A Survey of Lyα Emission around Damped Lyα Absorbers at z ≈ 2 with the Keck Cosmic Web Imager

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
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 ...

Lyman Break Galaxies at z~5: Rest-frame UV Spectra II

open access: yes, 2007
We present the results of spectroscopy of Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) at z~5 in the J0053+1234 field with the Faint Object Camera and Spectrograph on the Subaru telescope. Among 5 bright candidates with z' < 25.0 mag, 2 objects are confirmed to be at z~5

Observational Searches for Galaxies at z > 6

open access: yes, 2016
Although the universe at redshifts greater than six represents only the first one billion years ( 6, with spectroscopically confirmed galaxies out to nearly z = 9.

Neutral Gas Properties and Lyα Escape in Extreme Green Pea Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
Mechanisms regulating the escape of Lyα photons and ionizing radiation remain poorly understood. To study these processes, we analyze Very Large Array 21 cm observations of one Green Pea (GP), J160810+352809 (hereafter J1608), and Hubble Space Telescope ...

Early Results from GLASS-JWST. XXIII. The Transmission of Lyα from UV-faint z ∼ 3–6 Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Ly α emission from galaxies can be used to trace neutral hydrogen in the epoch of reionization, however, there is a degeneracy between the attenuation of Ly α in the intergalactic medium (IGM) and the line profile emitted by the galaxy.

Spectral Shapes of the Lyα Emission from Galaxies. I. Blueshifted Emission and Intrinsic Invariance with Redshift

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2020
We demonstrate the redshift evolution of the spectral profile of H i Lyα emission from star-forming galaxies. In this first study we pay special attention to the contribution of blueshifted emission.

Three Lyα Emitting Galaxies within a Quasar Proximity Zone at z ∼ 5.8 [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
Quasar proximity zones at correspond to overdense and overionized environments. Galaxies found inside proximity zones can therefore display features that would otherwise be masked by absorption in the intergalactic medium.

Absorption Troughs of Lyα Emitters in HETDEX

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Hobby–Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX) is designed to detect and measure the redshifts of more than 1 million Ly α emitting galaxies (LAEs) 1.88 < z < 3.52. In addition to its cosmological measurements, these data enable studies of Ly

Cosmological-scale Lyα Forest Absorption around Galaxies and AGNs Probed with the HETDEX and SDSS Spectroscopic Data

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present cosmological-scale three-dimensional neutral hydrogen (H i ) tomographic maps at z = 2–3 over a total of 837 deg ^2 in two blank fields that are developed with Ly α forest absorptions of 14,736 background Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS ...

The physical properties of Lyalpha emitting galaxies: not just primeval galaxies?

open access: yes, 2008
We have analyzed a sample of LBGs from z =3.5 to z=6 selected from the GOODS-S field as B,V and i-dropouts, and with spectroscopic observations showing that they have the Lyalpha line in emission.
