Giant star-forming regions (clumps) are widespread features of galaxies at $z approx 1-4$. Theory predicts that they can play a crucial role in galaxy evolution if they survive to stellar feedback for > 50 Myr. Numerical simulations show that clumps survival depends on the stellar feedback recipes that are adopted. Up to date, observational constraints on both clumps outflows strength and gas removal timescale are still uncertain. In this context, we study a line-emitting galaxy at redshift $z simeq 3.4$ lensed by the foreground galaxy cluster Abell 2895. Four compact clumps with sizes $lesssim$ 280 pc and representative of the low-mass end of clumps mass distribution (stellar masses $lesssim 2times10^8 {rm M}_odot$) dominate the galaxy morphology. The clumps are likely forming stars in a starbursting mode and have a young stellar population ($sim$ 10 Myr). The properties of the Lyman-$alpha$ (Ly$alpha$) emission and nebular far-ultraviolet absorption lines indicate the presence of ejected material with global outflowing velocities of $sim$ 200-300 km/s. Assuming that the detected outflows are the consequence of star formation feedback, we infer an average mass loading factor ($eta$) for the clumps of $sim$ 1.8 - 2.4 consistent with results obtained from hydro-dynamical simulations of clumpy galaxies that assume relatively strong stellar feedback. Assuming no gas inflows (semi-closed box model), the estimates of $eta$ suggest that the timescale over which the outflows expel the molecular gas reservoir ($simeq 7times 10^8 text{M}_odot$) of the four detected low-mass clumps is $lesssim$ 50 Myr.
Measuring the chemical composition of galaxies is crucial to our understanding of galaxy formation and evolution models. However, such measurements are extremely challenging for quiescent galaxies at high redshifts, which have faint stellar continua
We investigate the dependence of galaxy clustering at $z sim 4 - 7$ on UV-luminosity and stellar mass. Our sample consists of $sim$ 10,000 Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) in the XDF and CANDELS fields. As part of our analysis, the $M_star - M_{rm UV}$ re
We use numerical simulations of isolated galaxies to study the effects of stellar feedback on the formation and evolution of giant star-forming gas clumps in high-redshift, gas-rich galaxies. Such galactic disks are unstable to the formation of bound
Every star-forming galaxy has a halo of metal-enriched gas extending out to at least 100 kpc, as revealed by the absorption lines this gas imprints on the spectra of background quasars. However, quasars are sparse and typically probe only one narrow
Dwarf galaxies are thought to host the remnants of the early Universe seed black holes (BHs) and to be dominated by supernova feedback. However, recent studies suggest that BH feedback could also strongly impact their growth. We report the discovery
