We present a redshift z=6.535 galaxy discovered by its Lyman alpha emission in a 9180A narrowband image from the Large Area Lyman Alpha (LALA) survey. The Ly-a line luminosity (1.1e43 erg/s) is among the largest known for star forming…

We present the evolution of Ly$\alpha$ emission derived from 53 galaxies at $z=6.6-13.2$ that are identified by multiple JWST/NIRSpec spectroscopy programs of ERS, GO, DDT, and GTO. These galaxies fall on the star-formation main sequence…

Multi-line imaging of the nearby disk galaxy NGC 1482 with the Taurus Tunable Filter (TTF) on the Anglo-Australian Telescope reveals a remarkable hourglass-shaped [N II] 6583/H-alpha excitation structure suggestive of a galactic wind…

Recent evidence suggests that high-redshift Ly-alpha emitting galaxies (LAEs) with logL(Ly-alpha) > 43.5 erg/s, referred to as ultraluminous LAEs (ULLAEs), may show less evolution than lower-luminosity LAEs in the redshift range z=5.7-6.6.…

In the course of our on-going search for serendipitous high-redshift LyA emission in deep archival Keck spectra, we discovered two LyA emission line candidates in a moderate dispersion ($\lambda/{\Delta \lambda} +~ 1200$) spectrogram. Both…

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 have obtained the first constraints on extended Ly-alpha emission at z ~ 1 in a sample of five radio galaxies. We detect Ly-alpha emission from four of the five galaxies. The Ly-alpha luminosities range from 0.1 - 4 times 10^43 erg/s and…

We report the detection of extended Ly alpha emission around individual star-forming galaxies at redshifts z = 3-6 in an ultradeep exposure of the Hubble Deep Field South obtained with MUSE on the ESO-VLT. The data reach a limiting surface…

We present a detailed study of a unusually bright, lensed galaxy at $z=5.424$ discovered within the CFHTLS imaging survey. With an observed flux of $i_{\rm AB}=23.0$, J141446.82+544631.9 is one of the brightest galaxies known at $z>5$. It…

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 present optical spectroscopy of two samples of GALEX grism selected Ly alpha emitters (LAEs): one at z=0.195-0.44 and the other at z=0.65-1.25. We have also observed a comparison sample of galaxies in the same redshift intervals with the…

We describe the results of a new, wide-field survey for z=3.1 Ly-alpha emission-line galaxies (LAEs) in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDF-S). By using a nearly top-hat 5010 Angstrom filter and complementary broadband photometry…

The recently discovered z=10 galaxy (Pello et al 2004) has a strong Lyman alpha emission line that is consistent with being surprisingly symmetric, even given the relatively poor quality of its spectrum. The blue wing of a Lyman alpha line…

Aims: We investigate the nature of the source GDS J033218.92-275302.7at redshift ~ 5.56. Methods: The SED of the source is well sampled by 16 bands photometry, from UV-optical, near infrared and mid-infrared (MID-IR).The detection of signal…

The 8m class telescopes in the ground-based optical astronomy together with help from the ultra-sharp eye of the Hubble Space Telescope have enabled us to observe forming galaxies beyond redshift $z=5$. In particular, more than twenty…

Galactic winds are a prime suspect for the metal enrichment of the intergalactic medium and may have a strong influence on the chemical evolution of galaxies and the nature of QSO absorption line systems. We use a sample of 1406 galaxy…

We report the discovery of a Lyman alpha emitting galaxy at z = 6.518. The single line was found in the 43 square arcmin VLT/FORS field by slitless spectroscopy limited to the atmospheric window at 9100 A (sampling Lya at 6.4 < z < 6.6).…

We report the serendipitous discovery of two objects close in projection with fairly strong emission lines at long wavelength (~9190 A). One (A) seems not to be hosted by any galaxy brighter than V(555)=27.5, or I(814)=26.7 (Vega-based…

Spatially extended Ly-alpha sources that are faint and/or compact in coninuum are candidates for extremely young (~< 10^7 yrs) galaxies at high redshifts. We present medium-resolution (R~2000) spectroscopy of such extended Ly-alpha sources…
