Discovery of a giant and luminous Lyα+C IV+He II nebula at z = 3.326 with extreme emission line ratios
We present the discovery of HLock01-LAB, a luminous and large Lyα nebula at z = 3.326. Medium-band imaging and long-slit spectroscopic observations with the Gran Telescopio Canarias reveal extended emission in the Lyα 1215 Å, C IV 1550 Å, and He II 1640 Å lines over ˜100 kpc, and a total luminosity LLyα = (6.4 ± 0.1)×1044 erg s-1.
