The Impact of Cosmic Variance on Inferences of Global Neutral Fraction Derived from Ly Luminosity Functions During Reionization

Sean Bruton, Claudia Scarlata, Francesco Haardt +4

We investigate the impact of field-to-field variation, deriving from cosmic variance, in measured Lyman- emitter (LAE) luminosity functions (LFs) and this variation's impact on…

21cmfish: Fisher-matrix framework for fast parameter forecasts from the cosmic 21-cm signal

Charlotte A. Mason, Julian B. Muñoz, Bradley Greig +2

The 21-cm signal from neutral hydrogen in the early universe will provide unprecedented information about the first stars and galaxies. Extracting this information, however, requir…

The Impact of the First Galaxies on Cosmic Dawn and Reionization

Julian B. Muñoz, Yuxiang Qin, Andrei Mesinger +3

The formation of the first galaxies during cosmic dawn and reionization (at redshifts ), triggered the last major phase transition of our universe, as hydrogen evolved from…

Spectroscopically Confirmed Lyman-Alpha Emitters from Redshift 5 to 7 Behind Ten Galaxy Cluster Lenses

Spencer Fuller, Brian Lemaux, Maruša Bradač +10

We present 36 spectroscopically confirmed intrinsically UV-faint Ly emitting galaxies from follow-up observations with Keck/DEIMOS of gravitationally lensed high-redshift candid…

The Impact of Scatter in the Galaxy UV Luminosity to Halo Mass Relation on Ly Visibility During the Epoch of Reionization

Lily R. Whitler, Charlotte A. Mason, Keven Ren +5

The reionization of hydrogen is closely linked to the first structures in the universe, so understanding the timeline of reionization promises to shed light on the nature of these…

Model-independent constraints on the hydrogen-ionizing emissivity at z>6

Charlotte A. Mason, Rohan P. Naidu, Sandro Tacchella +1

Modelling reionization often requires significant assumptions about the properties of ionizing sources. Here, we infer the total output of hydrogen-ionizing photons (the ionizing e…
