“…The deep near-IR imagery of a dozen Galactic PNe was carried out using the Wide-field InfraRed Camera (WIRCam; Puget et al 2004) on the 3.6 m CFHT in 2012 August (program ID 12AS98). The wide-field imager WIRCam is composed of four HAWAII2-RG detectors (each 2048× 2048 pixels) and covers a total field of view (FoV) of 20′×20′ with a pixel scale of 0 3.…”

“…We obtain the H 2 image taken with the Wide-field Infrared Camera (WIRCAM, Puget et al 2004) on the 3.6-m Canada France Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) from the Canadian Astronomy Data Centre (CADC). The observations were done on 2006 April 14 (PI: S. Kwok, Prop.…”

“…During the last ten years, major advances have been made in the quest of the first galaxies in our universe, thanks to the commissioning of new facilities such as the WFC3/Hubble Space Telescope (HST) (Windhorst et al 2011), WIRCam/CFHT (Puget et al 2004), MOSFIRE/Keck (McLean et al 2012) or X-Shooter/VLT (Vernet et al 2011), and the arrival of extremely deep surveys, e.g., the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (Beckwith et al 2006), the Cluster Lensing And Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH- Postman et al 2012), or the Brightest of Reionizing Galaxies Survey (BoRG- Trenti et al 2011). Among all the results achieved, one can mention the great leap forward in the number of  z 6.5 sources known that count in several hundreds atz 7 Oesch et al 2010c;Schenker et al 2013), hundreds atz 8 (Bradley et al 2012;Yan et al 2012;Labbé et al 2013) and dozens at  z 8.5 Oesch et al 2014), with the most distant spectroscopically confirmed galaxy at z = 8.68 (Zitrin et al 2015b) and the highest photometrically selected galaxy atz 11 (Coe et al 2013).…”
