Mean Lyα luminosity (top panels) and UV magnitude (bottom panels) as a function of the LAE multiplicity for redshifts z = 2.4 (left), z = 3.1 (middle), and z = 4.5 (right). Solid black lines correspond to the TNG100-true multiples, dashed pink lines show the TNG-identified multiples (with rpmax = 100 pkpc at z = 2.4, 70 pkpc at z = 3.1, and 50 pkpc at z = 4.5), and dotted cyan lines correspond to the ODIN-COSMOS sample under the same selection criteria. The lighter black and pink lines indicate the mean UV magnitudes perturbed by photometric uncertainties for the mock samples. Error bars represent the standard error of the mean. Overall, both Lyα luminosity and UV magnitude tend to increase slightly with LAE multiplicity, supporting the idea that multiple LAEs trace more massive and actively star-forming halos.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.
