Tracing large-scale structure at high redshift with Lyman-alpha emitters: the effect of peculiar velocities
P. Monaco, P. Moller, J. Fynbo +3
We investigate the effect of peculiar velocities on the redshift space distribution of z>~2 galaxies, and we focus in particular on Ly-alpha emitters. We generate catalogues of dar…
Ly-alpha and UV emission from high-redshift GRB hosts: To what extent do GRBs trace star formation?
P. Jakobsson, G. Bjornsson, J. P. U. Fynbo +9
We report the result of a search for Ly-alpha emission from the host galaxies of the gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) 030226 (z = 1.986), 021004 (z = 2.335) and 020124 (z = 3.198). We find…
Strangelet propagation and cosmic ray flux
Jes Madsen
The galactic propagation of cosmic ray strangelets is described and the resulting flux is calculated for a wide range of parameters as a prerequisite for strangelet searches in lun…
The Lyman-alpha glow of gas falling into the dark matter halo of a z=3 galaxy
Michael Weidinger, Palle Moller, Johan P. U. Fynbo
Quasars are the visible signatures of super-massive black holes in the centres of distant galaxies. It has been suggested that quasars are formed during ``major merger events'' whe…
The line-of-sight towards GRB 030429 at z = 2.66: Probing the matter at stellar, galactic and intergalactic scales
P. Jakobsson, J. Hjorth, J. P. U. Fynbo +21
We report the discovery of the optical afterglow (OA) of the long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB 030429, and present a comprehensive optical/near-infrared dataset used to probe the m…
Supernova light curve models for the bump in the Optical Counterpart of X-Ray Flash 030723
N. Tominaga, J. Deng, P. A. Mazzali +5
XRF 030723 is the first X-ray flash (XRF) to show in its optical light curve (LC) a bump that has been interpreted as the signature of a supernova (SN). After subtracting the after…
