Evidence for a Hard Ionizing Spectrum from a z=6.11 Stellar Population

Evidence for a Hard Ionizing Spectrum from a z=6.11 Stellar Population

We present the Magellan/FIRE detection of highly ionized C IV lambda 1550 and O III]lambda 1666 in a deep infrared spectrum of the z = 6.11 gravitationally lensed low-mass galaxy RXC J2248.7-4431-ID3, which has previously known Ly alpha. No corresponding emission is detected at the expected location...
