The Kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect from Patchy Reionization: the View from the Simulations
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 inhomogeneus reionization of the universe based on detailed large-scale radiative transfe…
Self-regulated reionization
Ilian T. Iliev, Garrelt Mellema, Paul R. Shapiro +1
Recently, we have presented the first large-scale radiative transfer simulations of reionization. Here we present new simulations which extend the source halo mass range downward t…
Recognizing the First Radiation Sources Through Their 21-cm Signature
Leonid Chuzhoy, Marcelo A. Alvarez, Paul R. Shapiro
At the beginning of the reionization epoch, radiation sources produce fluctuations in the redshifted 21-cm background. We show that different types of sources (such as miniquasars,…
Heating and cooling of the intergalactic medium by resonance photons
Leonid Chuzhoy, Paul R. Shapiro
During the epoch of reionization a large number of photons were produced with frequencies below the hydrogen Lyman limit. After redshifting into the closest resonance, these photon…
Cosmological Radiative Transfer Codes Comparison Project I: The Static Density Field Tests
Ilian T. Iliev, Benedetta Ciardi, Marcelo A. Alvarez +13
Radiative transfer simulations are now at the forefront of numerical astrophysics. They are becoming crucial for an increasing number of astrophysical and cosmological problems; at…
