Robustness of direct measurements of the mean free path of ionizing photons in the epoch of reionization
Sindhu Satyavolu, Girish Kulkarni, Laura C. Keating +1
Measurements of the mean free path of Lyman-continuum photons in the intergalactic medium during the epoch of reionization can help constrain the nature of the sources as well as s…
Measurements of the Lyman- forest flux auto-correlation functions from the extended XQR-30 data set
Molly Wolfson, Joseph F. Hennawi, Sarah E. I. Bosman +14
Recently, the Lyman- (Ly) forest flux auto-correlation function has been shown to be sensitive to the mean free path of hydrogen-ionizing photons, , for simul…
Unveiling Dark Matter free-streaming at the smallest scales with high redshift Lyman-alpha forest
Vid Iršič, Matteo Viel, Martin G. Haehnelt +8
This study introduces novel constraints on the free-streaming of thermal relic warm dark matter (WDM) from Lyman- forest flux power spectra. Our analysis utilises a high-resolut…
Investigating the characteristic shape and scatter of intergalactic damping wings during reionization
Laura C. Keating, Ewald Puchwein, James S. Bolton +2
Ly damping wings in the spectra of bright objects at high redshift are a useful probe of the ionization state of the intergalactic medium during the reionization epoch. It has r…
JWST observations of galaxy damping wings during reionization interpreted with cosmological simulations
Laura C. Keating, James S. Bolton, Fergus Cullen +3
Spectra of the highest redshift galaxies taken with JWST are now allowing us to see into the heart of the reionization epoch. Many of these observed galaxies exhibit strong damping…
Probing Ultra-late Reionization: Direct Measurements of the Mean Free Path over
Yongda Zhu, George D. Becker, Holly M. Christenson +22
The mean free path of ionizing photons, , is a critical parameter for modeling the intergalactic medium (IGM) both during and after reionization. We present direct mea…
