The traditional view that Ly-alpha emission and dust should be mutually exclusive has been questioned more and more often; most notably, the observations of Ly-alpha emission from ULIRGs seem to counter this view. In this paper we seek to…
We report the discovery of a probable large scale structure composed of many galaxy clumps around the known twin clusters at z=1.26 and z=1.27 in the Lynx region. Our analysis is based on deep, panoramic, and multi-colour imaging…
We report the discovery of a remarkable Ly$\alpha$ emitting galaxy at z = 7.2782, JADES-GS-z7-LA, with EW$_0$(Ly$\alpha$) $= 388.0 \pm 88.8$\AA and UV magnitude -17.0. The spectroscopic redshift is confirmed via rest-frame optical lines [O…
We report the discovery of a multiply lensed Lyman-$\alpha$ blob (LAB) behind the galaxy cluster AS1063 using the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) on the Very Large Telescope (VLT). The background source is at $z=$ 3.117 and is…
We present the results of our Keck/DEIMOS spectroscopic follow-up of candidate galaxies of i-band-dropout protocluster candidate galaxies at $z\sim6$ in the COSMOS field. We securely detect Lyman-$\alpha$ emission lines in 14 of the 30…
We exploit ALMA 870um observations to measure the star-formation rates (SFRs) of eight X-ray detected Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) in a z~3.1 protocluster, four of which reside in extended Ly-alpha haloes (often termed Ly-alpha blobs:…
We have obtained three-dimensional maps of the universe in $\sim200\times200\times80$ comoving Mpc$^3$ (cMpc$^3$) volumes each at $z=5.7$ and $6.6$ based on a spectroscopic sample of 179 galaxies that achieves $\gtrsim80$\% completeness…
Due to the invention of new powerful instruments in the recent past (e.g. 10m class telescopes) high redshift galaxies are no longer a curiosity. High redshift young star forming galaxies can be effectively discriminated from the much more…
We present deep wide-field medium-band imaging in redshifted Lyman alpha of fields surrounding HST detections of faint emitters, to characterize their larger-scale environment. The radio galaxy 53W002 was previously found to be part of a…
The paper presents an analysis of multi-wavelength data of two Lynds Bright Nebulae (LBN), LBN 140.07+01.64 and LBN 140.77$-$1.42. The 1420 MHz continuum map reveals an extended Y-shaped feature (linear extent ~3.7 deg), which consists of a…
We present discovery spectra of a sample of eight lensed galaxies at high redshift, 3.7<z<5.2, selected by their red colors in the fields of four massive clusters: A1689, A2219, A2390, and AC114. Metal absorption lines are detected and…
We present integral field spectroscopy of a Lyman-alpha blob at redshift 2.38, with a spectral resolution three times better than previous published work. As with previous observations, the blob has a chaotic velocity structure, much of…
We present intermediate resolution ($\sim3$ \AA ) spectra of the Ly$\alpha$ emission from 15 high redshift radio galaxies ($z>2$). Together with previously published spectra we analyze data for a sample of 18 objects. In 11 of the 18 radio…
We present observations with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph onboard the Hubble Space Telescope of eight compact star-forming galaxies at redshifts z=0.02811-0.06540, with low oxygen abundances 12+log(O/H)=7.43-7.82 and extremely high…
Studies of the formation and early history of galaxies have been hampered by the difficulties inherent in detecting faint galaxy populations at high redshift. As a consequence, observations at the highest redshifts (3.5 < z < 5) have been…
Combining a new, increased dataset of 8 QSOs covering the Ly-alpha forest at redshifts 1.5 < z < 3.6 from VLT/UVES observations with previously published results, we have investigated the properties of the Ly-alpha forest at 1.5 < z < 4. We…
We report results of a deep wide-field narrowband survey for redshift z~5.7 Ly alpha emitters carried out with SuprimeCam on Subaru 8.3-m telescope. Deep narrowband imaging of the SSA22 field through a 120 A bandpass filter centered at 8150…
