WFILAS: Wide Field Imager Lyman Alpha Search
Eduard Westra, D. Heath Jones, Chris Lidman +6
The Wide Field Imager Lyman-Alpha Search (WFILAS) is a search for Lya emitting galaxies at z~5.7. Deep images from the Wide Field Imager (WFI) on the ESO/MPI 2.2m telescope have be…
The Wide Field Imager Lyman-Alpha Search (WFILAS) for Galaxies at Redshift ~5.7: I. A Spatially Compact Lyman-alpha Emitting Galaxy at Redshift 5.721
Eduard Westra, D. Heath Jones, Chris E. Lidman +6
We report the spectroscopic confirmation of a compact \lya emitting galaxy at . A FORS2 spectrum of the source shows a strong asymmetric line with a flux of 5$\times10^{-1…
Low-Metallicity Blue Compact Dwarfs as Templates for Primordial Star Formation
L. K. Hunt, H. Hirashita, T. X. Thuan +2
Understanding how galaxies formed their first stars is a vital cosmological question, but the study of high-redshift objects, caught in the act of forming their first stars, is dif…
