Notes. Column 1 gives the galaxy name. Column 2 gives the redshifts of the galaxies. Columns 3 and 4 give the stellar attenuation (EB−V) and Si II covering fraction () determined from a stellar continuum fit similar to the methods detailed in Sect. 2.2. Column 5 gives the Lyman continuum escape fraction predicted using the Si II 1260 Å absorption line (
; Eq. (12)). Column 6 gives the Lyman continuum escape fraction predicted by extinction correcting the Lyα escape fraction (
; Eq. (14)). Column 7 gives the mean and standard deviation of the predicted Lyman continuum escape fractions. Column 8 gives the observed Lyman continuum escape fraction (
). The table is ordered in descending
. All of the galaxies, except Ion2, Haro 11, and J1154+2443 are drawn from the MEGaSaURA sample (Sect. 6.2; Rigby et al. 2018). Unmeasured quantities are denoted with dashes.
