Inferring the Thermal History of the Intergalactic Medium from the Properties of the Hydrogen and Helium Lyman-alpha Forest

Bruno Villasenor, Brant Robertson, Piero Madau +1

The filamentary network of intergalactic medium (IGM) gas that gives origin to the Lyman-alpha forest in the spectra of distant quasars encodes information on the physics of struct…

Galaxy Formation and Reionization: Key Unknowns and Expected Breakthroughs by the James Webb Space Telescope

Brant E. Robertson

The scheduled launch of James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) in late 2021 marks a new start for studies of galaxy formation at high redshift z>~6 during the era of Cosmic Reionization…

Discovering Supernovae at Epoch of Reionization with Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope

Takashi J. Moriya, Robert M. Quimby, Brant E. Robertson

Massive stars play critical roles for the reionization of the Universe. Individual massive stars at the reionization epoch (z > 6) are too faint to observe and quantify their contr…

Probing Cosmic Dawn : Ages and Star Formation Histories of Candidate 9 Galaxies

N. Laporte, R. A. Meyer, R. S. Ellis +3

We discuss the spectral energy distributions and physical properties of six galaxies whose photometric redshifts suggest they lie beyond a redshift 9. Each was selected on…
