Photometric Redshifts in the CFDF

Abstract

The Canada-France Deep Fields (CFDF) is a large, deep, multi-colour imaging survey undertaken primarily at CFHT. It is about 10 times fainter than the CFRS (Lilly et al 1995a) and contains over 100 times as many galaxies. With three common fields, CFDF redshifts will be estimated photometrically using the CFRS spectroscopic catalogue as a training set. The project will yield large numbers of galaxies and will extend many of the CFRS results to higher redshifts and fainter flux levels.
