Updated dark pixel fraction constraints on reionization's end from the Lyman-series forests of XQR-30
Frederick B. Davies, Sarah E. I. Bosman, Valentina D'Odorico +16
The fraction of "dark pixels" in the Ly and other Lyman-series forests at provides a powerful constraint on the end of the reionization process. Any spectral region…
How probable is the Lyman- damping wing in the spectrum of the redshift z = 5.9896 quasar ULAS J0148+0600?
Fiona Sawyer, James S. Bolton, George D. Becker +5
The shape of the Ly- transmission in the near zone of the redshift quasar ULAS J01480600 (hereafter J0148) is consistent with a damping wing arising from an extend…
Percent-level timing of reionization: self-consistent, implicit-likelihood inference from XQR-30+ Ly forest data
Yuxiang Qin, Andrei Mesinger, David Prelogović +13
The Lyman alpha (Lya) forest in the spectra of z>5 quasars provides a powerful probe of the late stages of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). With the recent advent of exquisite data…
A SPectroscopic survey of biased halos In the Reionization Era (ASPIRE): JWST Supports Earlier Reionization around [OIII] Emitters
Xiangyu Jin, Jinyi Yang, Xiaohui Fan +22
Understanding when and how reionization happened is crucial for studying the early structure formation and the properties of first galaxies in the Universe. At , the observe…
Damping Wing-Like Features in the Stacked Ly Forest: Potential Neutral Hydrogen Islands at
Yongda Zhu, George D. Becker, Sarah E. I. Bosman +28
Recent quasar absorption line observations suggest that reionization may end as late as . As a means to search for large neutral hydrogen islands at , we revisi…
Damping wing absorption associated with a giant Ly trough at : direct evidence for late-ending reionization
George D. Becker, James S. Bolton, Yongda Zhu +1
Multiple observations now suggest that the hydrogen reionization may have ended well below redshift six. While there has previously been no conclusive proof of extended neutral isl…
IGM damping wing constraints on the tail end of reionisation from the enlarged XQR-30 sample
Bradley Greig, Andrei Mesinger, Eduardo Bañados +16
The attenuation of Ly photons by neutral hydrogen in the intergalactic medium (IGM) at continues to be a powerful probe for studying the epoch of reionisation. Given…
Constraints on the Evolution of the Ionizing Background and Ionizing Photon Mean Free Path at the End of Reionization
Frederick B. Davies, Sarah E. I. Bosman, Prakash Gaikwad +16
The variations in Ly forest opacity observed at between lines of sight to different background quasars are too strong to be caused by fluctuations in the density field a…
The effect of reionization on direct measurements of the mean free path
Joshua T. Roth, Anson D'Aloisio, Christopher Cain +3
Recent measurements of the ionizing photon mean free path (MFP) based on composite quasar spectra may point to reionization ending at . These measurements are challenging beca…
Thermal constraints on the reionisation of hydrogen by population-II stellar sources
Sudhir Raskutti, James S. Bolton, J. Stuart B. Wyithe +1
Measurements of the intergalactic medium (IGM) temperature provide a potentially powerful constraint on the reionisation history due to the thermal imprint left by the photo-ionisa…
