Deep learning approach for identification of H II regions during reionization in 21-cm observations - II. Foreground contamination

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Emma Elizabeth Tolley, Michele Bianco, Tianyue Chen

The upcoming Square Kilometre Array Observatory will produce images of neutral hydrogen distribution during the epoch of reionization by observing the corresponding 21-cm signal. However, the 21-cm signal will be subject to instrumental limitations such as ...

CEERS: Diversity of Lyα Emitters during the Epoch of Reionization

Michaela Hirschmann

We analyze rest-frame ultraviolet to optical spectra of three z similar or equal to 7.47-7.75 galaxies whose Ly alpha emission lines were previously detected with Keck/MOSFIRE observations, using the JWST/NIRSpec observations from the Cosmic Evolution Earl ...

MUSE- inspired view of the quasar Q2059-360, its Lyman alpha blob, and its neighborhood

Frédéric Courbin, Pierre North, Claudio Gorgoni

The radio-quiet quasar Q2059-360 at redshift z = 3 : 08 is known to be close to a small Lyman ff blob (LAB) and to be absorbed by a proximate damped Ly ff (PDLA) system. Here, we present the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) integral field spectrosc ...

Gaia Data Release 1 Open cluster astrometry: performance, limitations, and future prospects

Stephan Morgenthaler, Shuangqing Liao

Context. The first Gaia Data Release contains the Tycho-Gaia Astrometric Solution (TGAS). This is a subset of about 2 million stars for which, besides the position and photometry, the proper motion and parallax are calculated using Hipparcos and Tycho-2 po ...

The Gaia-ESO Survey: dynamics of ionized and neutral gas in the Lagoon nebula (M 8)

Carmela Lardo

Aims. We present a spectroscopic study of the dynamics of the ionized and neutral gas throughout the Lagoon nebula (M 8), using VLT-FLAMES data from the Gaia-ESO Survey. The new data permit exploration of the physical connections between the nebular gas an ...

Long term dynamics of the high luminosity Large Hadron Collider with crab cavities

Alexej Grudiev, Javier Barranco Garcia, Riccardo De Maria

The High Luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) aims to achieve an integrated luminosity of 200-300 fb(-1) per year, including the contribution from the upgrade of the injector chain. For the HL-LHC the larger crossing angle together with ...

Physical properties and evolutionary state of the Lyman alpha emitting starburst galaxy IRAS 08339+6517

Hakim Atek

Context. Though Ly alpha emission is one of the most used tracers of massive star formation at high redshift, it is strongly affected by neutral gas radiation transfer effects. A correct understanding of these effects is required to properly quantify the s ...

Influence of physical galaxy properties on Ly alpha escape in star-forming galaxies

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Hakim Atek

Context. Among the different observational techniques used to select high-redshift galaxies, the hydrogen recombination line Lyman-alpha (Ly alpha) is of particular interest because it gives access to the measurement of cosmological quantities such as the ...

Cold gas in the inner regions of intermediate redshift clusters

Pascale Jablonka

Determining the nature and modes of star formation at galactic scales requires an understanding of the relationship between the gas content of a galaxy and its star formation rate. Remarkable progress has been made in understanding the conversion mechanism ...
