Fig. 15.
Left: number of galaxies in a randomly placed FOV in the 3D-HST GOODS-South field. The filled and empty histograms are computed for the FOV = 44 (52) arcmin2, corresponding to the VIFU and HMM-VIS modes, respectively. The FOV is repositioned 1000 times. The results are given for different magnitude cuts, and a redshift range of 3 < z < 4 is considered. Right: predicted cumulative numbers of galaxies in a 44 (solid) and 52 (dashed) arcmin2 FOV obtained by integrating the measured rest-UV luminosity function of LBG galaxies (Reddy & Steidel 2009; Bouwens et al. 2015). Different colours correspond to different limiting magnitudes.
