摘要:

我们提出的结果,从应用程序的二维发射线检测方法,发射线二维(EM 2D),近红外G102棱镜观测获得的宽视场相机3(WFC 3)的第22周期{ \em哈勃太空望远镜}国库计划的一部分:弱红外棱镜调查(图)。使用EM 2D方法,我们已经组装了一个目录的发射线星系(ELG)与解决恒星形成的四个FIGS领域。不仅可以更好地评估ELG的整体性能,但EM 2D方法允许的分析和改进的研究的个别发射线区域{ \it内}每个星系。本文包括方法的描述,优点,和EM 2D方法应用于ELG的第一个结果,在图1和图2中。二维发射线测量的优势包括星系红移测量的显著改进,接近高光谱分辨率数据中看到的准确度,但效率更高;以及识别和测量多个恒星形成地点的特性和单个星系内$\sim$ 1 kpc到z $\sim$ 4的尺度的能力。EM 2D方法还显著提高了高红移($z\sim7$)莱曼- $α$探测的可靠性。再加上宽视场和高效率的天基棱镜观测,EM 2D提供了一个值得注意的改进的物理参数,可以从棱镜观测提取。

英文摘要:

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.
