Reionization driven by the few: the ionizing budget of galaxies at z=5-10 from JWST/NIRSpec
Emma Giovinazzo, Pascal A. Oesch, Anne Verhamme +5
The sources responsible for the Epoch of Reionization (EoR), the last major phase transition of the Universe, remain highly elusive. While JWST has begun to illuminate the properti…
From THESAN-ZOOM to JWST: Predicting ionizing photon escape and the rise of UV-bright reionization sources
Zebedee Summerfield, William McClymont, Sandro Tacchella +14
Understanding the sources and evolution of cosmic reionization remains a central challenge in astrophysics, with the escape of ionizing Lyman-continuum (LyC) photons from early gal…
Star-formation variability on the star-forming main sequence during the Epoch of Reionization
H. T. J. Bevins, S. Tacchella, C. Simmonds
Star formation in galaxies is intrinsically stochastic, driven by physical processes operating across a wide range of scales. The scatter in the star-forming main sequence relation…
Relatively Fast and Reasonably Furious: Evidence for Increased Burstiness in Smaller Halos at Cosmic Dawn
Julian B. Muñoz, John Chisholm, Guochao Sun +7
We introduce an effective framework to model star-formation burstiness and use it to jointly fit galaxy UV luminosity functions (UVLFs), clustering, and H/UV ratios, providing…
