Tracing large-scale structure at high redshift with Lyman-alpha emitters: the effect of peculiar velocities
P. Monaco, P. Moller, J. Fynbo +3
We investigate the effect of peculiar velocities on the redshift space distribution of z>~2 galaxies, and we focus in particular on Ly-alpha emitters. We generate catalogues of dar…
The extended Lyman-alpha emission surrounding the z=3.04 radio-quiet QSO1205-30: Primordial infalling gas illuminated by the quasar?
M. Weidinger, P. Moller, J. P. U. Fynbo +1
We present spectroscopic observations obtained with the FORS1 instrument on the ESO VLT under good seeing conditions of the radio-quiet z_em = 3.04 quasar Q1205-30 and its associat…
The Lyman-alpha glow of gas falling into the dark matter halo of a z=3 galaxy
Michael Weidinger, Palle Moller, Johan P. U. Fynbo
Quasars are the visible signatures of super-massive black holes in the centres of distant galaxies. It has been suggested that quasars are formed during ``major merger events'' whe…
The line-of-sight towards GRB 030429 at z = 2.66: Probing the matter at stellar, galactic and intergalactic scales
P. Jakobsson, J. Hjorth, J. P. U. Fynbo +21
We report the discovery of the optical afterglow (OA) of the long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB 030429, and present a comprehensive optical/near-infrared dataset used to probe the m…
On the Afterglow of the X-Ray Flash of July 23 2003: Photometric evidence for an off-axis Gamma-Ray Burst with an associated Supernova?
J. P. U. Fynbo, J. Sollerman, J. Hjorth +31
We present optical and near-infrared follow-up observations of the X-Ray Flash (XRF) of July 23 2003. Our observations in the R-band cover the temporal range from 4.2 h to 64 days…
Small-scale variations in the radiating surface of the GRB 011211 jet
P. Jakobsson, J. Hjorth, E. Ramirez-Ruiz +12
We report the discovery of the afterglow of the X-ray rich, long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB 011211 and present evidence for oscillatory behaviour in its early optical light curve…
