There is an intense debate in cultural astronomy on the importance of lunar standstills in prehistory or antiquity, and even on whether this elusive and...
Lupus I Observations from the 2010 Flight of the Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope for Polarimetry
The Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope for Polarimetry (BLASTPol) was created by adding polarimetric capability to the BLAST experiment that...
Lupus-TR-3b: A Low-Mass Transiting Hot Jupiter in the Galactic Plane?
We present a strong case for a transiting hot Jupiter planet identified during a single-field transit survey toward the Lupus Galactic plane. The object, Lupus...
Lyman break and ultraviolet-selected galaxies at z ˜ 1 - I. Stellar populations from the ALHAMBRA survey
We take advantage of the exceptional photometric coverage provided by the combination of GALEX data in the ultraviolet (UV) and the ALHAMBRA survey in the...
Lyman Break and ultraviolet-selected galaxies at z ˜ 1 - II. PACS 100 μm/160 μm FIR detections
In this work, we report the Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS) 100 μm/160 μm detections of a sample of 42 GALEX-selected and far-infrared (FIR)...
Lyman break galaxy close and interacting pairs at z ~ 3
Investigations of interacting and merging galaxies at high redshift are vital to our understanding of their formation and evolution. To date, the identification...
Lyman continuum leaker candidates at z ∼ 3-4 in the HDUV based on a spectroscopic sample of MUSE LAEs
Context. In recent years, a number of Lyman continuum (LyC) leaker candidates have been found at intermediate redshifts, providing insight into how the Universe...
Lyman-continuum leakage as dominant source of diffuse ionized gas in the Antennae galaxy
The Antennae galaxy (NGC 4038/39) is the closest major interacting galaxy system and is therefore often studied as a merger prototype. We present the first...
Lyα Emitting Galaxies (LAEs) at Cosmic Dawn: Implications and Predictions
The detection of Lyα emitting galaxies (LAEs) puts severe constraints on the reionization history. In this paper, we derive the properties of very high-z LAEs...
