Journal ArticleDOI

Lyα Emission from Structure Formation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used cosmological simulations to study the Lyα signals expected from the growth of cosmic structure from z = 0-5, and they showed that if dust absorption is negligible, recombinations following the absorption of stellar ionizing photons dominate the total Lyα photon production rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characteristic scales during reionization

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined some of the fundamental simplifying assumptions behind Furlanetto, Zaldarriaga and Hernquist's model and generalized it in several important ways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Secondary ionization and heating by fast electrons

TL;DR: In this paper, the fate of fast electrons (with energies E > 10 eV) in a thermal gas of primordial composition is examined. But the authors do not consider the effects of collisional ionization of hydrogen and helium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lyman-alpha Emission from Structure Formation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used cosmological simulations to study the Lyman-alpha signals expected from the growth of cosmic structure from z=0-5, showing that if dust absorption is negligible, recombinations following the absorption of stellar ionizing photons dominate the total Lyman alpha photon production rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of reionization on Lyα galaxy surveys

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used an analytic model of the size distribution of H II regions surrounding the sources to study the effects of reionization on the luminosity function of Lyα emitters and their observed spatial distribution.
