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…
Lyman-alpha Radiation Pressure in Dense Star Clusters: Implications for Star Formation and Winds at Cosmic Dawn
Shyam H Menon, Aaron Smith
Observations with the JWST in lensed fields have revealed that galaxies at cosmic dawn may concentrate their star formation in highly dense, compact, star clusters. The high column…
Double-Peaked Ly Emission during Reionization Requires Nearby Voids and a Favorable Local Ionizing Background
Hyunbae Park, Aaron Smith, Intae Jung +11
Several Lyman-alpha (Ly) emitters deep into the reionization era exhibit double-peaked Ly emission profiles, raising the question of how the intergalactic medium can transmit…
