(Nearly) Model-Independent Constraints on the Neutral Hydrogen Fraction in the Intergalactic Medium at Using Dark Pixel Fractions in Ly and Ly Forests
Xiangyu Jin, Jinyi Yang, Xiaohui Fan +10
Cosmic reionization was the last major phase transition of hydrogen from neutral to highly ionized in the intergalactic medium (IGM). Current observations show that the IGM is sign…
Target Selection and Validation of DESI Quasars
Edmond Chaussidon, Christophe Yèche, Nathalie Palanque-Delabrouille +54
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey will measure large-scale structures using quasars as direct tracers of dark matter in the redshift range 0.9<z<2.1 and using…
Long Dark Gaps in the Ly Forest at : Evidence of Ultra Late Reionization from XQR-30 Spectra
Yongda Zhu, George D. Becker, Sarah E. I. Bosman +22
We present a new investigation of the intergalactic medium (IGM) near reionization using dark gaps in the Lyman- (Ly) forest. With its lower optical depth, Ly offers a pot…
