The infrared-luminous progenitors of high-z quasars
Michele Ginolfi, Raffaella Schneider, Rosa Valiante +4
Here we explore the infrared (IR) properties of the progenitors of high-z quasar host galaxies. Adopting the cosmological, data constrained semi-analytic model GAMETE/QSOdust, we s…

The interstellar medium of dwarf galaxies: new insights from Machine Learning analysis of emission line spectra
Graziano Ucci, Andrea Ferrara, Simona Gallerani +6
Dwarf galaxies are ideal laboratories to study the physics of the interstellar medium (ISM). Emission lines have been widely used to this aim. Retrieving the full information encod…
Interstellar dimethyl ether gas-phase formation: a quantum chemistry and kinetics study
Dimitrios Skouteris, Nadia Balucani, Cecilia Ceccarelli +4
Dimethyl ether is one of the most abundant interstellar complex organic molecules. Yet its formation route remains elusive. In this work, we have performed electronic structure and…
UV background fluctuations traced by metal ions at

Here we investigate how LyC-opaque systems present in the intergalactic medium at can distort the spectral shape of a uniform UV background (UVB) through radiative tran…
Science with an ngVLA: [CII] 158m Emission from Galaxies
C. L. Carilli, E. J. Murphy, A. Ferrara +1
We consider the capabilities of ALMA and the ngVLA to detect and image the[CII] 158\,m line from galaxies into the cosmic `dark ages' ( to 20). The [CII] line may pro…
Titans of the Early Universe: The Prato Statement on the Origin of the First Supermassive Black Holes
Tyrone E. Woods, Bhaskar Agarwal, Volker Bromm +30
In recent years, the discovery of massive quasars at z~7 has provided a striking challenge to our understanding of the origin and growth of supermassive black holes in the early Un…
Barred galaxies in cosmological zoom-in simulations: the importance of feedback
Tommaso Zana, Pedro R. Capelo, Massimo Dotti +5
Bars are a key factor in the long-term evolution of spiral galaxies, in their unique role in redistributing angular momentum and transporting gas and stars on large scales. The Eri…
Gaia DR2 unravels incompleteness of nearby cluster population: New open clusters in the direction of Perseus
T. Cantat-Gaudin, A. Krone-Martins, N. Sedaghat +13
Open clusters (OCs) are popular tracers of the structure and evolutionary history of the Galactic disk. The OC population is often considered to be complete within 1.8 kpc of the S…
Probing the High-Redshift Universe with SPICA: Toward the Epoch of Reionization and Beyond
E. Egami, S. Gallerani, R. Schneider +36
With the recent discovery of a dozen dusty star-forming galaxies and around 30 quasars at z>5 that are hyper-luminous in the infrared ( L, where $μ…
Production of atomic hydrogen by cosmic rays in dark clouds
Marco Padovani, Daniele Galli, Alexei V. Ivlev +2
The presence of small amounts of atomic hydrogen, detected as absorption dips in the 21 cm line spectrum, is a well-known characteristic of dark clouds. The abundance of hydrogen a…
Radiative transfer of ionizing radiation through gas and dust: stellar source case
Martin Glatzle, Benedetta Ciardi, Luca Graziani
We present a new dust extension to the Monte Carlo radiative transfer code crash, which enables it to simulate the propagation of ionizing radiation through mixtures of gas and dus…
Inferring the astrophysics of reionization and cosmic dawn from galaxy luminosity functions and the 21-cm signal
Jaehong Park, Andrei Mesinger, Bradley Greig +1
The properties of the first galaxies, expected to drive the Cosmic Dawn (CD) and the Epoch of Reionization (EoR), are encoded in the 3D structure of the cosmic 21-cm signal. Parame…
Hunting for Metals Using XQ-100 Legacy Survey Composite Spectra
S. Perrotta, V. D'Odorico, F. Hamann +10
We investigate the NV absorption signal along the line of sight of background quasars, in order to test the robustness of the use of this ion as criterion to select intrinsic (i.e.…
Dark-ages Reionization and Galaxy Formation Simulation - XV. Stellar evolution and feedback in dwarf galaxies at high redshift
Yuxiang Qin, Alan R. Duffy, Simon J. Mutch +3
We directly compare predictions of dwarf galaxy properties in a semi-analytic model (SAM) with those extracted from a high-resolution hydrodynamic simulation. We focus on galaxies…
Witnessing galaxy assembly at the edge of the reionization epoch
V. D'Odorico, C. Feruglio, A. Ferrara +8
