The Prevalence of Galaxy Overdensities Around UV-Luminous Lyman Emitters in the Epoch of Reionization

E. Leonova, P. A. Oesch, Y. Qin +19

Before the end of the epoch of reionization, the Hydrogen in the Universe was predominantly neutral. This leads to a strong attenuation of Ly lines of galaxies in th…

The Mass of the Milky Way from the H3 Survey

Jeff Shen, Gwendolyn M. Eadie, Norman Murray +8

The mass of the Milky Way is a critical quantity which, despite decades of research, remains uncertain within a factor of two. Until recently, most studies have used dynamical trac…

Evidence from Disrupted Halo Dwarfs that -process Enrichment via Neutron Star Mergers is Delayed by Myrs

Rohan P. Naidu, Alexander P. Ji, Charlie Conroy +10

The astrophysical origins of -process elements remain elusive. Neutron star mergers (NSMs) and special classes of core-collapse supernovae (rCCSNe) are leading candidates. Due t…

The Synchrony of Production & Escape: Half the Bright Ly Emitters at have Lyman Continuum Escape Fractions

Rohan P. Naidu, Jorryt Matthee, Pascal A. Oesch +14

The ionizing photon escape fraction (LyC ) of star-forming galaxies is the single greatest unknown in the reionization budget. Stochastic sightline effects prohibit t…

(Re)Solving Reionization with Lyα: How Bright Lyα Emitters account for the Cosmic Ionizing Background

Jorryt Matthee, Rohan P. Naidu, Gabriele Pezzulli +12

The cosmic ionizing emissivity from star-forming galaxies has long been anchored to UV luminosity functions. Here we introduce an emissivity framework based on Ly emitters (LAEs…

Dark-ages Reionization and Galaxy Formation Simulation XX. The Ly IGM transmission properties and environment of bright galaxies during the Epoch of Reionization

Yuxiang Qin, J. Stuart B. Wyithe, Pascal A. Oesch +4

The highly neutral inter-galactic medium (IGM) during the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) is expected to suppress Ly emission with damping-wing absorption, causing nearly no Ly d…

All-Sky Dynamical Response of the Galactic Halo to the Large Magellanic Cloud

Charlie Conroy, Rohan P. Naidu, Nicolas Garavito-Camargo +4

Gravitational interactions between the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and the stellar and dark matter halo of the Milky Way are expected to give rise to disequilibrium phenomena in t…

Reconstructing the Last Major Merger of the Milky Way with the H3 Survey

Rohan P. Naidu, Charlie Conroy, Ana Bonaca +8

Several lines of evidence suggest the Milky Way underwent a major merger at z~2 with a galaxy known as Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus (GSE). Here we use H3 Survey data to argue that GSE en…

New Determinations of the UV Luminosity Functions from z~9 to z~2 show a remarkable consistency with halo growth and a constant star formation efficiency

R. J. Bouwens, P. A. Oesch, M. Stefanon +9

Here we provide the most comprehensive determinations of the rest-frame LF available to date with HST at z~2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Essentially all of the non-cluster extra…

The X-SHOOTER Lyman- survey at z=2 (XLS-z2) I: What makes a galaxy a Lyman- emitter?

Jorryt Matthee, David Sobral, Matthew Hayes +9

We present the first results from the X-SHOOTER Lyman- survey at (XLS-). XLS- is a deep spectroscopic survey of 35 Lyman- emitters (LAEs) utilising …
