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.

HOW LYMAN ALPHA EMISSION DEPENDS ON GALAXY STELLAR MASS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2016
ABSTRACT In this work, we show how the stellar mass (M *) of galaxies affects the 3 < z < 4.6 Lyα equivalent width (EW) distribution. To this end, we design a sample of 629 galaxies in the M * range from the ...

The HETDEX Survey Emission-line Exploration and Source Classification

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Hobby–Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX) is an untargeted spectroscopic survey that aims to measure the expansion rate of the universe at z ∼ 2.4 to 1% precision for both H ( z ) and D _A ( z ).

The Lyα Reference Sample. XIV. Lyα Imaging of 45 Low-redshift Star-forming Galaxies and Inferences on Global Emission

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
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 ...

Lyman-alpha and CIII] Emission in z=7-9 Galaxies: Accelerated Reionization Around Luminous Star Forming Systems? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We discuss new Keck/MOSFIRE spectroscopic observations of four luminous galaxies at z~7-9 selected to have intense optical line emission by Roberts-Borsani et al. (2016). Previous follow-up has revealed Lyman-alpha in two of the four galaxies.

On the Diffuse Lyman-alpha Halo Around Lyman-alpha Emitting Galaxies

open access: yes, 2015
Ly$ $ photons scattered by neutral hydrogen atoms in the circumgalactic media or produced in the halos of star-forming galaxies are expected to lead to extended Ly$ $ emission around galaxies. Such low surface brightness Ly$ $ halos (LAHs) have been detected by stacking Ly$ $ images of high-redshift star-forming galaxies.

The Dynamical Masses, Densities, and Star Formation Scaling Relations of Lyman Alpha Galaxies

open access: yes, 2013
We present the first dynamical mass measurements for Lyman alpha galaxies at high redshift, based on velocity dispersion measurements from rest-frame optical emission lines and size measurements from HST imaging, for a sample of nine galaxies drawn from ...
