摘要: We present Ly$\alpha$ and ultraviolet-continuum (UV) luminosity functions
(LFs) of galaxies and active galactic nuclei (AGN) at $z=2.0-3.5$ determined by
the un-targetted optical spectroscopic survey of the Hobby-Eberly Telescope
Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX). We combine deep Subaru imaging with HETDEX
spectra resulting in $11.4$ deg$^2$ of fiber-spectra sky coverage, obtaining
$18320$ galaxies spectroscopically identified with Ly$\alpha$ emission, $2126$
of which host type 1 AGN showing broad (FWHM$~>1000$ km s$^{-1}$) Ly$\alpha$
emission lines. We derive the Ly$\alpha$ (UV) LF over 2 orders of magnitude
covering bright galaxies and AGN in $\log
L_\mathrm{Ly\alpha}/\mathrm{[erg~s^{-1}]}=43.3-45.5$ ($-27-21$) type 1
AGN increases from $z\sim2$ to $z\sim0$ as opposed to the evolution of bright
($M_\mathrm{UV}<-21$) type 1 AGN, suggesting the AGN downsizing in the
rest-frame UV luminosity.
