Force convergence in Monte Carlo Lyman-alpha radiative transfer

Joshua Kasiri, Aaron Smith, Kevin Lorinc +2

Monte Carlo radiative transfer (MCRT) is widely used to model Lyman-alpha (Lya) resonant-line transport, but convergence is difficult to assess in optically thick media where photo…

Lyman-alpha Pressure Strongly Enhances Pre-Supernova Feedback at Cosmic Dawn: The First Multi-Dimensional Lyman-alpha Radiation Hydrodynamics Simulations

Olof Nebrin, Aaron Smith, Garrelt Mellema +2

The dynamical role of Lyman- (Ly) radiation pressure feedback has been debated for nearly a century, with recent analytical and 1D numerical studies highlighting its potentia…

Core-wing transitions and the breakdown of diffusion in Lyman- radiative transfer

Kevin Lorinc, Aaron Smith, Olof Nebrin +1

The Lyman alpha (LyA) line of neutral hydrogen plays a central role in observations of star-forming galaxies. However, resonant scattering makes it difficult to directly interpret…

Multi-Resonant-Line Radiative Transfer: Lyman-Alpha Fine Structure and Deuterium Coupling

Ethan Stace, Aaron Smith, Kevin Lorinc +1

Resonance lines encode rich information about astrophysical sources and their environments, yet fully analytic treatments of multi-line radiative transfer remain almost entirely un…

Lyman-alpha resonant-line radiative transfer in expanding media

Aaron Smith, Kevin Lorinc, Olof Nebrin +1

The Lyman-alpha (LyA) line of atomic hydrogen encodes crucial information about both the intrinsic sources and surrounding environments of star-forming regions throughout the Unive…

Lyman- feedback prevails at Cosmic Dawn: Implications for the first galaxies, stars, and star clusters

Olof Nebrin, Aaron Smith, Kevin Lorinc +4

Radiation pressure from Lyman- (Ly) scattering is a potentially dominant form of early stellar feedback, capable of injecting up to more momentum into th…
