The Lumina Project: Intergalactic Clumping and Recombination Sinks
Ali Sadain, Aaron Smith, Oliver Zier +10
Recombinations during the Epoch of Reionization are intrinsically inhomogeneous, with different regions of the intergalactic medium contributing unevenly depending on their density…
The Lumina Project: The Demographics of Active Galactic Nuclei from Quasars to Little Red Dots at
Xuejian Shen, Oliver Zier, Aaron Smith +16
High-redshift active galactic nuclei (AGN) serve as powerful probes of early black-hole growth, galaxy formation, and the evolving intergalactic medium (IGM). In this work, we use…
The Lumina Project: CMB Optical Depth Fluctuations from Patchy Reionization
Aaron Smith, Oliver Zier, Rahul Kannan +8
Patchy reionization couples the ionized-bubble morphology to the underlying density field, making the CMB Thomson optical depth sensitive to both the global ionization history and…
Introducing the Lumina project: large-volume radiation-hydrodynamic simulations of the epochs of hydrogen and helium reionization
Oliver Zier, Aaron Smith, Xuejian Shen +8
Understanding how galaxies and active galactic nuclei (AGN) jointly drive the reionization of the intergalactic medium (IGM) across cosmic time remains a major challenge in cosmolo…
