Ítem ODIN: Where Do Lyα Blobs Live? Contextualizing Blob Environments within Large-scale Structure(Institute of Physics, 2023-07) Ramakrishnan, Vandana; Moon, Byeongha; Im, Sang Hyeok; Farooq, Rameen; Lee, Kyoung-Soo; Gawiser, Eric; Yang, Yujin; Park, Changbom; Hwang, Ho Seong; Valdes, Francisco; Artale, Maria Celeste; Ciardullo, RobinWhile many Lyα blobs (LABs) are found in and around several well-known protoclusters at high redshift, how they trace the underlying large-scale structure is still poorly understood. In this work, we utilize 5352 Lyα emitters (LAEs) and 129 LABs at z = 3.1 identified over a ∼9.5 deg2 area in early data from the ongoing One-hundred-deg2 DECam Imaging in Narrowbands (ODIN) survey to investigate this question. Using LAEs as tracers of the underlying matter distribution, we identify overdense structures as galaxy groups, protoclusters, and filaments of the cosmic web. We find that LABs preferentially reside in regions of higher-than-average density and are located in closer proximity to overdense structures, which represent the sites of protoclusters and their substructures. Moreover, protoclusters hosting one or more LABs tend to have a higher descendant mass than those which do not. Blobs are also strongly associated with filaments of the cosmic web, with ∼70% of the population being within a projected distance of ∼2.4 pMpc from a filament. We show that the proximity of LABs to protoclusters is naturally explained by their association with filaments as large cosmic structures are where many filaments converge. The contiguous wide-field coverage of the ODIN survey allows us to establish firmly a connection between LABs as a population and filaments of the cosmic web for the first time.Ítem The One-hundred-deg2 DECam Imaging in Narrowbands (ODIN): Survey Design and Science Goals(Institute of Physics, 2024-02-11) Lee, Kyoung-Soo; Gawiser, Eric; Park, Changbom; Yang, Yujin; Valdes, Francisco; Lang, Dustin; Ramakrishnan, Vandana; Moon, Byeongha; Firestone, Nicole; Appleby, Stephen; Artale, Maria Celeste; Andrews, Moira; Bauer, Franz; Benda, Barbara; Broussard, Adam; Chiang, Yi-Kuan; Ciardullo, Robin; Dey, Arjun; Farooq, Rameen; Gronwall, Caryl; Guaita, Lucia; Huang, Yun; Hwang, Ho Seong; Sang Hyeok; Jeong, Woong-Seob; Karthikeyan, Shreya; Kim, Hwihyun; Kim, Seongjae; Kumar, Ankit; Nagaraj, Gautam R.; Nantais, Julie; Padilla, Nelson; Park, Jaehong; Pope, Alexandra; Popescu, Roxana; Schlegel, David; Seo, Eunsuk; Singh, Akriti; Song, Hyunmi; Troncoso, Paulina; Vivas, A. Katherina; Zabludoff, Ann; Zenteno, AlfredoWe describe the survey design and science goals for One-hundred-deg2 DECam Imaging in Narrowbands (ODIN), a NOIRLab survey using the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) to obtain deep (AB ∼ 25.7) narrowband images over an unprecedented area of sky. The three custom-built narrowband filters, N419, N501, and N673, have central wavelengths of 419, 501, and 673 nm and respective FWHM of 7.5, 7.6, and 10.0 nm, corresponding to Lyα at z = 2.4, 3.1, and 4.5 and cosmic times of 2.8, 2.1, and 1.4 Gyr, respectively. When combined with even deeper, public broadband data from the Hyper Suprime-Cam, DECam, and in the future, the Legacy Survey of Space and Time, the ODIN narrowband images will enable the selection of over 100,000 Lyα-emitting (LAE) galaxies at these epochs. ODIN-selected LAEs will identify protoclusters as galaxy overdensities, and the deep narrowband images enable detection of highly extended Lyα blobs (LABs). Primary science goals include measuring the clustering strength and dark matter halo connection of LAEs, LABs, and protoclusters, and their respective relationship to filaments in the cosmic web. The three epochs allow for the redshift evolution of these properties to be determined during the period known as Cosmic Noon, where star formation was at its peak. The narrowband filter wavelengths are designed to enable interloper rejection and further scientific studies by revealing [O ii] and [O iii] at z = 0.34, Lyα and He ii 1640 at z = 3.1, and Lyman continuum plus Lyα at z = 4.5. Ancillary science includes similar studies of the lower-redshift emission-line galaxy samples and investigations of nearby star-forming galaxies resolved into numerous [O iii] and [S ii] emitting regions.
