Star formation indicators and line equivalent width in Lyα galaxies [PDF]
The equivalent width (EW) of the Lyα line is directly related to the ratio of star formation rates determined from Lyα flux and UV flux density [SFR(Lyα)/SFR(UV)].

High-redshift Ly alpha emitters with a large equivalent width: Properties of i-dropout galaxies with an NB921-band depression in the Subaru Deep Field [PDF]
We report new follow-up spectroscopy of i-dropout galaxies with an NB921-band depression found in the Subaru Deep Field. The NB921-depressed i-dropout selection method is expected to select galaxies with large equivalent width Ly alpha emission over a ...

NICMOS imaging search for high-redshift damped Lyα galaxies [PDF]
We are engaged in a programme of imaging with the STIS and NICMOS (NIC2) instruments aboard the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), to search for the galaxy counterparts of 18 high-redshift z>1.75 damped Lyα absorption lines and five Lyman-limit systems seen ...

Metals and Dust in Intermediate-Redshift Damped Lyα Galaxies [PDF]
We report on spectroscopic observations with the Multiple Mirror Telescope for 11 damped Lyα absorbers (DLAs) or strong DLA candidates at 0.1 < z < 1.5, including several absorbers discovered in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.

We present Ly α imaging of 45 low-redshift star-forming galaxies observed with the Hubble Space Telescope. The galaxies have been selected to have moderate to high star formation rates (SFRs) using far-ultraviolet (FUV) luminosity and H α equivalent ...

Abundance Patterns of Heavy Elements in Damped Lyα Galaxies [PDF]
We present a quantitative analysis of the abundances of heavy elements in damped Lyα galaxies in the sample of Lu et al. In particular, we compare the observed gas-phase abundances with those expected when the intrinsic (i.e., nucleosynthetic) pattern is

The Lyman‐α Sky Background as Observed by New Horizons
Abstract Recent observations of interplanetary medium atomic hydrogen Lyman‐α emission in the outer solar system, made with the Alice ultraviolet spectrograph on New Horizons, are presented. The observations include regularly spaced great circle scans of the sky and pointed observations near the downstream and upstream flow directions of interstellar H

Lyman-alpha emission galaxies at a redshift of z = 5.7 in the FORS Deep Field [PDF]
We present the results of a search for Lyman-alpha emission galaxies at z~ 5.7 in the FORS Deep Field. The objective of this study is to improve the faint end of the luminosity function of high-redshift Lyman-alpha emitting galaxies and to derive ...

The z = 0.0912 and z = 0.2212 Damped Lyα Galaxies along the Sight Line toward the Quasar OI 363 [PDF]
New optical and infrared observations along the sight line toward the quasar OI 363 (0738+313) are presented and discussed. Excluding quasars selectively observed because they were known to be located behind gas-rich galaxies and systems which lack ...

Heavy Sterile Neutrino in Dark Matter Searches
Sterile neutrinos are possible dark matter candidates. We examine here possible detection mechanisms, assuming that the neutrino has a mass of about 50 keV and couples to the ordinary neutrino. Even though this neutrino is quite heavy, it is nonrelativistic with a maximum kinetic energy of 0.1 eV.
