Strong [OIII]H emitters dominated the ionizing budget at

Isak Wold, Sangeeta Malhotra, James Rhoads

We quantify the ionizing photon production at using the deepest spectroscopically confirmed sample of strong [OIII]H emitters (rest-frame EW A) in the Abell 2…

Going Wide and Deep with Roman: The z~6-9 UV luminosity function in a Roman Deep Field

Micaela B. Bagley, Steven L. Finkelstein, James Rhoads +4

We present a trade study of possible ultra-deep surveys with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, optimizing the depth-area-filter parameter space for high-redshift galaxy scienc…

Galaxy Protoclusters as Drivers of Cosmic Reionization: I. Bubble Overlap at Redshift z ~ 7 in LAGER-z7OD1

Crystal L. Martin, Weida Hu, Isak G. B. Wold +17

Since the launch of JWST, the sample size of reionization-era Lyman-alpha-emitters (LAEs) has been steadily growing; yet inferences about the neutral hydrogen fraction in the inter…

Faint active galactic nuclei supplied 31-75% of hydrogen-ionizing photons at z>5

Mainak Singha, Sangeeta Malhotra, James Ely Rhoads

The origin of the ionizing photons that completed hydrogen reionization remains debated. Using recent JWST and ground-based surveys at 4.5 <= z <= 6.5, we construct a unified rest-…

The atomic gas properties of Green Pea galaxies: Connections to Lyman continuum leakage

Archishman Khasnovis, Nissim Kanekar, Sangeeta Malhotra +1

We have used the Green Bank Telescope to search for H{\sc{i}} 21\,cm emission from 30 Green Pea galaxies (GPs) at , obtaining 7 detections of H{\sc{i}} 21\,cm…

ESpRESSO -- Forward modeling Roman Space Telescope spectroscopy

Austen Gabrielpillai, Isak G. B. Wold, Sangeeta Malhotra +4

We describe the software package - [E]xtragalactic [Sp]ectroscopic [R]oman [E]mulator and [S]imulator of [S]ynthetic [O]bjects, created to emulate the slitless…
