Chemo-Kinematic Survey of z ~ 1 Star Forming Galaxies using Keck OSIRIS LGS-AO
Abstract
We present first results from the Intermediate Redshift OSIRIS Chemo-Kinematic Survey (IROCKS) of z ~ 1 star forming galaxies (Mieda et al. in prep). We have targeted Hα and [NII] emission lines in J-band and have spatially resolved the galaxies at sub-kilo parsec scale. We have combined our sample with deep HST continuum images, and are able to reveal the dynamics, morphologies, metallicity distribution, emission-line diagnostics, and star formation rates of galaxies spanning this crucial z ~ 1 epoch.
