Abstract

For the University of Michigan (UM) survey, the Curtis Schmidt telescope at CTIO is used with Kodak IIIa-J plates and the 1.°8 objective prism to detect emission-line galaxies (ELGs) and quasars. Line emission is the primary selection criterion. The quasar sample has been investigated by Lewis, MacAlpine, and Weedman (1979) and by MacAlpine and Feldman (1982) while a study of the ELGs was begun by Lewis (1983). Here, we report on a more extensive analysis of the 172 ELG candidates in the UM Lists IV (MacAlpine and Lewis 1978) and V (MacAlpine and Williams 1981) areas.
