Probing Direct Contributions of Galaxies and AGN to Cosmic Reionization in a Quasar Field J0226+0302 with JWST NIRCam and NIRSpec

Xiangyu Jin, Jinyi Yang, Feige Wang +19

We present JWST Cycle 2 NIRCam and NIRSpec observations in a quasar field J0226+0302 at z=6.5412 to probe the direct connections between the intergalactic medium (IGM), galaxies, a…

Updated dark pixel fraction constraints on reionization's end from the Lyman-series forests of XQR-30

Frederick B. Davies, Sarah E. I. Bosman, Valentina D'Odorico +16

The fraction of "dark pixels" in the Ly and other Lyman-series forests at provides a powerful constraint on the end of the reionization process. Any spectral region…

The clustering of C IV and Si IV at the end of reionisation: A perspective from the E-XQR-30 survey

Louise Welsh, Valentina D'Odorico, Fabio Fontanot +14

We aim to study the clustering of metal absorption lines and the structures that they arise in as a function of cosmic time. We focus on C IV and Si IV absorption features that are…

Quasar Radiative Feedback May Suppress Galaxy Growth on Intergalactic Scales at

Yongda Zhu, Eiichi Egami, Xiaohui Fan +27

We present observational evidence that intense ionizing radiation from a luminous quasar suppresses nebular emission in nearby galaxies on intergalactic scales at . Using JW…

Damping Wing-Like Features in the Stacked Ly Forest: Potential Neutral Hydrogen Islands at

Yongda Zhu, George D. Becker, Sarah E. I. Bosman +28

Recent quasar absorption line observations suggest that reionization may end as late as . As a means to search for large neutral hydrogen islands at , we revisi…

Multi-phase black-hole feedback and a bright [CII] halo in a Lo-BAL quasar at

Manuela Bischetti, Hyunseop Choi, Fabrizio Fiore +18

Although the mass growth of supermassive black holes during the Epoch of Reionisation is expected to play a role in shaping the concurrent growth of their host-galaxies, observatio…

IGM damping wing constraints on the tail end of reionisation from the enlarged XQR-30 sample

Bradley Greig, Andrei Mesinger, Eduardo Bañados +16

The attenuation of Ly photons by neutral hydrogen in the intergalactic medium (IGM) at continues to be a powerful probe for studying the epoch of reionisation. Given…

Chronicling the reionization history at with emergent quasar damping wings

Dominika Ďurovčíková, Anna-Christina Eilers, Huanqing Chen +6

The spectra of high-redshift () quasars contain valuable information on the progression of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). At redshifts , the observed Lyman-serie…

Measurements of the Lyman- forest flux auto-correlation functions from the extended XQR-30 data set

Molly Wolfson, Joseph F. Hennawi, Sarah E. I. Bosman +14

Recently, the Lyman- (Ly) forest flux auto-correlation function has been shown to be sensitive to the mean free path of hydrogen-ionizing photons, , for simul…
