The VANDELS survey: a strong correlation between Ly alpha equivalent width and stellar metallicity at 3 <= z <= 5
We present the results of a new study investigating the relationship between observed Ly α equivalent width (Wλ(Ly α)) and the metallicity of the ionizing stellar population (Z★) for a sample of 768 star-forming galaxies at 3 ≤ z ≤ 5 dra...
