Data-constrained reionization and its effects on cosmological parameters
Stefania Pandolfi, Andrea Ferrara, T. Roy Choudhury +2
We perform an analysis of the recent WMAP7 data considering physically motivated and viable reionization scenarios with the aim of assessing their effects on cosmological parameter…
Lyman Alpha Emitters and Lyman Break Galaxies: dichotomous twins?
Pratika Dayal, Andrea Ferrara
(Abridged) We extend our previous studies aimed at modeling Lyman Alpha Emitters (LAEs) to the second population of high redshift sources, Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs), with the fin…
Probing cosmic star formation up to z = 9.4 with GRBs
Emille E. O. Ishida, Rafael S. de Souza, Andrea Ferrara
We propose a novel approach, based on Principal Components Analysis, to the use of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) as probes of cosmic star formation history (SFH) up to very high redshift…
Ancient giants: on the farthest galaxy at z=8.6
Pratika Dayal, Andrea Ferrara
The observational frontiers for the detection of high-redshift galaxies have recently been pushed to unimaginable distances with the record-holding Lyman Alpha Emitter (LAE) UDFy-3…
Enabling parallel computing in CRASH
Adrian M. Partl, Antonella Maselli, Benedetta Ciardi +2
We present the new parallel version (pCRASH2) of the cosmological radiative transfer code CRASH2 for distributed memory supercomputing facilities. The code is based on a static dom…
