Abstract: The Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) is designed to probe the correlated evolution of galaxies, star formation, active galactic nuclei (AGNs), and dark matter (DM) with large-scale structure (LSS) over the redshift range z > 0:5Y 6. The survey includes multiwavelength imaging and spectroscopy from X-rayYtoYradio wavelengths covering a 2 deg 2 area, including HST imaging. Given the very high sensitivity and resolution of these data sets, COSMOS also provides unprecedented samples of objects at high redshift wit… Show more

“…Although the former is less precise and less reliable, the increase of available multi-wavelength coverage in deep extragalactic fields (e.g. as in the COSMOS field; Scoville et al, 2007) has made photometric redshifts increasingly reliable (e.g. Ilbert et al, 2009) and much less observationally expensive than obtaining spectroscopic redshifts.…”

“…The sample consists of nine star-forming LBGs at one to four times the characteristic luminosity (L * ) and one lowluminosity quasar (HZ5) observed at 5<z<6 in the 2 square-degree field of the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COS-MOS; Scoville et al 2007), 8 which provides a multitude of photometric data (Laigle et al 2016). The 10 galaxies are initially selected by a range of techniques and designed to be complete in quantities and are followed up with the Deep Extragalactic Imaging Multi-Object Spectrograph (DEIMOS; Faber et al 2003) to confirm their redshifts spectroscopically via the rest-frame UV absorption features.…”
