Evidence for Low Extinction in Actively Star Forming Galaxies at z6.5
We present a search for the [CII] 158micron fine structure line (a main
cooling line of the interstellar medium) and the underlying far-infrared (FIR)
continuum in three high-redshift (6.6<z<8.2) star-forming galaxies using the
IRAM Plateau de Bure interferometer. We targeted two Lyman-Alpha-selected
galaxies (Lyman-Alpha-Emitters, LAEs) with moderate UV-based star formation
rates (SFR~20 M_sun/yr; Himiko at z=6.6 and IOK-1 at z=7.0) and a Gamma Ray
Burst (GRB) host galaxy (GRB 090423 at z~8.2). Based on our 3 sigma rest-frame
FIR continuum limits, previous (rest-frame) UV continuum measurements and
spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting, we rule out SED shapes similar to
highly obscured galaxies (e.g. Arp220, M82) and less extreme dust-rich nearby
spiral galaxies (e.g. M51) for the LAEs. Conservatively assuming a SED shape
typical of local spiral galaxies we derive upper limits for the FIR-based star
formation rates (SFRs) of ~70 M_sun/yr, ~50 M_sun/yr and ~40 M_sun/yr for
Himiko, IOK-1 and GRB 090423, respectively. For the LAEs these limits are only
a factor ~3 higher than the published UV-based SFRs (uncorrected for
extinction). This indicates that the dust obscuration in the z>6 LAEs studied
here is lower by a factor of a few than what has recently been found in some
LAEs at lower redshift (2<z<3.5) with similar UV-based SFRs. A low obscuration
in our z>6 LAE sample is consistent with recent rest-frame UV studies of z~7
Lyman-Break-Galaxies (LBGs).Comment: Accepted for publication in the Astrophysical Journa

Sequencing of SARS-CoV-2 RNA Fragments in Wastewater Detects the Spread of New Variants during Major Events
The sequencing of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in wastewater is an unbiased method to detect the spread of emerging variants and to track regional infection dynamics, which is especially useful in case of limited testing and clinical sequencing. To test how major international events influence the spread of new variants we have sequenced SARS-CoV-2 RNA in the wastewater samples of Davos, Landquart, Lostallo, and St. Moritz in the Swiss canton of Grisons in the time around the international sports competitions in Davos and St. Moritz in December 2021, and additionally in May 2022 and January 2023 in Davos and St. Moritz during the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos. The prevalence of the variants identified from the wastewater sequencing data showed that the Omicron variant BA.1 had spread in Davos and St. Moritz during the international sporting events hosted there in December 2021. This spread was associated with an increase in case numbers, while it was not observed in Landquart and Lostallo. Another instance of new variant spread occurred during the WEF in January 2023, when the Omicron variant BA.2.75 arrived in Davos but not in St. Moritz. We can therefore conclude that major international events promote the spread of new variants in the respective host region, which has important implications for the protective measures that should be taken
