The Hα Luminosity Function and Star Formation Rate at<i>z</i>∼ 0.2

The Hα Luminosity Function and Star Formation Rate at<i>z</i>∼ 0.2

We have measured the Hα + [N II] fluxes of the I-selected Canada-France Redshift Survey (CFRS) galaxies lying at a redshift z below 0.3 and hence derived the Hα luminosity function. The magnitude limits of the CFRS mean that only the galaxies with MB ≳ -21 mag were observed at …
