Description
ALPINE is an ALMA large program designed to study gas and dust properties of a representative sample of more than one hundred main sequence star-forming galaxies with spectroscopic redshifts between 4 < z < 6, with SFR > ~10 M_Sun/yr and stellar mass ~9 < log(Mstar) < ~11.
I will present some results of the survey, focusing on:
- properties of the observed interstellar-medium (including morphology and kinematics) and the connection of [CII] with other physical quantities, e.g., the well known [CII]-SFR relation;
- major results obtained from the stacking analysis of [CII] spectra / data-cubes, providing new key insights on (i) star formation-driven outflows and (ii) gas recycling in the circumgalactic medium, precious for our understanding of the baryon cycling physics that drive the evolution of high-z galaxies.
