Description:
We present results of a study of E+A galaxies in the cluster Cl0939+472
(z=0.41). We have used a series of narrow-band filters (FWHM~=90-200A)
covering the range from 3800 to 9200A, and broad band B, R, I filters
to obtain low resolution spectra for all galaxies brighter than R=22.5mag
in a 5'x5' cluster field. Two of the narrow-band filters have been chosen
to measure the 4000A-break index, and 3 filters were centered on the
Hβ, Hγ and Hδ lines which are indicators of
recent star formation.
