Global radiation signature from early structure formation

Boyuan Liu, Jason Jaacks, Steven L. Finkelstein +1

We use cosmological hydrodynamic zoom-in simulations to study early structure formation in two dark matter (DM) cosmologies, the standard CDM model, and a thermal warm DM (WDM) mod…

Legacy of star formation in the pre-reionization universe

Jason Jaacks, Steven L. Finkelstein, Volker Bromm

We utilize GIZMO, coupled with newly developed sub-grid models for Population~III (Pop~III) and Population~II (Pop~II), to study the legacy of star formation in the pre-reionizatio…

Dust in the first galaxies

Jason Jaacks, Steven L. Finkelstein, Volker Bromm

Using cosmological volume simulations and a custom built sub-grid model for Pop~III star formation, we examine the baseline dust extinction in the first galaxies due to Pop~III met…

Baseline Metal Enrichment from Population III Star Formation in Cosmological Volume Simulations

Jason Jaacks, Robert Thompson, Steven L. Finkelstein +1

We utilize the hydrodynamic and N-body code {\small GIZMO} coupled with our newly developed sub-grid Population~III (Pop~III) Legacy model, designed specifically for cosmological v…

Connecting the Dots: Tracking Galaxy Evolution Using Constant Cumulative Number Density at 3<z<7

Jason Jaacks, Steven L. Finkelstein, Kentaro Nagamine

Using the cosmological smoothed particle hydrodynamical code GADGET-3 we make a realistic assessment of the technique of using constant cumulative number density as a tracer of gal…

The Evolution of the Galaxy Rest-Frame Ultraviolet Luminosity Function Over the First Two Billion Years

Steven L. Finkelstein, Russell E. Ryan, Casey Papovich +26

We present a robust measurement and analysis of the rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) luminosity function at z=4-8. We use deep Hubble Space Telescope imaging over the CANDELS/GOODS fiel…
