Early Results from GLASS-JWST. XXII. Rest-frame UV–Optical Spectral Properties of Lyα Emitting Galaxies at 3 < z < 6

Ly α emission is possibly the best indirect diagnostic of Lyman continuum (LyC) escape since the conditions that favor the escape of Ly α photons are often the same that allow for the escape of LyC photons. In this work, we present the rest-frame UV–optical spectral characteristics of 11 Ly α emitti...
