Euclid, WFIRST, and HETDEX will make emission-line selected galaxies the largest observed constituent in the $z > 1$ universe. However, we only have a limited understanding of the physical properties of galaxies selected via their Ly$alpha$ or rest-frame optical emission lines. To begin addressing this problem, we present the basic properties of $sim 2,000$ AEGIS, COSMOS, GOODS-N, GOODS-S, and UDS galaxies identified in the redshift range $1.90 < z < 2.35$ via their [O II], H$beta$, and [O III] emission lines. For these $z sim 2$ galaxies, [O III] is generally much brighter than [O II] and H$beta$, with typical rest-frame equivalent widths of several hundred Angstroms. Moreover, these strong emission-line systems span an extremely wide range of stellar mass ($sim 3$ dex), star-formation rate ($sim 2$ dex), and [O III] luminosity ($sim 2$ dex). Comparing the distributions of these properties to those of continuum selected galaxies, we find that emission-line galaxies have systematically lower stellar masses and lower optical/UV dust attenuations. These measurements lay the groundwork for an extensive comparison between these rest-frame optical emission-line galaxies and Ly$alpha$ emitters identified in the HETDEX survey.
Upcoming missions such as Euclid and the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman) will use emission-line selected galaxies to address a variety of questions in cosmology and galaxy evolution in the $z>1$ universe. The optimal observing strategy for
We compare the rest-frame ultraviolet and rest-frame optical morphologies of 2 < z < 3 star-forming galaxies in the GOODS-S field using Hubble Space Telescope WFC3 and ACS images from the CANDELS, GOODS, and ERS programs. We show that the distributio
We compare the physical and morphological properties of z ~ 2 Lyman-alpha emitting galaxies (LAEs) identified in the HETDEX Pilot Survey and narrow band studies with those of z ~ 2 optical emission line galaxies (oELGs) identified via HST WFC3 infrar
We have used FMOS on Subaru to obtain near-infrared spectroscopy of 123 far-infrared selected galaxies in COSMOS and obtain the key rest-frame optical emission lines. This is the largest sample of infrared galaxies with near-infrared spectroscopy at
We present K-band spectra of rest-frame optical emission lines for 24 star-forming galaxies at z~3.2-3.7 using MOSFIRE on the Keck 1 telescope. Strong rest-frame optical [O III] and Hbeta emission lines were detected in 18 LBGs. The median flux ratio
