About The Data
Data DescriptionNote: A multitude of archival HST data was used for these findings, including, but not limited to: grism spectroscopy data from the 3D-HST survey which contains areas within the COSMOS field and WFC3/F160W (H160) from the CANDELS survey. These findings are based on Hubble data from proposals and : P. van Dokkum (Yale Univerity) et al. The science team comprises of: S. Toft (Niels Bohr Institute), V. Smolcic (University of Zagreb), B.
