On the Detectability of Lyman-alpha Emission in Star-forming Galaxies: The Role of Dust
Hakim Atek, Daniel Kunth, Matthew Hayes +3
Lyman-alpha is now widely used to investigate the galaxy formation and evolution in the high redshift universe. However, without a rigorous understanding of the processes which reg…
The FERRUM Project: experimental and theoretical transition rates of forbidden [Sc II] lines and radiative lifetimes of metastable Sc II levels
H. Hartman, J. Gurell, P. Lundin +6
Context. In many plasmas, long-lived metastable atomic levels are depopulated by collisions (quenched) before they decay radiatively. In low-density regions, however, the low colli…
Manganese trends in a sample of thin and thick disk stars. The origin of Mn
S. Feltzing, M. Fohlman, T. Bensby
CONTEXT: Manganese is an iron-peak element and although the nucleosynthesis path that leads to its formation is fairly well understood, it remains unclear which objects, SN II and/…
The nature of the metal-rich thick disk
T. Bensby, A. R. Zenn, M. S. Oey +1
We have traced the Galactic thick disk to its, to date, highest metallicities. Based on high-resolution spectroscopic observations of 187 F and G dwarf stars that kinematically can…
Lyman alpha emission from local starburst galaxies and high-z objects
G. Ostlin, M. Hayes, J. M. Mas-Hesse +3
We review the history and the current status of the understanding of the processes that regulate Lyman alpha emission from star-forming galaxies. We present some of the most recent…
OH in Messier 82
M. K. Argo, A. Pedlar, T. W. B. Muxlow +4
Several new main line OH masers have been detected in the nearby starburst galaxy M82. Eight masers have been detected to 5 sigma, six of which are new detections. Observations cov…
