The Proximity Effect Around High Redshift Galaxies
Recent observations have shown that the intergalactic medium (IGM) is more transparent to Lyα photons close to Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) than at large distance from them, i.e. a proximity effect. Cosmological simulations including winds from LBGs have been so far unable to explain this trend. By coupling such simulations with the radiative transfer code CRASH, we investigate whether the addit...
متن کاملGalactic Wind Signatures around High Redshift Galaxies
We carry out cosmological chemodynamical simulations with different strengths of supernova (SN) feedback and study how galactic winds from star-forming galaxies affect the features of hydrogen (HI) and metal (CIV and OVI) absorption systems in the intergalactic medium at high redshift. We find that the outflows tend to escape to low density regions, and hardly affect the dense filaments visible...
متن کاملThe Lyα Forest Around High Redshift Galaxies
Motivated by the relative lack of neutral hydrogen around Lyman Break Galaxies deduced from recent observations, we investigate the properties of the Lyα forest around high redshift galaxies. The study is based on improved numerical SPH simulations implementing, in addition to standard processes, a new scheme for multiphase and outflow physics description. Although on large scales our simulatio...
متن کاملThe Polarization of Scattered Lyα Radiation Around High-Redshift Galaxies
The high-redshift Universe contains luminous Lyα emitting sources such as galaxies and quasars. The emitted Lyα radiation is often scattered by surrounding neutral hydrogen atoms. We show that the scattered Lyα radiation obtains a high level of polarization for a wide range of likely environments of high-redshift galaxies. For example, the back-scattered Lyα flux observed from galaxies surround...
متن کاملHigh-redshift Quasars Lensed by Spiral Galaxies
Given its extraordinary spatial resolution and sensitivity, the projected Next Generation Space Telescope (NGST) is likely to detect a large number of high-redshift QSOs lensed by spiral galaxies. Using realistic models for the QSO and spiral populations, we calculate the expected number density of detectable QSOs multiply imaged by spirals, and investigate the influence of various evolution ef...
