On the Detectability of Lyman-alpha Emission in Star-forming Galaxies: The Role of Dust
Hakim Atek, Daniel Kunth, Matthew Hayes +3
Lyman-alpha is now widely used to investigate the galaxy formation and evolution in the high redshift universe. However, without a rigorous understanding of the processes which reg…
The Lyman alpha morphology of local starburst galaxies: release of calibrated images
Goran Ostlin, Matthew Hayes, Daniel Kunth +4
We present reduced and calibrated high resolution Lyman-alpha (Lya) images for a sample of 6 local star forming galaxies. Targets were selected to represent a range in luminosity a…
The escape of Lyman photons from a young starburst: the case of Haro 11
Matthew Hayes, Goran Ostlin, Hakim Atek +5
(Abridged) Lyman-alpha (Lya) is a dominant probe of the galaxy population at high-z. However, interpretation of data drawn from Lya alone hinges on the Lya escape fraction which, d…
