Spectroscopic Ultraluminous Lyα Luminosity Functions at z = 5.7 and z = 6.6 from HEROES: Evidence for Ionized Bubbles

The Astrophysical Journal
We present spectroscopic Ly α luminosity functions (LFs) at z = 5.7 and z = 6.6 based on a large 209 source sample of Ly α emitter (LAE) candidates identified in Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam narrowband imaging and confirmed with Keck II/DEIMOS spectroscopy ...

A deep X-ray look to the most obscured quasar at z  ∼  3.6 and its environment

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The most luminous and obscured quasars (QSOs) detected through sensitive infrared all-sky surveys are thought to represent a key co-evolutionary phase from nuclear to circumgalactic (CG) scales in the formation of massive galaxies.

Impact of Cosmic Ray-driven Outflows on Lyα Emission in Cosmological Simulations

The Astrophysical Journal
Cosmic ray (CR) feedback has been proposed as a powerful mechanism for driving warm gas outflows in galaxies. We use cosmological magnetohydrodynamic simulations to investigate the impact of CR feedback on neutral hydrogen (H i ) in a 10 ^11 M _⊙ dark ...

Quasar Negative Feedback to Surrounding Galaxies Probed with Lyα Emitters and Continuum-selected Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
We report on the statistical analysis of quasar photoevaporation at z  ∼ 2.2 by comparing the density of surrounding Ly α emitters (LAEs) and continuum-selected galaxies, based on the imaging data of the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Subaru Strategic Program ...

Studying the absorption signatures of H I Lyα in the warm-hot circumgalactic medium with TNG50

Astronomy & Astrophysics
In this study, we investigate the spectral signatures of neutral hydrogen Lyman-α absorption arising from the warm-hot gas component of the circumgalactic medium (CGM) around z = 0 Milky Way (MW)-like galaxies using the high-resolution TNG50 cosmological

Testing Lyα Emitters and Lyman-break Galaxies as Tracers of Large-scale Structures at High Redshifts

The Astrophysical Journal
We test whether Lyα emitters (LAEs) and Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) can be good tracers of high- z large-scale structures, using the Horizon Run 5 cosmological hydrodynamical simulation.

Lyα at Cosmic Dawn with a Simulated Roman Grism Deep Field

The Astronomical Journal
The slitless grism on the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will enable deep near-infrared spectroscopy over a wide field of view. We demonstrate Roman's capability to detect Ly α galaxies at z > 7 using a multiple position angle (PA) observational ...

Constraints on the z  ∼  6−13 intergalactic medium from JWST spectroscopy of Lyman-alpha damping wings in galaxies

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. JWST provides a unique dataset for studying the earliest stages of reionisation at z > 9, promising insights into the first galaxies. Many JWST/NIRSpec prism spectra of z > 5 galaxies have revealed smooth Lyman-alpha breaks, implying damping ...
