We present the results of a Lya profile analysis of 12 Lya emitters (LAEs) at z = 2.2 with high-resolution Lya spectra. We find that all 12 objects have a Lya profile with the main peak redward of the systemic redshift defined by nebular…

We identified a peculiar proximate sub-damped Lya absorption system (sub-DLA) at z=3.234 with a neutral hydrogen column density of $N_{H} =10^{19.70\pm0.15}~\rm cm^{-2}$ toward the quasar SDSS J125903.26+621211.5 in two epoch optical…

We extend earlier work by studying in the quiet Sun the line profiles of the hydrogen Lyman-alpha and Lyman-beta lines, which were obtained quasi-simultaneously in a raster scan near disk center. The self-reversal depths of the Ly-a and…

We have carried out targetted sub-mm observations as part of a programme to explore the connection between the rest-frame UV and far-IR properties of star-forming galaxies at high redshift, which is currently poorly understood. On the one…

We present a physically motivated semi-analytic model to understand the clustering of high redshift Lyman Alpha Emitters (LAEs). We show that the model parameters constrained by the observed luminosity functions, can be used to predict…

The Lyman-alpha (Lya) emission has played an important role in detecting high-redshift galaxies, including recently distant ones at redshift z > 7. It may also contain important information on the origin of these galaxies. Here, we…

Using our 3D Lya radiation transfer code, we compute the radiation transfer of Lya and UV continuum photons including dust. Observational constraints on the neutral gas (column density, kinematics, etc.) are taken from other analysis of…

Using deep Keck spectroscopy of Lyman break galaxies selected from infrared imaging data taken with WFC3/IR onboard the Hubble Space Telescope, we present new evidence for a reversal in the redshift-dependent fraction of star forming…

We present an objective method to remove the stellar continuum emission from narrow-band images to derive emission-line images. The method is based on the skewness of the pixel histogram of the residual images. Specifically, we exploit a…

The Lya emission line of HI is intrinsically the brightest feature in the spectrum of astrophysical nebulae, making it a very attractive observational tool with which to survey galaxies. Moreover as a UV resonance line, Lya possesses…

The H I Lyman-alpha (Ly$\alpha$) emission, with a wavelength of 1216 \r{A}, is the brightest solar ultraviolet (UV) line. However, comprehensive observations of the Ly$\alpha$ emission line across the full solar disk remain limited. As part…
