Mapping the working of environmental effects in A963

Boris Deshev, Christopher Haines, Ho Seong Hwang +5

We qualitatively assess and map the relative contribution of pre-processing and cluster related processes to the build-up of A963, a massive cluster at z=0.2 showing an unusually h…

Diverse properties of Ly-alpha emission in low-redshift compact star-forming galaxies with extremely high [OIII]/[OII] ratios

Y. I. Izotov, D. Schaerer, G. Worseck +5

We present observations with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph onboard the Hubble Space Telescope of eight compact star-forming galaxies at redshifts z=0.02811-0.06540, with low oxyg…

Puzzling Lyman-alpha line profiles in green pea galaxies

Ivana Orlitova, Anne Verhamme, Alaina Henry +4

Recent observations have discovered an escape of ionizing Lyman-continuum radiation from a population of compact, actively star-forming galaxies at redshift z~0.3, also known as "g…

Do galaxies that leak ionizing photons have extreme outflows?

J. Chisholm, I. Orlitová, D. Schaerer +5

To reionize the early universe, high-energy photons must escape the galaxies that produce them. It has been suggested that stellar feedback drives galactic outflows out of star-for…

The VIMOS Ultra Deep Survey: The role of HI kinematics and HI column density on the escape of Lyalpha photons in star-forming galaxies at 2<z<4

L. Guaita, M. Talia, L. Pentericci +22

We selected a sample of 76 Lya emitting galaxies from the VIMOS Ultra Deep Survey (VUDS) at 2<z<4. We estimated the velocity of the neutral gas flowing out of the interstellar medi…

The ionizing photon production efficiency of compact z~0.3 Lyman continuum leakers and comparison with high redshift galaxies

D. Schaerer, Y. I. Izotov, A. Verhamme +4

We have recently discovered five Lyman continuum leaking galaxies at z~0.3, selected for their compactness, intense star-formation, and high [OIII]/[OII] ratio (Izotov et al. 2016a…
