Blue diffuse dwarf galaxies: a clearer picture

Bethan L. James, Sergey E. Koposov, Daniel P. Stark +4

The search for chemically unevolved galaxies remains prevalent in the nearby Universe, mostly because these systems provide excellent proxies for exploring in detail the physics of…

Nature of the Absorbing Gas associated with a Galaxy Group at z~0.4

Celine Peroux, Hadi Rahmani, Samuel Quiret +6

We present new MUSE observations of quasar field Q2131-1207 with a log N(HI)=19.50+/-0.15 sub-DLA at z_abs=0.42980. We detect four galaxies at a redshift consistent with that of th…

Nebular Emission Line Ratios in z~2-3 Star-Forming Galaxies with KBSS-MOSFIRE: Exploring the Impact of Ionization, Excitation, and Nitrogen-to-Oxygen Ratio

Allison L. Strom, Charles C. Steidel, Gwen C. Rudie +3

We present a detailed study of the rest-optical (3600-7000 Angstrom) nebular spectra of ~380 star-forming galaxies at z~2-3 obtained with Keck/MOSFIRE as part of the Keck Baryonic…

The Connection Between Reddening, Gas Covering Fraction, and the Escape of Ionizing Radiation at High Redshift

Naveen A. Reddy, Charles C. Steidel, Max Pettini +2

We use a large sample of galaxies at z~3 to establish a relationship between reddening, neutral gas covering fraction (fcov(HI)), and the escape of ionizing photons at high redshif…

A High Fraction of Ly-alpha-Emitters Among Galaxies with Extreme Emission Line Ratios at z ~ 2

Dawn K. Erb, Max Pettini, Charles C. Steidel +5

Star-forming galaxies form a sequence in the [OIII]/H-beta vs. [NII]/H-alpha diagnostic diagram, with low metallicity, highly ionized galaxies falling in the upper left corner. Dra…

Spectroscopic Measurements of the Far-Ultraviolet Dust Attenuation Curve at z~3

Naveen A. Reddy, Charles C. Steidel, Max Pettini +1

We present the first measurements of the shape of the far-ultraviolet (far-UV; lambda=950-1500 A) dust attenuation curve at high redshift (z~3). Our analysis employs rest-frame UV…
