Astraeus I:The interplay between galaxy formation and reionization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
We introduce a new self-consistent model of galaxy evolution and reionization, ASTRAEUS (seminumerical rAdiative tranSfer coupling of galaxy formaTion and Reionization in N-body dArk mattEr simUlationS), which couples a state-of-the-art N-body simulation

Constraints on the Epoch of Reionization with Roman Space Telescope and the Void Probability Function of Lyα Emitters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We use large simulations of Ly α emitters with different fractions of ionized intergalactic medium to quantify the clustering of Ly α emitters as measured by the void probability function (VPF), and how it evolves under different ionization scenarios. We

Cosmological reionization [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2000
In popular cosmological scenarios, some time beyond a redshift of 10, stars within protogalaxies created the first heavy elements; these systems, together perhaps with an early population of quasars, generated the ultraviolet radiation and mechanical energy that reheated and reionized the cosmos.

Cosmic Reionization on Computers: Baryonic Effects on Halo Concentrations during the Epoch of Reionization

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Baryons both increase halo concentration through adiabatic contraction and expel mass through feedback processes. However, it is not well understood how the radiation fields prevalent during the epoch of reionization affect the evolution of concentration

A local clue to the reionization of the universe [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2014
Identifying the population of galaxies that was responsible for the reionization of the universe is a long-standing quest in astronomy. We present a possible local analog that has an escape fraction of ionizing flux of 21%. Our detection confirms the existence of gaps in the neutral gas enveloping the starburst region.

Simulating the Cosmic Dawn With Enzo

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2018
We review two decades of progress using the Enzo hydrodynamic cosmology code to simulate the Cosmic Dawn, a period of roughly 1 billion years beginning with the formation of the first stars in the universe, and ending with cosmic reionization.

Probing Reionization with Currently Available Observables

open access: yes, 2022
The reionization of hydrogen -- the era when the intergalactic gas turned from cold and neutral to hot and highly ionized when the universe was hundreds of millions of years old -- remains one of the biggest mysteries in astronomy research.

Early reionization in cosmology [PDF]

open access: yesInfrared Physics & Technology, 1994
The cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies have turned out to represent one of the most stringent 'bottle necks' for scenarios of large scale structure formation. As a possibility to relax this constraint, it has been proposed that early reionization can damp CMB fluctuations on small scales due to photon diffusion in the ionized plasma.

Simulating Cosmic Reionization at Large Scales I: the Geometry of Reionization [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2005
We present the first large-scale radiative transfer simulations of cosmic reionization, in a simulation volume of (100/h Mpc)^3, while at the same time capturing the dwarf galaxies which are primarily responsible for reionization. We achieve this by combining the results from extremely large, cosmological, N-body simulations with a new, fast and ...
