Understanding dust attenuation in galaxies at both integrated and spatially resolved scales is fundamental for accurately determining the physical properties of galaxies. Recent high-spatial-resolution observations with ALMA and JWST enable investigations of spatially resolved properties in high-redshift galaxies ($z \gtrsim 6$), but spatial variations in dust observables remain poorly constrained. We use cosmological zoom-in simulations combined with post-processing dust radiative transfer calculations for 376 clumpy galaxies at $z=6$-$9$ with stellar masses of $M_* \gtrsim 10^9 \, M_\odot$. For each system, we investigate dust attenuation and re-emission properties for three components: system-integrated, individual clumps, and diffuse regions. We find that system-integrated attenuation curves are grayer than the Calzetti curve, even when assuming MW- or SMC-type dust. Attenuation curves of individual clumps are even grayer, while diffuse regions exhibit steeper curves owing to enhanced scattering in optically thin environments. Since the effects of optical depth and dust-star geometry are intrinsically degenerate in attenuation curves, we introduce a toy model based on the IRX-$Δβ$ plane, where $Δβ$ denotes the difference between attenuated and intrinsic UV slopes. Applying this framework, we find that clumps have dust column densities approximately an order of magnitude higher than system-integrated values and exhibit co-spatial or dust-extended geometries. In contrast, system-integrated attenuation reflects star-extended geometries driven by contributions from optically thin diffuse regions. We apply this framework to REBELS-IFU galaxies at $z \sim 7$ and find good agreement with our simulation predictions.

SED Analysis of 13 Spectroscopically Confirmed Galaxies at z$\simeq$6 to Constrain UV-Slope, Model Dust Attenuation and Escape Fractions
宇宙中氢的再电离被认为是通过红移$z\simeq5.5-6$完成的。为了探索这个时代,斯巴鲁深场(SDF)的星系观测已经在$z\simeq6$确定了100多个星系,其中许多通过后续观测得到了光谱学的证实。我们用CIGALE和Dense Basis代码模拟了13个SDF星系的光谱能量分布(SED)。模拟深红外测光有可能限制星系的莱曼连续(LyC)逃逸分数(\fesc)。我们使用模拟的星云发射线,并发现隐含的逃逸分数范围从\textbf{0 to 0.8 with a median of $\sim$0.35 for Dense Basis and $\sim$0.55 for CIGALE.}数据中存在显着的不确定性,使拟合结果在一个大范围的\fesc \为个别对象。这意味着星系的\fesc -值可能足够高,足以完成$z\sim6$的再电离。此外,我们没有发现强的趋势之间的UV斜率$β$或\EBminV与模型\fesc。如果是真的,缺乏趋势表明,除了星云发射或尘埃灭绝之外,其他因素可能导致LyC逃逸,例如在ISM中存在的洞具有足够宽的开口角度,来自超新星和/或弱AGN的流出,导致一系列隐含的\fesc -值取决于每个星系的视角。目前的\textit{HST, Spitzer}和基于地面的光度和星系模型的误差仍然很大,因此需要用\textit{James Webb Space Tele…

First Spectroscopic Confirmations of z ~ 7.0 Lya Emitting Galaxies in the LAGER Survey
窄带成像是发现大量z~6.6的高红移Lya发射星系(LAEs)的一种非常成功的方法。然而,在z> 7时,只有3个窄带选择性LAEs(2个在z~6.9-7.0,1个在z~7.3)得到了光谱证实,这阻碍了对这一关键时期宇宙再电离和星系演化的广泛研究。利用大面积窄带巡天LAGER(Lyman-Alpha Galerkin at the End of Reionization),我们在COSMOS场中选取了23个z~6.9的候选LAEs。在这项工作中,我们提出了12个候选人使用IMACS麦哲伦光谱的后续观测。对于其中的9个,观测足够深,可以检测到预期的线。在六个光源中识别出Lya发射线(成功率为2/3),包括3个发光的LAE,Lya光度为L(Lya)~ 10^{43.5} erg/s,是已知光谱证实的星系中最高的,>~7.0。这使光谱学确认的z>~7处的窄带选择LAE的样本大小增加了两倍,并确认了我们先前基于光度测量样本导出的Lya光度函数中的亮端凸起,支持斑片状再电离场景。两个发光的LAE出现物理联系,投影距离为1.1 pMpc,速度差为~ 170 km/s。它们可能位于由它们自己或与近邻产生的共同电离气泡中,这减少了Lya的IGM衰减。在一个源中可以看到一条暂时狭窄的NV $λ$ 1240线,暗示着中心大质量黑洞的活动,富含金属的线发射气体。
