Lyman-alpha spectral properties of five newly discovered Lyman continuum emitters
A. Verhamme, I. Orlitova, D. Schaerer +4
We have recently reported the discovery of five low redshift Lyman continuum (LyC) emitters (LCEs, hereafter) with absolute escape fractions fesc(LyC) ranging from 6 to 13%, higher…
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…
Detection of high Lyman continuum leakage from four low-redshift compact star-forming galaxies
Y. I. Izotov, D. Schaerer, T. X. Thuan +4
Following our first detection reported in Izotov et al. (2016), we present the detection of Lyman continuum (LyC) radiation of four other compact star-forming galaxies observed wit…
Lyman continuum leaking from the compact star-forming dwarf galaxy J0925+1403
Y. I. Izotov, I. Orlitova, D. Schaerer +4
One of the key questions in observational cosmology is the identification of the sources responsible for ionisation of the Universe after the cosmic Dark Ages, when the baryonic ma…
