Issue Date: | 2016 | Volume: | From the Realm of the Nebulae to Populations of Galaxies | Series: | ASTROPHYSICS AND SPACE SCIENCE LIBRARY | Number: | 435 | First Page: | 479 | Abstract: | Some contributions in Chap. 1 have highlighted the impact of the discovery in the 1960s of a handful of radio galaxies and Quasars in the redshift range z ∼ 0.2-0.4. About 40 years later, at the end of the twentieth Century, the systematic exploration of galaxies reached z ∼ 1-3. The combination of HST deep imaging and the coming into operation of the 8-10 m class telescopes with their spectroscopic capabilities, move ahead the limits. At the same time, astronomers greatly improved their strategies to hunt high-redshift galaxies. Today, it is not infrequent the spectroscopic confirmation of galaxies at z ∼ 7-8, pushing the detection limits more or less to the end of the re-ionization era. The gauntlet to observe the so called "first galaxies", i.e. those assembling during the first billion years of the cosmic time, is throw down. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/26590 | URL: | https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007%2F978-3-319-31006-0_6 | ISBN: | 978-3-319-31004-6 | DOI: | 10.1007/978-3-319-31006-0_6 | Bibcode ADS: | 2016ASSL..435..479R | Fulltext: | reserved |
