VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey
(VIPERS)
(spectrographic redshift survey of 80,000 galaxies)
The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS)
is a redshift spectrographic
survey of 80,000+ galaxies
observed with European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope's (ESO-VLT's) VIMOS spectrograph.
A goal was to calibrate future photometric redshift surveys.
VIPERS covered 0.5 < z < 1.2.
