The zCOSMOS redshift survey used 600h on the VIMOS spectrograph spread over
five observing seasons (2005-2009) to obtain spectra of about 20,000 galaxies
selected to have Iab < 22.5 across the full 1.7 deg2 of the COSMOS field.
This part, "zCOSMOS-bright", was designed to yield a high and fairly uniform
sampling rate (about 70%), with a high success rate in measuring redshifts
(approaching 100% at 0.5 < z < 0.8), and with sufficient
velocity accuracy
(about 100 km/s) to efficiently map the environments of galaxies down to the
scale of galaxy groups out to redshifts z ~ 1.http://dc.zah.uni-heidelberg.de/tableinfo/zcosmos.dataSurveyIsServedByGAVO Data Center ObscoreVLTVIMOS5/6814 6/27245 27247 27250 27344-2734553463.09804 53884.002442.049027393e-19 3.608369762e-19OpticalivoaDefinition and support code for the ObsCore data model and table.
