A Census of the Bright z = 8.5–11 Universe with the Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescopes in the CANDELS Fields

Abstract: We present the results from a new search for candidate galaxies at z ≈ 8.5–11 discovered over the 850 arcmin2 area probed by the Cosmic Assembly Near-Infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS). We use a photometric-redshift selection including both Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescope photometry to robustly identify galaxies in this epoch at H 160 < 26.6. We use a detailed vetting procedure, including screening against persistence and stellar contamination, and the inclusion of grou… Show more

“…We obtained Keck/MOSFIRE J-band spectroscopic followup targeting Lyα from a sample of candidate z = 9-10 galaxies recently published by Finkelstein et al (2022), discovered in the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS; Grogin et al 2011;Koekemoer et al 2011). The full details of their selection are discussed in Finkelstein et al (2022), but, in brief, these galaxies were selected as those with significant (>7σ) photometric detections, with photometric redshifts that were strongly constrained to be at z > 8.…”

Finkelstein et al (2022) detailed several vetting procedures done to ensure the robustness of the sample, culminating in a sample of 14 initial z = 9-10 candidates, which were honed to 11 robust candidates following the inclusion of ground-based imaging and additional Hubble Space Telescope (HST) F098M and F140W imaging to rule out low-redshift solutions.…”
