Mergers Drive Structural Complexity but Not Starbursts in Lyman- Emitters at : A JWST Spatially Resolved View
Qi Song, F. S. Liu, Jian Ren +6
Recent observations with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) reveal that the merger fraction among Ly emitters (LAEs) at redshifts is significantly higher than previo…

The Size Evolution and the Size-Mass Relation of Lyman-Alpha Emitters across as Observed by JWST
Qi Song, F. S. Liu, Jian Ren +14
Understanding the morphological structures of Lyman-alpha emitters (LAEs) is crucial for unveiling their formation pathways and the physical origins of Ly emission. However, th…

The JWST Unveils the Bimodal Nature of Lyman Alpha Emitters at 3 <z<7: Pristine versus Merger-Driven Populations
Jian Ren, F. S. Liu, Nan Li +8
We present a systematic study of merging galaxies among Lyman-alpha emitters (LAEs) using JWST/NIRCam high-resolution imaging data. From a large sample of 817 spectroscopically con…
