Description:
The Canada-France Redshift Survey (CFRS) is a collaboration between
astronomers in Canada and France: Simon Lilly (University of Toronto),
Olivier Le Fevre and Francois Hammer (Observatoire de Paris Meudon),
David Crampton (Dominion Astrophysical Observatory, Victoria),
Laurence Tresse (Cambridge University), and David Schade and Dan Hudon
(University of Toronto). The survey is based primarily on observations
with the 3.6m Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) on Mauna Kea,
Hawaii. The CFRS consists of spectra of over 1000 faint objects
selected to have 17.5 < I(AB) < 22.5 in five regions of sky. The
survey is providing the first systematic study of normal galaxies at
redshifts z > 0.5, corresponding to look-back times of greater than
50% of the age of the Universe. Observations of CFRS galaxies have
also been made with the Hubble Space Telescope and the survey will
form the basis of future studies with a number of other ground-based
and space facilities. We have written a lay-persons guide to the CFRS
and the main scientific results that are emerging from it.
