    Confirmation of a steep luminosity function for Ly[alpha] emitters at z = 5.7: a major component of reionization 
    Dressler, Alan; Henry, Alaina; Martin, Crystal L.; Sawicki, Marcin, 1969-; McCarthy, Patrick; Villaneuva, Edward (American Astronomical SocietyIOP Publishing, 2015-06-10)
    We report the first direct and robust measurement of the faint-end slope of the Ly[alpha] emitter (LAE) luminosity function (LF) at z = 5.7. Candidate LAEs from a low-spectral-resolution blind search with IMACS on ...

    The DEEP2 redshift survey: Ly[alpha] emitters in the spectroscopic database 
    Sawicki, Marcin, 1969-; Lemaux, Brian C.; Guhathakurta, Puragra; Kirby, Evan N.; Konidaris, Nicholas P.; Martin, Crystal L.; Cooper, Michael C.; Koo, David C.; Newman, Jeffrey A.; Weiner, Benjamin J. (American Astronomical Society, 2008-11-10)
    We present the first results of a search for Ly[alpha] emitters (LAEs) in the DEEP2 spectroscopic database that uses a search technique that is different from but complementary to traditional narrowband imaging surveys.We ...

    Detections of faint Ly[alpha] emitters at z = 5.7: Galaxy building blocks and engines of reionization 
    Dressler, Alan; Martin, Crystal L.; Henry, Alaina; Sawicki, Marcin, 1969-; McCarthy, Patrick (American Astronomical Society, 2011-10-20)
    We report results of an unprecedentedly deep, blind search for Ly[alpha] emitters (LAEs) at z = 5.7 using the Inamori-Magellan Areal Camera & Spectrograph (IMACS), with the goal of identifying missing sources of reionization ...

    The faint-end slope of the redshift 5.7 Ly[alpha] luminosity function 
    Sawicki, Marcin, 1969-; Henry, Alaina L.; Martin, Crystal L.; Dressler, Alan; McCarthy, Patrick (American Astronomical SocietyIOP Publishing, 2012-01-10)
    Using new Keck DEIMOS spectroscopy, we examine the origin of the steep number counts of ultra-faint emission-line galaxies recently reported by Dressler et al. We confirm six Ly[alpha] emitters (LAEs), three of which have ...

    A Magellan IMACS spectroscopic search for Ly[alpha]-emitting galaxies at redshift 5.7 
    Martin, Crystal L.; Sawicki, Marcin, 1969-; Dressler, Alan; McCarthy, Pat (American Astronomical SocietyIOP Publishing, 2008-06-01)
    We present results from a blind, spectroscopic survey for z ~ 5.7 Ly[alpha]-emitting galaxies (LAEs) using the Inamori Magellan Areal Camera and Spectrograph. A total of ~200 arcmin[superscript 2] were observed in the ...

    New results from the Magellan IMACS spectroscopic Ly[alpha] survey: NICMOS observations of Ly[alpha] emitters at z = 5.7 
    Sawicki, Marcin, 1969-; Henry, Alaina L.; Martin, Crystal L.; Dressler, Alan; McCarthy, Patrick (American Astronomical SocietyIOP Publishing, 2010-08-10)
    We present NICMOS J[subscript 110] (rest-frame 1200–2100 [Angstrom]) observations of the three z = 5.7 Ly[alpha] emitters discovered in the blind multislit spectroscopic survey by Martin et al. These images confirm the ...
