We present Spitzer Space Telescope observations of the z=2.38 lya-emitter over-density associated with galaxy cluster J2143-4423, the largest known structure (110 Mpc) above z=2. We imaged 22 of the 37 known lya-emitters within the filament-like structure, using the MIPS 24um band. We detected 6 of the lya-emitters, including 3 of the 4 clouds of extended (>50 kpc) lyman alpha emission, also known as Lya Blobs. Conversion from rest-wavelength 7um to total far-infrared luminosity using locally derived correlations suggests all the detected sources are in the class of ULIRGs, with some reaching Hyper-LIRG energies. Lya blobs frequently show evidence for interaction, either in HST imaging, or the proximity of multiple MIPS sources within the Lya cloud. This connection suggests that interaction or even mergers may be related to the production of Lya blobs. A connection to mergers does not in itself help explain the origin of the Lya blobs, as most of the suggested mechanisms for creating Lya blobs (starbursts, AGN, cooling flows) could also be associated with galaxy interactions.
In the optical sky, minutes-duration transients from cosmological distances are rare. Known objects that give rise to such transients include gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), the most luminous explosions in the universe that have been detected at redshift as
Based on far-infrared spectroscopy of a small sample of nearby infrared-bright and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) with the ISO Long Wavelength Spectrometer, we find a dramatic progression in ionic/atomic fine-structure emission line and mol
Deep surveys of the sky at millimeter wavelengths have revealed a population of ultra-luminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) at high redshifts. These appear similar to local objects of similar luminosities (such as Arp220) but are much more ``important
We present Herschel-PACS observations of rest-frame mid-infrared and far-infrared spectral line emissions from two lensed, ultra-luminous infrared galaxies at high redshift: MIPS J142824.0+352619 (MIPS J1428), a starburst-dominated system at z = 1.3,
Recent observations have shown that the characteristic luminosity of the rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) luminosity function does not significantly evolve at 4 < z < 7 and is approximately M*_UV ~ -21. We investigate this apparent non-evolution by examin
