We present results from high-resolution, zoom-in cosmological simulations to study the effect of feedback from galactic outflows on the physical and Lyα properties of high-redshift galaxies in highly overdense and normal environments at z >∼6. The Lyα properties have been obtained by post-processing the simulations with a Monte-Carlo radiative transfer (RT) code. Our results demonstrate that galactic outflows play an important role in regulating the growth of massive galaxies in overdense regions as well as the temperature and metallicity of the intergalactic medium. In particular, we find that galactic outflows are necessary to reproduce the observed Lyα luminosity functions as well as the apparent Lyα luminosity, line width and equivalent width distributions of luminous Lyα emitters at z ∼ 6.
