We present the results from the application of a two-dimensional emission line detection method, EMission-line two-Dimensional (EM2D), to the near-infrared G102 grism observations obtained with the Wide-Field Camera 3 (WFC3) as part of the Cycle 22 {\em Hubble Space Telescope} Treasury Program: the Faint Infrared Grism Survey (FIGS). Using the EM2D method, we have assembled a catalog of emission line galaxies (ELGs) with resolved star formation from each of the four FIGS fields. Not only can one better assess the global properties of ELGs, but the EM2D method allows for the analysis and an improved study of the individual emission-line region {\it within} each galaxy. This paper includes a description of the methodology, advantages, and the first results of the EM2D method applied to ELGs in FIGS. The advantage of 2D emission line measurements includes significant improvement of galaxy redshift measurements, approaching the level of accuracy seen in high-spectral-resolution data, but with greater efficiency; and the ability to identify and measure the properties of multiple sites of star-formation and over scales of $\sim$ 1 kpc within individual galaxies out to z $\sim$ 4. The EM2D method also significantly improves the reliability of high-redshift ($z\sim7$) Lyman-$α$ detections. Coupled with the wide field of view and high efficiency of space-based grism observations, EM2D provides a noteworthy improvement on the physical parameters that can be extracted from grism observations.
FIGS: Spectral fitting constraints on the star formation history of massive galaxies since Cosmic Noon
利用HST的ACS和WFC 3星系的双标架光学和近红外无缝光谱,对52个质量对数Ms>10.5的大质量星系样本的恒星星族性质进行了约束,得到了红移范围为0.5<z<2的恒星族分布。深度曝光(~100 ks)使我们能够将大质量星系的单个光谱定位到F160 W =22.5AB。我们的光谱拟合方法使用一组六个基础模型,适应每个观测的红移和光谱分辨率,并通过MCMC方法拟合基础模型的权重,包括潜在的尘埃衰减。我们的样本包括静止星系(19)和恒星形成星系(33)的混合分布。我们量化的年龄分布(Dt)的宽度,发现占主导地位的检索参数的方差根据主成分分析。人口参数遵循预期的趋势,随着质量的增加,年龄较大,和DT似乎弱反相关恒星质量,这表明一个更有效的恒星形成在大规模的结束。正如预期的那样,静态样本中相对恒星年龄(以宇宙源的年龄为单位测量)的红移依赖性拒绝了单一爆发(又名整体坍缩)的假设。每个星系内的径向颜色梯度也进行了探索,发现一个更广泛的分散在恒星形成的子样本,但没有决定性的趋势相对于人口参数。
