Multiwavelength Surveys within the DEEP Fields

Abstract

DEEP has launched DEEP2, a major new Keck spectroscopic survey of 50,000 galaxies at redshift z ~ 1 using a new spectrograph (DEIMOS). We give an overview of the project’s science goals and why DEEP2 is especially attractive to support complementary coverage by a suite of faint multiwavelength imaging surveys. We highlight one such effort already underway in the DEEP2 field called the Extended Groth Strip (EGS).
