The THESAN project: tracking the expansion and merger histories of ionized bubbles during the Epoch of Reionization

Nathan Jamieson, Aaron Smith, Meredith Neyer +7

The growth of ionized hydrogen bubbles in the intergalactic medium around early luminous objects is a fundamental process during the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). In this study, we…

The galaxy-IGM connection in THESAN: the physics connecting the IGM Lyman- opacity and galaxy density in the reionization epoch

Enrico Garaldi, Verena Bellscheidt, A. Smith +1

The relation between the Lyman- effective optical depth of quasar sightlines () and the distribution of galaxies around them is an emerging probe of the connecti…

The galaxy-IGM connection in THESAN: observability and information content of the galaxy-Lyman- cross-correlation at z6

Enrico Garaldi, Verena Bellscheidt, Aaron Smith +1

The galaxy--Lyman- cross-correlation (GaLaCC) is a promising tool to study the interplay of galaxies and inter-galactic medium (IGM) in the first billion years of the Universe.…

Matter power spectrum induced by primordial magnetic fields: from the linear to the non-linear regime

Pranjal Ralegankar, Enrico Garaldi, Matteo Viel

Linear theory predicts that primordial magnetic fields (PMFs) enhance the matter power spectrum on small scales. However, the linear approximation breaks down on sufficiently small…

Helium Reionization from Empirical Quasar Luminosity Functions before and after JWST

Arghyadeep Basu, Enrico Garaldi, Benedetta Ciardi

Recently, models of the quasar luminosity function (QLF) rooted on large observational compilations have been produced that, unlike their predecessors, feature a smooth evolution w…

The THESAN project: galaxy sizes during the epoch of reionization

Xuejian Shen, Mark Vogelsberger, Josh Borrow +12

We investigate galaxy sizes at redshift with the cosmological radiation-magneto-hydrodynamic simulation suite THESAN(-HR). These simulations simultaneously capture the…
