A direct calibration of thtae IRX–β relation in Lyman-break galaxies at z=3–5

We use a sample of 4209 Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) at z~ -3, 4, and 5 in the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey Ultra Deep Survey field to investigate the relationship between the observed slope of the stellar continuum emission in the ultraviolet, β , and the thermal dust emission, as quantified via t...
