Abstract: (arXiv)
We present an Ultraviolet (UV) selected sample of 268 objects in the two fields of the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS). We used the parallel observations taken with WFPC2 in the U--band (F300W) which covered 88% of the GOODS fields to identify sources and selected only objects with GOODS/ACS counterparts. Spectroscopic redshifts for 95 of these sources are available and we have used the multiwavelength GOODS data to estimate photometric redshifts for the others. Most of the objects are between 0.2
