Nature of Emission Line Galaxies on a Survey on the 8200Å Atmospheric Window

Abstract

We present photometric redshifts, emission-line luminosities, multi-band photometry and structural parameters for a sample of emission-line galaxies selected by their contrast in a narrow band filter centred in the 8200Å atmospheric window. Although our results can not be definitive until follow-up spectroscopy of the sample is available, the physical properties of these galaxies appear to be remarkably similar to those of local galaxies selected in the same way. A significant number of emitters of [OIII]λ5007Å at z = 0.6 and [OII]λ3727Å at z = 1.2 are found.
