Fluctuations in the High-Redshift Lyman-Werner Background: Close Halo Pairs as the Origin of Supermassive Black Holes
Mark Dijkstra, Zoltan Haiman, Andrei Mesinger +1
The earliest generation of stars and black holes must have established an early 'Lyman-Werner' background (LWB) at high redshift, prior to the epoch of reionization. Because of the…

The ionizing background at the end of overlap
Steven Furlanetto, Andrei Mesinger
One of the most sought-after signatures of reionization is a rapid increase in the ionizing background (usually measured through the Lyman-alpha optical depth toward distant quasar…

UV Radiative Feedback During the Advanced Stages of Reionization
Andrei Mesinger, Mark Dijkstra
The ionizing ultraviolet background (UVB) during reionization can suppress the gas content of low-mass galaxies, even those capable of efficient atomic cooling, and thus lead to an…
