Reionization morphology and intrinsic velocity offsets allow transmission of Lyman-α emission from JADES-GS-z13-1-LA

Yuxiang Qin, J. Stuart B. Wyithe

We investigate the detectability of Lyman- (Ly) emission from galaxies at the onset of cosmic reionization, aiming to understand the conditions necessary for detecting high-r…

The 21-cm signal from the Cosmic Dawn: metallicity dependence of high mass X-ray binaries

Harman Deep Kaur, Yuxiang Qin, Andrei Mesinger +3

X-rays from High-Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) are likely the main source of heating of the intergalactic medium (IGM) during Cosmic Dawn (CD), before the completion of reionization.…

Reionization and galaxy inference from the high-redshift Lyα forest

Yuxiang Qin, Andrei Mesinger, Sarah E. I. Bosman +1

The transmission of Lyman-α (Lyα) in the spectra of distant quasars depends on the density, temperature, and ionization state of the intergalactic medium (IGM). Therefore, high-red…

21cmFAST v3: A Python-integrated C code forgenerating 3D realizations of the cosmic 21cm signal

Steven G. Murray, Bradley Greig, Andrei Mesinger +4

This brief code paper presents a new Python-wrapped version of the popular 21cm cosmology simulator, 21cmFAST. The new version, v3+, maintains the same core functionality of previo…

A tale of two sites -- II: Inferring the properties of minihalo-hosted galaxies with upcoming 21-cm interferometers

Yuxiang Qin, Andrei Mesinger, Bradley Greig +1

The first generation of galaxies is expected to form in minihalos, accreting gas through cooling, and possessing unique properties. Although unlikely to be directly det…

Reionization inference from the CMB optical depth and E-mode polarization power spectra

Yuxiang Qin, Vivian Poulin, Andrei Mesinger +3

The Epoch of Reionization (EoR) depends on the complex astrophysics governing the birth and evolution of the first galaxies and structures in the intergalactic medium. EoR models r…
