From the Intergalactic to the Interstellar Scales -- EQUALS: a High-resolution Legacy Survey of Gas in the Distant Universe Using ESPRESSO
Trystyn Berg, Valentina D'Odorico, Elisa Boera +14
Understanding how the Universe evolved from diffuse primordial gas into the rich cosmic web we observe today is one of the great challenges of modern astrophysics. Quasar absorptio…
Detecting the IGM metal enrichment with the 2-point correlation function of the flux. Application to the UVES deep spectrum
Simona Di Stefano, Valentina D'Odorico, Guido Cupani +5
The distribution and the abundance of metals in the intergalactic medium (IGM) have strong implications on galaxy formation and evolution models. The ionic transitions of heavy ele…
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…
Multi-phase investigation of outflows in the circumgalactic and interstellar media of luminous quasars at z~5
Matilde Brazzini, Valentina D'Odorico, Manuela Bischetti +4
Aims. Outflows from active galactic nuclei are invoked as the principal feedback process regulating the co-evolution of supermassive black holes and their host galaxies. Because of…
Isotopic abundance of carbon in the DLA towards QSO B1331+170
Dinko Milaković, John K. Webb, Paolo Molaro +19
Chemical evolution models predict a gradual build-up of C in the universe, based on empirical nuclear reaction rates and assumptions on the properties of stellar populations…
Evidence of Pop~III stars' chemical signature in neutral gas at z~6. A study based on the E-XQR-30 spectroscopic sample
Alessio Sodini, Valentina D'Odorico, Stefania Salvadori +16
This study explores the metal enrichment signatures attributed to the first generation of stars (PopIII) in the Universe, focusing on the E-XQR-30 sample. We aim to identify traces…
