New Paper: Stochastic Reionization from the Smallest Galaxies
Also last week, we submitted a paper, led by Pengfei Chen (now in the finance sector), on the stochastic nature of reionization during its initial phases. Here we used the galactic properties from the Renaissance Simulations as the source model in a reionization simulation. We find that before a redshift of 10 (age of … Continue Reading ››
