ARG00005mb - green(ish) pea as host?

  • JeanTate by JeanTate

    SDSS J132931.31+592940.5, z_ph 0.329±0.0957/0.331±0.1101, looks like a yellow-green pea, which isn't inconsistent with what Green Peas would look like at z ~0.33 (sadly, we don't have a spectrum):

    Unfortunately, I don't think we can say with much certainty that it's the host:

    z_ph 0.651±0.0859/0.615±0.1084 SDSS J132932.04+592939.7 could be the host:

    Boilerplate: SDSS image per http://skyservice.pha.jhu.edu/DR10/ImgCutout/getjpeg.aspx, FIRST (red) contours derived from the FITS file produced using SkyView with Python code described in this RGZ Talk thread. Image center (J2000.0) is the galaxy SDSS J132931.31+592940.5; "z_ph" its SDSS photometric redshift.

    Hard to say if the host is the green or red galaxy. Will put this on my list of #green objects for follow-up.
