Séminaire Kanak Saha (IUCAA, India)

Exploring the cosmic reionization and galaxy growth with AstroSat

Abstract

The ultraviolet Imaging Telescope on AstroSat has been used to create one of the deepest far-ultraviolet survey of star-forming galaxies and galaxy clusters. In this talk, I will discuss how some of these galaxies, called Lyman continuum emitters, can be detected with AstroSat. I will also present the global properties of Lyman alpha emitters at low redshifts.
