Bridging the Gap between Cosmic Dawn and Reionization favors Faint Galaxies-dominated Models
Ankita Bera, Sultan Hassan, Aaron Smith +4
It has been claimed that traditional models struggle to explain the tentative detection of the 21\,cm absorption trough centered at measured by the EDGES collaboration. O…
An Effective Bias Expansion for 21 cm Cosmology in Redshift Space
Wenzer Qin, Katelin Schutz, Aaron Smith +4
A near-future detection of the 21cm signal from the epoch of reionization will provide unique opportunities to probe the underlying cosmology, provided that such cosmological infor…
The THESAN project: predictions for multi-tracer line intensity mapping in the epoch of reionization
Rahul Kannan, Aaron Smith, Enrico Garaldi +5
Line intensity mapping (LIM) is rapidly emerging as a powerful technique to study galaxy formation and cosmology in the high-redshift Universe. We present LIM estimates of select s…
The THESAN project: properties of the intergalactic medium and its connection to Reionization-era galaxies
Enrico Garaldi, Rahul Kannan, Aaron Smith +4
The high-redshift intergalactic medium (IGM) and the primeval galaxy population are rapidly becoming the new frontier of extra-galactic astronomy. We investigate the IGM properties…
Discrete diffusion Lyman-alpha radiative transfer
Aaron Smith, Benny T. -H. Tsang, Volker Bromm +1
Due to its accuracy and generality, Monte Carlo radiative transfer (MCRT) has emerged as the prevalent method for Ly radiative transfer in arbitrary geometries. The standard MCR…
The Lyman-alpha signature of the first galaxies
Aaron Smith, Chalence Safranek-Shrader, Volker Bromm +1
We present the Cosmic Lyman- Transfer code (COLT), a massively parallel Monte-Carlo radiative transfer code, to simulate Lyman- (Ly) resonant scattering through neutral hy…
