CH+(1-0) in a z~2.8 galaxy group: Probe of multi-phasic turbulent gas reservoirs [PDF]
Starburst galaxies at redshifts z~2 to 4 are among the most intensely star-forming galaxies in the universe. The way they accrete their gas to form stars at such high rates is still a controversial issue.

The polarization of scattered Lyα radiation around high-redshift galaxies [PDF]
The high-redshift Universe contains luminous Lya emitting sources such as galaxies and quasars. The emitted Lyα radiation is often scattered by surrounding neutral hydrogen atoms. We show that the scattered Lyα radiation obtains a high level of polarization for a wide range of likely environments of high-redshift galaxies.

PAWS and POCO: NIR Astrophotonic Instruments for Astronomy
Abstract For near‐infrared ground and space‐based astronomy, compact photonic devices can replace the large bulk optical components in spectrographs, frequency combs, beam combiners, and sky subtraction filters, thus saving cost, reducing volume, weight, and power requirements.

Revisiting the emission line source detection problem in integral field spectroscopic data
Abstract We present a 3‐dimensional matched filtering approach for the blind search of faint emission‐line sources in integral‐field spectroscopic datasets. The filter is designed to account for the spectrally rapidly varying background noise due to the telluric air glow spectrum.

Effect of the metallicity of the intergalactic medium in the Lyman‐α forest correlation function
Abstract The Lyman‐α (Lyα) forest allows to constraint cosmological parameters at redshifts above 1.8$$ 1.8 $$ using the technique of standard rulers determined by baryon acoustic oscillations. This makes it an important tracer for the study of the universe at high redshift.

A comparison of metal and Ly-α absorption in galactic haloes [PDF]
The metallicity structure of galactic haloes is one of the major unknowns in modern galactic astrophysics and observational cosmology. Hereby we outline a very simple method for obtaining at least a crude picture of gas abundances, based on ...

The Cusp Plasma Imaging Detector (CuPID) CubeSat Observatory: Mission Overview
Abstract The Cusp Plasma Imaging detector (CuPID) Cube Satellite Observatory is a six‐unit Cube Satellite developed to study macroscale properties of dayside magnetopause reconnection. Reconnection will be studied through imaging spatial and temporal ion dispersion signatures in the magnetospheric cusps.

On the total absorption cross-section of galaxies - II: The case of λ cosmologies and covering factor variation [PDF]
In this work we expand the previous discussion of the plausibility of hypothesis of origin of the Lyα forest absorption systems in haloes of normal galaxies in connection with the HubbleDeepField (HDF) data.

Minihalo model for the low-redshift Lyα absorbers revisited [PDF]
We reconsider the basic properties of the classical minihalo model of Rees and Milgrom in light of the new work, both observational (on 'dark galaxies' and masses of baryonic haloes) and theoretical (on the cosmological mass function and the history of ...

The VANDELS survey: A strong correlation between Ly$\alpha$ equivalent width and stellar metallicity at $\mathbf{3\leq z \leq 5}$ [PDF]
We present the results of a new study investigating the relationship between observed Ly$\alpha$ equivalent width ($W_{\lambda}$(Ly$\alpha$)) and the metallicity of the ionizing stellar population ($Z_{\star}$) for a sample of $768$ star-forming galaxies
