The Impact of Stellar Radiative Feedback on Formation of Young Massive Clusters via Fast H i Gas Collisions

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Young massive clusters (YMCs) are dense aggregates of young stars and are often speculated as potential precursors to globular clusters. However, the formation mechanism of massive and compact gas clumps that precede YMCs remains unknown.

Recombination Clumping Factor of Physically Defined Intergalactic Medium at the Epoch of Reionization

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The recombination clumping factor, C , is a key parameter in modeling cosmic reionization, but its value is sensitive to the definition of the intergalactic medium (IGM).

X-ray emission in IllustrisTNG circum-cluster environments

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. An excess of soft X–ray emission (∼0.2 − 1 keV) above the contribution from the hot intracluster medium (ICM) has been detected in a number of galaxy clusters, including the Coma cluster. The physical origin of this emitting medium above the hot

On the Physical Nature of Lyα Transmission Spikes in High-redshift Quasar Spectra

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate Lyman-alpha (Ly α ) transmission spikes at 5.2 < z < 6.8 using synthetic quasar spectra from the “Cosmic Reionization on Computers” simulations.

Feeding the Dead: Neutral Gas Inflow in a Long-quenched Ancient Massive Galaxy at z ∼ 2.7 Observed with JWST/NIRSpec

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report the spectroscopic detection of neutral gas inflow into a massive ( M _*  ≃ 4 × 10 ^10 M _⊙ ) quiescent galaxy observed at z _spec  = 2.6576 with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).

The Qz5 Survey. I. How the H i Mass Density of the Universe Evolves with Cosmic Time

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report that the neutral hydrogen (H i ) mass density of the Universe ( ρ _H _i ) increases with cosmic time since z  ∼ 5, peaks at z  ∼ 3, and then decreases toward z  ∼ 0. This is the first result of Qz5, our spectroscopic survey of 63 quasars at z  ≳

Galaxy Proximate Damped Lyα Systems and H I Reionization Topology in Technicolor Dawn

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Recent observations from the James Webb Space Telescope have revealed proximate damped Ly α absorbers (PDLAs) in the foreground of high-redshift galaxies ( z  > 5), which have been interpreted as neutral circumgalactic media (CGM).

Molecular Gas Structure and Star Formation Diversity in Stephan’s Quintet Revealed by ACA CO(1–0) Mapping

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present ^12 CO(1–0) mapping across the entire system of Stephan’s Quintet, a well-known compact galaxy group, observed by Atacama Compact Array (7 m array + Total Power) of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array.
