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…
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…
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…
XQR-30: Black Hole Masses and Accretion Rates of 42 z>6 Quasars
C. Mazzucchelli, M. Bischetti, V. D'Odorico +19
We present bolometric luminosities, black hole masses and Eddington ratios for 42 luminous quasars at z>6 using high signal-to-noise ratio VLT/X-Shooter spectra, acquired in the en…
XQR-30: the ultimate XSHOOTER quasar sample at the reionization epoch
Valentina D'Odorico, E. Banados, G. D. Becker +46
The final phase of the reionization process can be probed by rest-frame UV absorption spectra of quasars at z>6, shedding light on the properties of the diffuse intergalactic mediu…
New quasar proximity zone size measurements at using the enlarged XQR-30 sample
Sindhu Satyavolu, Anna-Christina Eilers, Girish Kulkarni +15
Proximity zones of high-redshift quasars are unique probes of their central supermassive black holes as well as the intergalactic medium in the last stages of reionization. We pres…
