Connecting Lyα and Ionizing Photon Escape in the Sunburst Arc

Connecting Lyα and Ionizing Photon Escape in the Sunburst Arc

We investigate the Ly α and Lyman continuum (LyC) properties of the Sunburst Arc, a z = 2.37 gravitationally lensed galaxy with a multiply imaged, compact region leaking LyC and a triple-peaked Ly α profile indicating direct Ly α escape. Non-LyC-leaking regions show a redshifted Ly α peak, a redshif...
