Fan had come to Princeton with the fixed goal of finding high-redshift quasars. From Wordnik.com. [A Grand and Bold Thing] Reference
What we did (effectively) was compare the slope of the low-redshift and high-redshift supernovae. From Wordnik.com. [Dark Energy Has Long Been Dark-Energy-Like] Reference
"The problem with high-redshift clusters is that it is difficult to determine exactly which galaxy lies at the centre of the cluster," says Leauthaud. From Wordnik.com. [Dark Matter in Distant Galaxy Groups Mapped for the First Time | Universe Today] Reference
The best way to test buggy pipelines was with real data—it was the way, after all, that Michael Strauss and Xiaohui Fan had found all those high-redshift quasars. From Wordnik.com. [A Grand and Bold Thing] Reference
Over the next few years, the Four-Shooter survey found one hundred high-redshift quasars, including a record setter at redshift 4.04, then one at 4.73, then another at 4.9. From Wordnik.com. [A Grand and Bold Thing] Reference
Future high-redshift OHM surveys can now be interpreted in a star formation and galaxy evolution context, indicating both the merging rate of galaxies and the burst contribution to star formation. From Wordnik.com. [A "Polar Ring" For Christmas… | Universe Today] Reference
In such high-redshift galaxies, the lines which have been targeted by traditional optical astronomy for decades get shifted to the near-IR region of the spectrum, and we then use the KeckII near-IR spectrograph (NIRSPEC) to measure them. From Wordnik.com. [Physicists at Work and Play] Reference
Multi-epoch imaging will provide an efficient search for high-redshift Type Ia SNe here also. From Wordnik.com. [SpaceRef Top Stories] Reference
Each WFC3 tile will be observed for 2 orbits, with single orbits separated in time to allow a search for high-redshift Type Ia SNe. From Wordnik.com. [SpaceRef Top Stories] Reference
To better understand the physical properties of high-redshift galaxies, we propose here to conduct HST/NICMOS (72 orbits) and Spitzer/IRAC. From Wordnik.com. [SpaceRef Top Stories] Reference
"That could have confused their software and caused them to get a lot of objects that just were not real high-redshift galaxies," he says. From Wordnik.com. [Scientific American] Reference
"The problem with low-mass, high-redshift clusters is that it is difficult to determine which exact galaxy lies at the center of the cluster," says Leauthaud. From Wordnik.com. [SpaceRef Top Stories] Reference
If these quasars were like the previously observed supernovae, an observer would expect to see longer, "stretched" timescales for the distant, "stretched" high-redshift quasars. From Wordnik.com. [Signs of the Times] Reference
GALEX All-Sky Imaging Survey and the SDSS to identify for the first time a rare population of low - redshift galaxies with properties remarkably similar to the high-redshift LBGs. From Wordnik.com. [SpaceRef Top Stories] Reference
Even so, Windhorst noted that two of the galaxies detected by Illingworth's team did not meet his team's criteria as high-redshift, and the third was not detected after the data were processed. From Wordnik.com. [Scientific American] Reference
These data will provide fresh new insights into the role of feedback from massive stars on the evolution of galaxies, and may also offer clues about the properties of the QSO metal absorption-line systems at high-redshift. From Wordnik.com. [SpaceRef Top Stories] Reference
He added that Illingworth's team "goes to great lengths to justify their candidates", although he is cautious because the camera detects high-redshift objects only in one filter, and because many such claims, including his, have been revisited by other groups with mixed results. From Wordnik.com. [Scientific American] Reference
This mission will conduct a step-wise, systematic investigation of star formation in the Milky Way, nearby galaxies and the high-redshift universe; the origin of the elements and cosmic structure; and the composition of and physical conditions in the extended atmospheres of extrasolar planets.
