The Lyalpha Forest Around High Redshift Galaxies
M. Bruscoli, A. Ferrara, S. Marri +4
Motivated by the relative lack of neutral hydrogen around Lyman Break Galaxies deduced from recent observations, we investigate the properties of the Lyalpha forest around high red…
The Imprint of the Cosmic Dark Ages on the Near Infrared Background
R. Salvaterra, A. Ferrara
The redshifted light of the first (Pop III) stars might substantially contribute to the near infrared background (NIRB). By fitting recent data with models including up-to-date Pop…
What regulates the velocity distribution of interstellar clouds?
Massimo Ricotti, Andrea Ferrara
Kinetic energy stored in ISM bulk/turbulent motions is a crucial ingredient to properly describe most properties of observed galaxies. By using Monte Carlo simulations, we investig…
On the Direct Detectability of the Cosmic Dark Ages: 21-cm Emission from Minihalos
Ilian T. Iliev, Paul R. Shapiro, Andrea Ferrara +1
In the standard Cold Dark Matter (CDM) theory of structure formation, virialized minihalos (with T_vir}<10^4 K) form in abundance at high redshift (z>6), during the cosmic ``dark a…
How is the Reionization Epoch Defined?
Marialuce Bruscoli, Andrea Ferrara, Evan Scannapieco
We study the effect of a prolonged epoch of reionization on the angular power spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background. Typically reionization studies assume a sudden phase tran…
