Continuing to Push into the Early Universe with CANDELS
Abstract
While the high-redshift component of the CANDELS survey was designed with the z~6-8 era in mind, these data do probe the far-UV of galaxies at even higher redshift. A few studies have ventured this far out, and have published conflicting results - some continue to find significant star-formation, while others conclude there is a steep decline in this quantity. I will report on a new search for z=9-10 galaxies, making significant use of the Spitzer/IRAC data in the CANDELS fields. We have discovered a larger number of galaxies in this epoch than previous works, implying the SFR density may be higher than previously thought.
