An extended Lyα halo is detected around the z=6.64 BAL quasar J0910-0414, extending to 11 pkpc with rotation-like kinematics, lower velocity dispersion than the host core, and contributing 55% of the total Lyα flux due to central absorption.

Detection of an Extended Ly$\alpha$ Halo around a $\textit{z}=6.64$ Broad Absorption Line Quasar with the Keck Cosmic Web Imager
