Lyman Continuum Escape from Inhomogeneous ISM
We have studied the effects of gas density inhomogeneities on the escape of ionising Lyman continuum (Lyc) photons from Milky Way-type galaxies via 3D numerical simulations using the Monte Carlo radiative transfer code CRASH (Ciardi et al. 2001). To this aim a comparison between a smooth Gaussian distribution (GDD) and an inhomogeneous, fractal one (FDD) has been made with realistic assumptions...
متن کاملLyman “bump” galaxies - I. Spectral energy distribution of galaxies with an escape of nebular Lyman continuum
It is essential to know galactic emissivity and spectrum of Lyman continuum (LyC) in order to understand the cosmic reionization. Here we consider an escape of nebular LyC from galaxies and examine the consequent spectral energy distribution. It is usually assumed that hydrogen nebular LyC mostly produced by bound-free transitions is consumed within photo-ionized nebulae (so-called “on-the-spot...
متن کاملNEW CONSTRAINTS ON THE LYMAN CONTINUUM ESCAPE FRACTION AT z 1.3
We examine deep far-UV (16008) imaging of the HDF-N and the HUDF to search for leaking Lyman continuum radiation from starburst galaxies at z 1:3. There are 21 (primarily sub-L ) galaxies with spectroscopic redshifts between 1:1 < z < 1:5, and none are detected in the far-UV. We fit stellar population templates to the galaxies’ optical /near-infrared SEDs to determine the starburst age and leve...
متن کاملMission : Impossible ( Escape from the Lyman Limit ) ⋆
We investigate the intrinsic opacity of high-redshift galaxies to outgoing ionising photons using high-quality photometry of a sample of 27 spectroscopically-identified galaxies of redshift 1.9 < z < 3.5 in the Hubble Deep Field. Our measurement is based on maximum-likelihood fitting of model galaxy spectral energy distributions— including the effects of intrinsic Lyman-limit absorption and ran...
متن کاملThe Lyman continuum radiation escaping from galaxies
The Hα luminosity density of galaxies is used to calculate the local diffuse radiation field at the Lyman limit as resulting from star formation in the universe. The fraction of Lyman continuum radiation leaking out from galaxies through their neutral hydrogen is the most uncertain parameter of the calculation. A comparison of the diffuse radiation predicted from galaxies with that measured fro...
