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…

Measuring the photo-ionization rate, neutral fraction and mean free path of HI ionizing photons at from a large sample of XShooter and ESI spectra

Prakash Gaikwad, Martin G. Haehnelt, Frederick B. Davies +16

We measure the mean free path (), photo-ionization rate () and neutral fraction () of hydrogen in 12 redshif…

Possible evidence for a large-scale enhancement in the Lyman- forest power spectrum at redshift

Margherita Molaro, Vid Iršič, James S. Bolton +5

Inhomogeneous reionization enhances the 1D Lyman- forest power spectrum on large scales at redshifts . This is due to coherent fluctuations in the ionized hydrogen fract…

Probing quasar lifetimes with proximate -centimetre absorption in the diffuse intergalactic medium at redshifts

Tomáš Šoltinský, James S. Bolton, Margherita Molaro +5

Enhanced ionizing radiation in close proximity to redshift quasars creates short windows of intergalactic Ly transmission blueward of the quasar Ly emission line…

The Sherwood-Relics simulations: overview and impact of patchy reionization and pressure smoothing on the intergalactic medium

Ewald Puchwein, James S. Bolton, Laura C. Keating +10

We present the Sherwood-Relics simulations, a new suite of large cosmological hydrodynamical simulations aimed at modelling the intergalactic medium (IGM) during and after the cosm…

The effect of inhomogeneous reionisation on the Lyman- forest power spectrum at redshift : implications for thermal parameter recovery

Margherita Molaro, Vid Iršič, James S. Bolton +6

We use the Sherwood-Relics suite of hybrid hydrodynamical and radiative transfer simulations to model the effect of inhomogeneous reionisation on the 1D power spectrum of the \Lya…

ARTIST: Fast radiative transfer for large-scale simulations of the epoch of reionisation

Margherita Molaro, Romeel Davé, Sultan Hassan +2

We introduce the "Asymmetric Radiative Transfer In Shells Technique" (ARTIST), a new method for photon propagation on large scales that explicitly conserves photons, propagates pho…

Probing the clumping structure of Giant Molecular Clouds through the spectrum, polarisation and morphology of X-ray Reflection Nebulae

Margherita Molaro, Rishi Khatri, Rashid Sunyaev

We suggest a method for probing global properties of clump populations in Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) in the case where these act as X-ray reflection nebulae (XRNe), based on the…

A thin diffuse component of the Galactic Ridge X-ray emission and heating of the interstellar medium contributed by the radiation of Galactic X-ray binaries

Margherita Molaro, Rishi Khatri, Rashid Sunyaev

We predict a thin (scale height 80 pc) diffuse component of the Galactic Ridge X-ray emission (GRXE) arising from the scattering of the radiation of bright X-ray binaries (X…
