Properties of emission-line galaxies

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We compare the physical and morphological properties of z~2 Ly{alpha} emitting galaxies (LAEs) identified in the HETDEX Pilot Survey and narrow band studies with those of z~2 optical emission line selected galaxies (oELGs) identified via HST WFC3 infrared grism spectroscopy.

Description

Both sets of galaxies extend over the same range in stellar mass (7.5<logM/M_{sun}_<10.5), size (0.5<R<3.0kpc), and star formation rate (~1<SFR<100M_{sun}_/yr).

Remarkably, a comparison of the most commonly used physical and morphological parameters - stellar mass, half-light radius, UV slope, SFR, ellipticity, nearest neighbor distance, star formation surface density, specific SFR, [OIII] luminosity, and [OIII] equivalent width - reveals no statistically significant differences between the populations.
