15 Results Surface brightness map: Without scattering

16 Results Surface brightness map: With scattering and dust; luminous regions affected more
17
17 Results Surface brightness profile: Prominent features smoothed out
18
18 Results Surface brightness profile: Dust helps to make profile looks more extended

25 Songaila (2004) IGM transmission z = 6.3 z = 5.7 z = 3.6

27 Summary Many factors help facilitating the escape of Ly Spectrum affected in a highly non- grey fashion f esc decreases with increasing M vir Dust makes SB profile even more extended Problem can be inversed: Predict results of future observations (e.g. Ultra-VISTA) You cannot escape the raptor
