Identifying signatures of inflow onto face-on galaxies using the Balmer decrement
Meghna Sitaram, Hui Li, Yong Zheng +4
Isolated star-forming galaxies require inflows of fresh gas from the surrounding medium to sustain episodes of star formation over time. However, there are very few direct detectio…
The Ly and Continuum Origins Survey. III. Investigating the Link between Galaxy Morphology, Merger Properties and LyC Escape
Alexandra Le Reste, Anne E. Jaskot, Jordanne Brazie +20
Characterizing the mechanisms and galaxy properties conducive to the emission and escape of ionizing (LyC) emission is necessary to accurately model the Epoch of Reionization, and…
The THESAN project: environmental drivers of Local Group reionization
Yu Zhao, Aaron Smith, Rahul Kannan +5
The timing of cosmic reionization across Local Group (LG) analogues provides insights into their early histories and surrounding large-scale structure. Using the radiation-hydrodyn…
The Lyman-alpha and Continuum Origins Survey. I. Survey description and Ly imaging
Alexandra Le Reste, Claudia Scarlata, Matthew Hayes +25
Understanding the mechanisms driving the escape of ionizing or Lyman continuum (LyC) emission from the interstellar medium of galaxies is necessary to constrain the evolution of re…
Evaluating Mass Outflow Rate Estimators in FIRE-2 Simulations: Towards a Self-Consistent Framework for Spectral Line Based Predictions
Cody A Carr, Aaron Smith, Viraj Pandya +4
$\require{mediawiki-texvc}$Galactic outflows shape galaxy evolution, but their mass, energy, and momentum transfer remain uncertain. High-resolution spectroscopy can help, but syst…
The galaxy-IGM connection in THESAN: the physics connecting the IGM Lyman- opacity and galaxy density in the reionization epoch
Enrico Garaldi, Verena Bellscheidt, A. Smith +1
The relation between the Lyman- effective optical depth of quasar sightlines () and the distribution of galaxies around them is an emerging probe of the connecti…
