Reionization: Characteristic Scales, Topology and Observability
Ilian T. Iliev, Paul R. Shapiro, Garrelt Mellema +3
Recently the numerical simulations of the process of reionization of the universe at z>6 have made a qualitative leap forward, reaching sufficient sizes and dynamic range to determ…
Reconstructing the Thomson Optical Depth due to Patchy Reionization with 21-cm Fluctuation Maps
Gilbert Holder, Ilian T. Iliev, Garrelt Mellema
Large fluctuations in the electron column density can occur during the reionization process. We investigate the possibility of deriving the electron density fluctuations through de…
The Kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect from Radiative Transfer Simulations of Patchy Reionization
Ilian T. Iliev, Ue-Li Pen, J. Richard Bond +2
We present the first calculation of the kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ) effect due to the inhomogeneous reionization of the universe based on detailed large-scale radiative transf…
The formation of bipolar planetary nebulae
Garrelt Mellema
Using a radiation-hydrodynamics code I follow the formation of planetary nebulae around stars of different mass. Because a more massive central star evolves much faster than a lowe…
