Escape of Lyman continuum radiation from local galaxies - Detection of leakage from the young starburst Tol 1247-232
Elisabet Leitet, Nils Bergvall, Matthew Hayes +2
The escape fraction of hydrogen ionizing photons (f_esc) from galaxies has been suggested to be evolving with time, but the picture is far from clear. While evidence for significan…
