  5. "3D" Spectroscopy Previously used a "long slit" in spectroscopy - cut down background light, become more sensitiveRelatively new technique - integral field spectroscopy - arrange elements to survey a 2D area (rather than a 1D line)The spectra gives a 3rd dimension (wavelength, or velocity)

  6. Cambridge IR Panoramic Survey Spectrograph Integral Field Spectroscopy

  7. What is CIRPASS? • Near-infrared integral field unit (spectra over a 2D area) • Built by the IoA with support of Sackler foundation & PPARC • Wavelengths 0.9-1.8mm (z, J, H): doubles range of Gemini IFU science • 490 spatial samples & variable image scales 0.05"-0.33" up to 5"x12" field • Large wavelength coverage (Dl=2200Å) at R~4000: great sensitivity between OH sky lines • Limiting line flux on an 8m ~2x10-18 ergs/sec/cm^2 (53 hours) • Successfully demonstrated in August 2002 on Gemini-South telescope, community access 2003A 500 fibres IFU Instrument cryostat On dome floor

  24. Galaxy Kinematics at High Redshift:Why do we care? - For disk galaxies, velocity at flat part of rotation curve correlates with the stellar mass of the galaxy (I- or K-band) - the Tully Fisher relation-How does this scaling relation evolve with time?- In "classical" model, dark halo forms first, and disk forms later: M/L decreases with time.-So circular velocity at a fixed stellar mass less in the past- BUT in hierarchical assembly, make galaxies through mergers, so stellar mass vs. circular velocity follows same relation over a wide range of redshifts- Can test this through rotation curves of z~1 galaxies- Use rest-optical lines redshifted into near-infrared- IFUs ideal - no uncertainty of slit axis vs. galaxy axis

  25. Emission lines ⇒ Star formation rates, metallicity, dust extinction, kinematics

  30. Extended Ly- , narrow (FWHM~1000km/s) Central QSO (solid line)broad Ly- Recombination line probably powered by reprocessed QSO UV flux rather than by local star formation. Extended narrow Ly- (dashed line),no continuum The HI cloud of the host galaxy is ~>35kpc/h70 (=0.3)

  31. SPH simulations, distribution of neutral gas at z~3 (from Katz et al. and Rauch, Haehnelt & Steinmetz). Left box is 22Mpc comoving, 15arcmin; right zoomed x10

  32. The catch: very faint low surface brightness Wavelength/Å The deepest spectrum in the Universe?

  33. Rauch, Haehnelt, Bunker, Becker et al. (2007) Win with IFUs rather than long-slit: MUSE?

  34. DAZLE - Dark Ages 'z' Lyman-alpha Explorer (IoA - Richard McMahon, Ian Parry; AAO - Joss Bland-Hawthorne

  35. "Lyman break technique" - sharp drop in flux at below Ly-. Steidel et al. have >1000 z~3 objects, "drop" in U-band. Pushing to higher redshift- Finding Lyman break galaxies at z~6 : using i-drops.

  36. The Star Formation History of the Univese Bunker, Stanway, z=5.8 Ellis, McMahon & McCarthy (2003) Keck/DEIMOS spectral follow-up & confirmation I-drops in the Chandra Deep Field South with HST/ACS Elizabeth Stanway, Andrew Bunker, Richard McMahon 2003 (MNRAS)

  37. Galaxies at z~6 are small - barely resolved by HST. E-ELT diffraction limit ~0.01” (~50-100pc). See individual HII regions?

  38. What is JWST? • 6.55 m deployable primary • Diffraction-limited at 2 µm • Wavelength range 0.6-28 µm • Passively cooled to <50 K • Zodiacal-limited below 10 µm • Sun-Earth L2 orbit • 4 instruments • 0.6-5 µm wide field camera (NIRCam) • 1-5 µm multiobject spectrometer (NIRSpec) • 5-28 µm camera/spectrometer (MIRI) • 0.8-5 µm guider camera (FGS/TF) • 5 year lifetime, 10 year goal • 2014 launch

  39. NASA/ESA/CSA - JWST • NIRSpec • ESA near-IR MOS to 5um, 3’x3’ • NIRCAM - 3’x3’ imager <5um • FGS (Canada) - has tunable 1% narrow-band NIR filters in • MIRI - mid-infrared Europe/US (closely similar to HST model…)

  40. NIRSpec IST

  41. Absorption lines at z>5 - a single v. bright Lyman break z=5.5 galaxy, Dow-Hygelund et al (2005), AB=23-24, VLT spectrum (22 hours), R~3000; S/N=3-10 at R=1000,2700 in 1000sec NIRSpec

  42. E-ELT

  43. For I-drops (z~6) would only get ~1 per NIRSpec field bright enough for S/N~3-10 in continuum in 1000sec for abs line studies

  44. Does AO Help you? • If Ly-alpha is compact, AO will boost point-source sensitivity • - Unclear if this will be the case - extended Ly-alpha haloes known, and expected through resonant scattering (see the far edge of the ionized bubble) • -For morphological analysis, unclear that high-tech ELT AO is better than a poorer but better-quantified PSF (e.g. from space) • -If you can’t quantify where 10-20% of the light goes from a centrally-condensed core, that’s the difference between a disk and bulge morphology when fitting Sersic index • -Even worse when looking for QSO host galaxies…

  45. Conclusions • - 3D IFU spectroscopy at high redshift is (finally) realising its potential, but still small sample sizes • -Important as a probe of galaxy kinematics, and spatially-resolved maps of stellar populations, metallicity • - Trace the evolution of the assembly of stellar mass • -Explore the nature of gravitational lenses (dark matter) • - Explore the nature of the galaxies responsible for QSO absorption lines • -In future might see fluorescence of the HI gas • -Compact galaxies at high-z: need AO on ELTs to get real IFU benefit
