Compact Size, High ΣSFR: Defining Morphological Features of Lyα Emitters

The mechanisms of Ly α photon escape are key to understanding galaxy evolution and cosmic reionization, yet remain poorly understood. We investigate the UV-continuum sizes of 23 Ly α emitters (LAEs) at Cosmic Noon (1.7 < z < 3.3), extending previous size analyses to include fainter galaxies ( M _UV...
