Predicting emission line fluxes and number counts of distant galaxies for cosmological surveys

We estimate the number counts of line emitters at high redshift and their evolution with cosmic time based on a combination of photometry and spectroscopy. We predict the H\alpha, H\beta, [OII], and [OIII] line fluxes for more than 35,000 galaxies down to stellar masses of \sim10^9 M_{\odot} in the COSMOS... Show more
