging taken by the Hubble Space Telescope, the Hubble Ultra Deep Field.
In total, we find 102 such objects in 9 square arcminutes at these redshifts. Detailed stacking analyses confirm the Ly{alpha} emission as well as the 1216 {AA} breaks and faint ultraviolet continua (M_UV_~-15). This makes them the faintest spectroscopically confirmed objects at these redshifts, similar to the sources believed to reionize the universe.

A simple model for the expected fraction of detected/undetected Ly{alpha} emitters as a function of luminosity is consistent with these objects being the high-equivalent width tail of the normal Ly{alpha}-emitter population at these redshifts.
