The Lyman Alpha Reference Sample XI: Efficient Turbulence Driven Ly{\alpha} Escape and the Analysis of IR, CO and [C II]158 {\mu}m

Understand

We study the global dust and (molecular) gas content in the Lyman Alpha Reference Sample (LARS), i.e.

• 14 local star-forming galaxies.
• We characterize their interstellar medium and relate newly derived properties to quantities relevant for Ly$\alpha$ escape.
• We observed LARS galaxies with Herschel/PACS, SOFIA/FIFI-LS, the IRAM 30m telescope and APEX, targeting far-infrared (FIR) continuum and emission lines of [C II]158$\mu$m, [O I]63$\mu$m, [O III]88$\mu$m and low-J CO lines.
