Tracing Lyman-alpha and Lyman Continuum Escape in Galaxies with Mg II Emission

Xinfeng Xu, Alaina Henry, Timothy Heckman +29

Star-forming galaxies are considered the likeliest source of the H I ionizing Lyman Continuum (LyC) photons that reionized the intergalactic medium at high redshifts. However, abov…

The Low-Redshift Lyman Continuum Survey II: New Insights into LyC Diagnostics

Sophia R. Flury, Anne E. Jaskot, Harry C. Ferguson +44

The Lyman continuum (LyC) cannot be observed at the epoch of reionization (z {\gtrsim} 6) due to intergalactic H I absorption. To identify Lyman continuum emitters (LCEs) and infer…

The Low-Redshift Lyman Continuum Survey I: New, Diverse Local Lyman-Continuum Emitters

Sophia R. Flury, Anne E. Jaskot, Harry C. Ferguson +44

The origins of Lyman continuum (LyC) photons responsible for the reionization of the universe are as of yet unknown and highly contested. Detecting LyC photons from the epoch of re…

The Low-Redshift Lyman Continuum Survey. Unveiling the ISM properties of low- Lyman continuum emitters

Alberto Saldana-Lopez, Daniel Schaerer, John Chisholm +24

Combining 66 ultraviolet (UV) spectra and ancillary data from the Low-Redshift Lyman Continuum Survey (LzLCS) and 23 LyC observations by earlier studies, we form a statistical samp…

The Low-redshift Lyman-continuum Survey: [S II]-deficiency and the leakage of ionizing radiation

Bingjie Wang, Timothy M. Heckman, Ricardo Amorín +19

The relationship between galaxy characteristics and the reionization of the universe remains elusive, mainly due to the observational difficulty in accessing the Lyman continuum (L…
