Constraining Dust and Molecular Gas Properties in Lyman Alpha Blobs at z~3

Yujin Yang, Roberto Decarli, Helmut Dannerbauer +14

In order to constrain the bolometric luminosities, dust properties and molecular gas content of giant Lyman alpha nebulae, the so-called Lyman alpha blobs, we have carried out a st…

The properties of the brightest Lyman alpha emitters at z~5.7

C. Lidman, M. Hayes, D. H. Jones +5

(Abridged) We use deep VLT optical and near-IR spectroscopy and deep Spitzer/IRAC imaging to examine the properties of two of the most luminous Lyman alpha emitters at z=5.7. The c…

Red-Sequence Galaxies at High Redshift by the COMBO-17+4 Survey

Marie-Helene Nicol, Klaus Meisenheimer, Christian Wolf +1

We investigate the evolution of the galaxy population since redshift 2 with a focus on the colour bimodality and mass density of the red sequence. We obtain precise and reliable ph…

Lyman `bump' galaxies - II. A possible signature of massive extremely metal-poor or metal-free stars in z=3.1 Ly-alpha emitters

Akio K. Inoue, K. Kousai, I. Iwata +9

(Abridged) Deep NB359 imaging with Subaru by Iwata et al. have detected surprisingly strong Lyman continuum (LyC; ~900A in the rest-frame) from some LAEs at z=3.1. However, the red…

The nature of z ~ 2.3 Lyman-alpha emitters

Kim K. Nilsson, Göran Östlin, Palle Møller +4

We study the multi-wavelength properties of a set of 171 Ly-alpha emitting candidates at redshift z = 2.25 found in the COSMOS field, with the aim of understanding the underlying s…

Rest-frame ultraviolet spectrum of the gravitationally lensed galaxy `the 8 o'clock arc': stellar and interstellar medium properties

M. Dessauges-Zavadsky, S. D'Odorico, D. Schaerer +3

We present the first detailed analysis of the rest-frame UV spectrum of the gravitationally lensed Lyman break galaxy (LBG), the `8 o'clock arc'. The spectrum of the 8 o'clock arc…
