Description
We present a detailed study of an unusually bright, lensed galaxy at z=5.424 discoveredwithin theCFHTLSimaging survey.With an observed flux of iAB =23.0, J141446.82+544631.9 is one of the brightest galaxies known at z > 5. It is characterized by strong Ly α emission, reaching a peak in (observed) flux density of > 10-16 erg s-1 cm-2Å-1. A deep optical spectrum from the Large Binocular Telescope places strong constraints on NV and C IV emission, disfavouring an Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN)...[Show more]
