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…
No Redshift Evolution in the Fe II/Mg II Flux Ratios of Quasars across Cosmic Time
Danyang Jiang, Masafusa Onoue, Linhua Jiang +13
The Fe II/Mg II emission line flux ratio in quasar spectra serves as a proxy for the relative Fe to alpha-element abundances in the broad line regions of quasars. Due to the expect…
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…
Evidence of Pop~III stars' chemical signature in neutral gas at z~6. A study based on the E-XQR-30 spectroscopic sample
Alessio Sodini, Valentina D'Odorico, Stefania Salvadori +16
This study explores the metal enrichment signatures attributed to the first generation of stars (PopIII) in the Universe, focusing on the E-XQR-30 sample. We aim to identify traces…
Chemical Diagnostics to Unveil Environments Enriched by First Stars
Irene Vanni, Stefania Salvadori, Valentina D'Odorico +2
Unveiling the chemical fingerprints of the first (Pop III) stars is crucial for indirectly studying their properties and probing their massive nature. In particular, very massive P…
