Ionizing Photon Escape Fractions from High Redshift Dwarf Galaxies
It has been argued that low-luminosity dwarf galaxies are the dominant source of ionizing radiation during cosmological reionization. The fraction of ionizing radiation that escapes into the intergalactic medium from dwarf galaxies with masses less than ∼10 solar masses plays a critical role during this epoch. Using an extensive suite of very high resolution (0.1 pc), adaptive mesh refinement, ...
متن کاملThe Escape of Ionizing Photons from Ob Associations in Disk Galaxies: Radiation Transfer through Superbubbles
By solving the time-dependent radiation transfer problem of stellar radiation through evolving superbubbles within a smoothly varying H I distribution, we have estimated the fraction of ionizing photons emitted by OB associations that escapes the H I disk of our Galaxy. We considered a coeval star-formation history and a Gaussian star-formation history with a time spread σt = 2 Myr. We find tha...
متن کاملEscape of Ionizing Radiation from High Redshift Galaxies
We model the escape of ionizing radiation from high-redshift galaxies using high-resolution Adaptive Mesh Refinement N-body+hydrodynamics simulations. Our simulations include time-dependent and spatiallyresolved transfer of ionizing radiation in three dimensions, including effects of dust absorption. For galaxies of total mass M & 1011 M⊙ and star formation rates SFR ≈ 1 − 5 M⊙ yr−1, we find an...
متن کاملEscape of Ionizing Radiation from High–Redshift Galaxies
We use a three-dimensional radiation transfer code to calculate the steady-state escape fraction of ionizing photons from disk galaxies as a function of redshift and galaxy mass. The gaseous disks are assumed to be isothermal (with a sound speed cs ∼ 10 km s) and radially exponential. Their scale-radius is related to the characteristic spin parameter and virial radius of their host halos, and t...
متن کاملDwarf Galaxies with Ionizing Radiation Feedback. Ii: Spatially-resolved Star Formation Relation
We investigate the spatially-resolved star formation relation using a galactic disk formed in a comprehensive high-resolution (3.8 pc) simulation. Our new implementation of stellar feedback includes ionizing radiation as well as supernova explosions, and we handle ionizing radiation by solving the radiative transfer equation rather than by a subgrid model. Photoheating by stellar radiation stab...
