Predicting Lyα Emission from Galaxies via Empirical Markers of Production and Escape in the KBSS [PDF]
Lyα emission is widely used to detect and confirm high-redshift galaxies and characterize the evolution of the intergalactic medium (IGM). However, many galaxies do not display Lyα emission in typical spectroscopic observations, and intrinsic Lyα ...

= 7 − 9 Star Forming Galaxies with CEERS: New Insight into Bright Lyα Emitters in Ionized Bubbles
International audienceABSTRACT We describe new JWST/NIRSpec observations of galaxies at z ≳ 7 taken from the CEERS survey. Previous observations of this area have revealed associations of Lyα emitters at redshifts (z = 7.5, 7.7, and 8.7) where the ...

MAMMOTH-Subaru. III. Lyα Halo Identified by Stacking ∼3300 Lyα Emitters at z = 2.2–2.3
In this paper, we present a Ly α halo (LAH) identified by stacking ∼3300 Ly α emitters (LAEs) at z = 2.2–2.3. We carry out imaging observations and data reduction with Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam.

Resolving circumgalactic gas flows around a z ≈ 3.6 quasar using MUSE and ALMA
The formation and evolution of galaxies is regulated by the exchange of gas with the surrounding large-scale structures on circum- and intergalactic scales, yet little is known about the complex processes shaping the cycle of baryons in and out of ...

Diffuse Lyα haloes around Lyα emitters at z = 3: do dark matter distributions determine the Lyα spatial extents? [PDF]
Using stacks of Lyα images of 2128 Lyα emitters (LAEs) and 24 proto-cluster UV-selected galaxies (LBGs) at z = 3.1, we examine the surface brightness profiles of Lyα haloes around high-z galaxies as a function of environment and UV luminosity.

Before its time: A remarkably evolved protocluster core at z = 7.88
Protoclusters represent the most extreme environments in the very early Universe. They form from large-scale dark matter overdensities, harbouring an overabundance of galaxies fed by large gas reservoirs.

Lyα emission in galaxies at z ≃ 5−6: new insight from JWST into the statistical distributions of Lyα properties at the end of reionization [PDF]
JWST has recently sparked a new era of Lyα spectroscopy, delivering the first measurements of the Lyα escape fraction and velocity profile in typical galaxies at z ≃ 6−10.

A Survey of Lyα Emission around Damped Lyα Absorbers at z ≈ 2 with the Keck Cosmic Web Imager
We present Keck Cosmic Web Imager Ly α integral field spectroscopy of the fields surrounding 14 damped Ly α absorbers (DLAs) at z ≈ 2. Of these 14 DLAs, nine have high metallicities ([M/H] > − 0.3), and four of those nine feature a CO-emitting galaxy at ...

A NOEMA pilot survey of [C II] line emission in luminous galaxies at z ≈ 6
We present Northern Extended Millimeter Array (NOEMA) observations of four luminous galaxies at z ∼ 6, when the Universe was less than ∼1 Gyr old. These galaxies are detected in the [C II] 158 μm fine-structure line, and three also exhibit underlying ...

Building the Bridge between Damped Lyα Absorbers and Lyman-Break Galaxies
In 2000, we started the program "Building the Bridge between Damped Lyman-α Absorbers and Lyman-Break Galaxies: Lyα Selection of Galaxies" at the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope (VLT).
