Optically Faint Massive Balmer Break Galaxies at z > 3 in the CANDELS/GOODS Fields
We present a sample of 33 Balmer break galaxies (BBGs) selected as Hubble Space Telescope/F160W dropouts in the deepest CANDELS/GOODS fields (H ≳ 27.3 mag) but relatively bright in Spitzer/IRAC ([3.6], [4.5] 24.5 mag), implying red colors (median and quartiles: H-[3.6]> ={3.1}2.83.4 {mag}). Half of these BBGs are newly identified sources. Our
