We present new observations of Lyman-$\alpha$ (Ly$\alpha$) Blob 1 (LAB1) in the SSA22 protocluster region ($z$ = 3.09) using the Keck Cosmic Web Imager (KCWI) and the Keck Multi-object Spectrometer for Infrared Exploration (MOSFIRE). By…

We report the detection at 850um of the central source in SSA22-LAB1, the archetypal Lyman-alpha Blob (LAB), a 100kpc-scale radio-quiet emission-line nebula at z=3.1. The flux density of the source, $S_{850}=4.6\pm1.1$mJy implies the…

Exploring the origin of Ly-alpha nebulae (blobs) requires measurements of their gas kinematics that are impossible with only the resonant, optically-thick LyA line. To define gas motions relative to the systemic velocity of the blob, the…

Context: Lyman $\alpha$ blobs (LABs) are large-scale radio-quiet Lyman $\alpha$ (Ly$\alpha$) nebula at high-$z$ that occur predominantly in overdense proto-cluster regions. Especially the prototypical SSA22a-LAB1 at $z=3.1$ has become an…

We present IRAM PdBI observations of the CO(3-2) and CO(5-4) line transitions from a Ly-alpha blob at z~2.7 in order to investigate the gas kinematics, determine the location of the dominant energy source, and study the physical conditions…

[Abridged] With VLT/X-shooter, we obtain optical and NIR spectra of six Ly-alpha blobs at z~2.3. Using three measures --- the velocity offset between the Lya line and the non-resonant [OIII] or H-alpha line (Dv_Lya), the offset of stacked…

We present observations of a giant Lyman-alpha blob in the SSA22 proto-cluster at z=3.1, SSA22-LAB1, taken with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). Dust continuum, along with [C II]158um, and CO(4-3) line emission have…

Existing ubiquitously in the Universe with the highest luminosity, the Lyman-$\alpha$ emission line encodes abundant physical information about the gaseous medium it interacts with. Nevertheless, the resonant nature of Ly$\alpha$…

We report observations of Lyman Alpha Blob 1 (LAB1) in the SSA 22 protocluster region (z=3.09) with the integral-field spectrograph SAURON. We increased the signal-to-noise in the spectra by more than a factor three compared to our previous…

We present a follow-up study to the imaging polarimetry performed by Hayes et. al. 2011 on LAB1 in the SSA22 protocluster region. Arguably the most well-known Lyman-$\alpha$ "blob", this radio-quiet emission-line nebula likely hosts a…

Spatially extended halos of H I Ly$\alpha$ emission are now ubiquitously found around high-redshift star-forming galaxies. But our understanding of the nature and powering mechanisms of these halos is still hampered by the complex radiative…

We investigate the radiative transfer of Lyman alpha photons through simplified anisotropic gas distributions, which represent physically motivated extensions of the popular 'shell-models'. Our study is motivated by the notion that (i)…

Ly-alpha blobs (LABs) offer insight into the complex interface between galaxies and their circumgalactic medium. Whilst some LABs have been found to contain luminous star-forming galaxies and active galactic nuclei that could potentially…

We perform Lyman-alpha radiative transfer calculations for reproducing Lyman-alpha properties of star-forming galaxies at high redshifts. We model a galaxy as a halo in which the density distributions of Lyman-alpha sources and H I plus…

We present high-resolution far-UV spectroscopy of the 14 galaxies of the Lyman Alpha Reference Sample; a sample of strongly star-forming galaxies at low redshifts ($0.028 < z < 0.18$). We compare the derived properties to global properties…

Lyman-$\alpha$ blobs (LABs) are spatially extended nebulae of emission in the Ly$\alpha$ line of hydrogen, seen at high redshifts$^{1,2}$, and most commonly found in the dense environment of star-forming galaxies$^{3,4}$. The origin of…

The resonantly scattered Lyman-$\alpha$ line illuminates the extended halos of neutral hydrogen in the circumgalactic medium of galaxies. We present integral field Keck Cosmic Web Imager observations of double-peaked, spatially extended…

We present spectroscopic measurements of the [OIII] emission line from two subregions of strong Lyman-alpha emission in a radio-quiet Lyman-alpha blob (LAB). The blob under study is LAB1 (Steidel et al. 2000) at z ~ 3.1, and the [OIII]…

We perform Lyman-$\alpha$ (Ly$\alpha$) Monte-Carlo radiative transfer calculations on a suite of $2500$ models of multiphase, outflowing media, which are characterized by $14$ parameters. We focus on the Ly$\alpha$ spectra emerging from…

We report the detection of a clumpy, blue-dominated Ly$\alpha$ emission at z = 3.066 located in the heart of a cosmic web filament in the MUSE eXtremely Deep Field (MXDF), spatially associated with the formation of two compact star-forming…
