Science objectives for the Next Generation Space Telescope (NGST) include a large component of galaxy surveys, both imaging and spectroscopy. The Hubble Deep Field datasets include the deepest observations ever made in the ultraviolet,…
Deep radio observations of a wide region centred on the Hubble Deep Field South have been performed, providing one of the most sensitive set of radio observations acquired on the Australia Telescope Compact Array to date. A central rms of…
We present the galaxy-galaxy angular correlations as a function of photometric redshift in a deep-wide galaxy survey centered on the Hubble Deep Field South. Images were obtained with the Big Throughput Camera on the Blanco 4m telescope at…
Using the 850 micron SCUBA camera on the JCMT and a scanning technique different from other sub-mm surveys, we have obtained a 125 square arcminute map centered on the Hubble Deep Field. The one-sigma sensitivity to point sources is roughly…
We study the evolution of the galaxy UV luminosity density as a function of redshift in the Hubble Deep Field North (HDF-N). We estimate the amount of energy absorbed by dust and hidden from optical observations by analyzing the HDF-N…
Context: The gravitational lensing time delay method provides a one-step determination of the Hubble constant (H0) with an uncertainty level on par with the cosmic distance ladder method. However, to further investigate the nature of the…
We report on the initial results of a spectroscopic investigation of galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field which exhibit spectral discontinuities between the F450W and F300W passbands, indicative of the presence of the Lyman continuum break in…
Using the 100-m Green Bank Telescope, we have conducted a cm-wavelength search for CO J=1-0 line emission towards the high-redshift, far-infrared luminous object, HDF850.1 over the redshift interval 3.3<z<5.4. Despite the wealth of existing…
This white paper emphasizes the potential of QSO absorption lines in the rest-frame far/extreme UV at rest-frame wavelengths from ~500 to 2000 A. In this wavelength range, species such as Ne VIII, Na IX, and Mg X can be detected, providing…
The Hubble Space Telescope is the only high-resolution ultraviolet spectroscopic facility that will exist until the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) achieves first light in the mid-2040s. We describe a coherent class of science, coupling…
Baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) at low redshift provide a precise and largely model-independent way to measure the Hubble constant, H0. The 6dF Galaxy Survey measurement of the BAO scale gives a value of H0 = 67 +/- 3.2 km/s/Mpc,…
Risaliti and Lusso have compiled X-ray and UV flux measurements of 1598 quasars (QSOs) in the redshift range $0.036 \leq z \leq 5.1003$, part of which, $z \sim 2.4 - 5.1$, is largely cosmologically unprobed. In this paper we use these QSO…
We report an optical detection of an extended structure around a QSO at z=6.43 (CFHQSJ2329-0301, the highest redshift QSO currently known) in deep z' and z_r-band images of the Subaru/Suprime-Cam. After a careful PSF (QSO) subtraction, a…
We are currently undertaking a large survey for redshifted atomic and molecular absorption ... only one clear and one tentative detection were obtained: HI absorption at z = 0.097 in PKS 1555-140 and OH absorption at z =0.126 in PKS…
The Hubble parameter ($H(z)$) is a function of the redshift and a reliable measurement is very important to understand the expansion history of the Universe. In this work, we perform full-spectrum fitting using BAGPIPES on more than four…
We have used the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope to detect HI 21cm absorption at $z \sim 0.7645$ in the gravitational lens system towards PMN J0134-0931. The 21cm profile has two broad components, with peak optical depths of $0.047 \pm…
Compact symmetric objects (CSOs) are thought to be short-lived radio sources with two lobes of emission that are separated by less than a kpc in projection. However, studies of such systems at high redshift is challenging due to the limited…
The Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey provides significant constraints on the space density of less luminous QSOs at high redshift, which is particularly important to understand the interplay between the formation of galaxies and…
We have analyzed the spectrum of the quasar PKS 1232+082 obtained by Petitjean et al. (2000). HD molecular lines are identified in an absorption system at the redshift z=2.3377. The column density of HD molecules in the system is estimated,…
We present progress results of a new survey for bright QSOs (V<14.5, R<15.4, B_J<15.2) covering the whole sky at |b|>30. The surface density of QSOs brighter than B_J=14.8 turns out to be $2.9 \pm 0.8 \cdot 10^{-3} deg^{-2}$. The optical…
