Contents of the GOODS-N-All Table

The GOODS-N-All tables provide a compendium of redshifts in the HST/ACS imaging field from a variety of sources, including the the Team Keck Redshift Survey and the Cowie et al. survey. The table is available in several formats, all of which have identical content as described below.

Columns in the GOODS-N-All Table

Column Name Data Type Units Description
1 ra double degrees Right Ascension derived from ACS catalog(J2000)
2 dec double degrees Declination derived from ACS catalog(J2000)
3 bmag real mag Magnitude in b passband from GOODS team ACS photometry (see note 1)
4 vmag real mag Magnitude in v passband from GOODS team ACS photometry (see note 1)
5 imag real mag Magnitude in i passband from GOODS team ACS photometry (see note 1)
6 zmag real mag Magnitude in z passband from GOODS team ACS photometry (see note 1)
7 z real Adopted Redshift (see note 2)
8 zflag integer Flag whether spectrum was acquired with DEIMOS. Value is 1 if the spectrum is based on a DEIMOS observation, otherwise zero. DEIMOS redshifts should be more accurate (sigma of 60 km/s) than the LRIS based redshifts (180 km/s).
9 z_uhdmos real Redshift measured by UH/IfA team using Keck+DEIMOS
10 z_uhlris real Redshift measured by UH/IfA team using Keck+LRIS
11 z_tkrs real Redshift measured by Team Keck using Keck+DEIMOS
12 z_cohen real Redshift measured by Judy Cohen et al. using Keck+LRIS
13 z_lick real Redshift measured by Lick team using Keck+LRIS
14 z_dawson real Redshift measured by Dawson et al. using Keck+LRIS
15 z_steidel real Redshift measured by Steidel et al. using Keck+LRIS
15 z_steidel real Redshift measured by others teams using Keck+LRIS

Notes:

  1. ACS magnitudes are not measured within comparable apertures and hence may not be used for computing appropriate colors.
  2. Where there are multiple redshifts the DEIMOS value has been adopted (adopting Hawaii first then TKRS unless there is a disagreement which has been resolved in favor of a particular redshift). After that we have chosen the Hawaii LRIS redshift, the Caltech redshift, the Lick redshift, or one of the remaining redshifts in this order of priority. The choice of ordering in both cases is somewhat arbitrary. Note that in all redshift columns, a value of -1 indicates no measure and -2 indicates a star.
