Spectroscopically Identified Emission Line Galaxy Pairs in the WISP survey
We identify a sample of spectroscopically measured emission line galaxy (ELG) pairs up to z=1.6 from the WFC3 Infrared Spectroscopic Parallels (WISP) survey. WISP obtained slitless, near-infrared grism spectroscopy along with direct imaging in the J and H bands by observing in the pure-parallel mode...

description | We identify a sample of spectroscopically measured emission line galaxy (ELG) pairs up to z=1.6 from the WFC3 Infrared Spectroscopic Parallels (WISP) survey. WISP obtained slitless, near-infrared grism spectroscopy along with direct imaging in the J and H bands by observing in the pure-parallel mode with the Wide Field Camera Three (WFC3) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). From our search of 419 WISP fields covering an area of ~0.5 deg\(^{2}\), we find 413 ELG pair systems, mostly Halpha emitters. We then derive reliable star formation rates (SFRs) based on the attenuation-corrected Halpha fluxes. Compared to isolated galaxies, we find an average SFR enhancement of 40%-65%, which is stronger for major pairs and pairs with smaller velocity separations (Delta_v < 300 km/s). Based on the stacked spectra from various subsamples, we study the trends of emission line ratios in pairs, and find a general consistency with enhanced lower-ionization lines. We study the pair fraction among ELGs, and find a marginally significant increase with redshift \(f \propto (1+z)^\alpha\), where the power-law index \alpha=0.58\(\pm\)0.17 from \(z\sim\)0.2 to \(z\sim\)1.6. The fraction of Active galactic Nuclei (AGNs), is found to be the same in the ELG pairs as compared to isolated ELGs. |
