Constraints on the Epoch of Reionization with Roman Space Telescope and the Void Probability Function of Lyα Emitters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We use large simulations of Ly α emitters with different fractions of ionized intergalactic medium to quantify the clustering of Ly α emitters as measured by the void probability function (VPF), and how it evolves under different ionization scenarios. We

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.

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

open access: yes, 2015
11 pages, 8 figures, accepted for publication in ApJ. Our conclusion is slightly updated as a result of an improved evaluation of the sky-subtraction systematics in the observed UV profile.

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 ).

Lyman-alpha emission in star-forming galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1988
IUE observations of five blue, low-metallicity, star-forming galaxies sufficiently redshifted to permit detection of Lyman-alpha are reported. The galaxies with metallicities 0.1 time solar or more have weak or absent Lyman-alpha emission. There is evidence for increasing Lyman-alpha emission with decreasing metallicity.

Transfert radiatif Lyman-alpha dans les galaxies

open access: yes, 2008
Pour étudier la formation et l'évolution des Galaxies, nous avons développé un code de transfert radiatif des photons Lyman-alpha à travers le milieu interstellaire d'une galaxie, MCLya. Emise par les atomes d'hydrogènes excités, cette raie de résonnance

Lyman-continuum galaxies and the escape fraction of Lyman-break galaxies

open access: yes, 2014
Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) at z ̃ 3-4 are targeted to measure the fraction of Lyman-continuum (LyC) flux that escapes from high-redshift galaxies. However, z ̃ 3-4 LBGs are identified using the Lyman-break technique which preferentially selects galaxies

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 ...

Feasibility Study for Application of Digitized Henize Mt. Wilson Michigan Southern Sky Hα$$ \boldsymbol{\alpha} $$ Survey Low‐Dispersive Spectral Plates for Searches for Anomalous and Highly Redshifted Objects

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The goal of this study is to confirm the feasibility of the use of digitized low dispersive MtWilson Michigan Southern Sky Hα$$ \alpha $$ survey astronomical photographic plates for modern astrophysical research. The detection of highly redshifted objects, such as early galaxies and quasars, is fundamental to understanding the universe's ...

The relationship between Gas and Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We have investigated the 2D 2-point correlation function, ƐAG, between low column density Lya absorbers and galaxies at a redshift z ~ 1 for the first time.
