The Sunburst Arc: Direct Lyman α escape observed in the brightest known lensed galaxy

© ESO, 2017. We present rest-frame ultraviolet and optical spectroscopy of the brightest lensed galaxy yet discovered, at redshift z = 2.4. The source reveals a characteristic triple-peaked Lyman α profile that has been predicted in various theoretical works, but to our knowledge has not been unambi...
