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 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…
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…
Optical Photometry of GRB 021004: The First Month
Stephen T. Holland, Michael Weidinger, Johan P. U. Fynbo +17
We present U,B,V,R_C,and I_C photometry of the optical afterglow of the gamma-ray burst GRB 021004 taken at the Nordic Optical Telescope between approximately eight hours and 30 da…
Absorption Systems in the Spectrum of GRB 021004
P. Møller, J. P. U. Fynbo, J. Hjorth +10
We report on a 3600 s spectrum of GRB 021004 obtained with the Nordic Optical Telecope on La Palma 10.71 hours after the burst. We identify absorption lines from five systems at re…
