Deep LBT/LUCI Spectroscopy of a Lyman-alpha Emitter Candidate at z ~ 7.7
Linhua Jiang, Fuyan Bian, Xiaohui Fan +5
We present deep spectroscopic observations of a Lyman-alpha emitter (LAE) candidate at z ~ 7.7 using the infrared spectrograph LUCI on the 2 x 8.4m Large Binocular Telescope (LBT).…
The Surprising Absence of Absorption in the Far-Ultraviolet Spectrum of Mrk 231
S. Veilleux, M. Trippe, F. Hamann +11
Mrk 231, the nearest (z = 0.0422) quasar, hosts both a galactic-scale wind and a nuclear-scale iron low-ionization broad absorption line (FeLoBAL) outflow. We recently obtained a f…
Searching for z~7.7 Lyman Alpha Emitters in the COSMOS Field with NEWFIRM
Hannah Krug, Sylvain Veilleux, Vithal Tilvi +8
The study of Ly-alpha emission in the high-redshift universe is a useful probe of the epoch of reionization, as the Ly-alpha line should be attenuated by the intergalactic medium (…
The Luminosity Function of Lyman alpha Emitters at Redshift z=7.7
Vithal Tilvi, James E. Rhoads, Pascale Hibon +8
Lyman alpha (Lya) emission lines should be attenuated in a neutral intergalactic medium (IGM). Therefore the visibility of Lya emitters at high redshifts can serve as a valuable pr…
