Reduced Lyα flux at z > 6 is apparent in both continuum and line selected galaxies, and evolution is quantitatively consistent (MD & Wyithe 2012, MD et al. 2014).

The Visibility of Lyα Emitting Galaxies during Reionization
The inhomogeneous nature of reionization, and the presence of large bubbles promote the visibility of Lyα emitting galaxies during reionization.
Movie by M. Alvarez
The impact of reionization on the visibility of the Lyα flux should be subtle.

UV-faint galaxies tend to be brigher in Lyα
The Lyα-LyC connection implies that UV-faint galaxies contribute more to the ionising photon budget than implied by the faint end slope of the UV-LF!
Lyα escapes more easily from UV-faint galaxies.

Escape of LyC photons requires low NHI-paths. Lyα escape is facilitated by these paths.
The Lyα-LyC connection implies that UV-faint galaxies contribute more to the ionising photon budget than implied by the faint end slope of the UV-LF.
Point 1-2.

The reduced Lyα flux from galaxies at z ~7 is because reionization is still well underway, and possible at its midpoint.
Exciting for future surveys! (Especially because we still are likely not optimally using data on Lyα emitting galaxies)

Lyα Galaxies as a Probe of the High-z Universe
Conclusions
• Lyα emitting galaxies at z>6 provide an excellent measure of the `global’ ionisation state of the Universe.
• The Lyα-LyC connection implies fesc(LyC) increases towards lower UV-luminosities:
UV-faint galaxies contribute more to cosmic reionization than implied by the faint end slope of the UV-LF.
• Next: going beyond a statistical use of Lyα emitting galaxies, and try and extract physical properties of the ISM of galaxies based on Lyα spectra.
