A stellar feedback origin for neutral hydrogen in high-redshift quasar-mass haloes
Observations reveal that quasar host haloes at z ∼ 2 have large covering fractions of cool dense gas ( 60 per cent for Lyman limit systems within a projected virial radius). Most simulations have so far failed to explain these large observed covering fractions. We analyse a new set of 15 simulated massive haloes with explicit stellar feedback from the FIRE project, covering the halo mass range ...
متن کاملA Stellar Feedback Origin for Neutral Hydrogen in High-Redshift Quasar-Mass Halos
Observations of quasar pairs reveal that quasar host halos at z ∼ 2 have large covering fractions of cool dense gas (& 60% for Lyman limit systems within a projected virial radius). Most simulations have so far failed to explain these large observed covering fractions. We analyze a new set of 15 simulated massive halos with explicit stellar feedback from the FIRE project, covering the halo mass...
متن کاملEstimating the continuum of quasars using the articial neural networks
A lot of absorption lines are in the bluewards of Lyα emission line of quasar which is well-known as Lyαforest. Most of absorption lines in this forest belong to the Lyα absorption of the neutral hydrogen in the inter-galactic medium (IGM). For high redshift quasars and in the continuum with low and medium resolution, there are no many regions without absorption, so that, the quasar continuum i...
متن کاملNeutral hydrogen in galaxy halos at the peak of the cosmic star formation history
Gas inflows and outflows regulate star formation in galaxies. Probing these processes is one of the central motivations for spectroscopic measurements of the circum-galactic medium. We use high-resolution cosmological zoom-in simulations from the FIRE project to make predictions for the covering fractions of neutral hydrogen around galaxies at z = 2−4. These simulations resolve the interstellar...
متن کاملNovel Ways to Probe the Universe with Gamma-Ray Bursts and Quasars
I consider novel ways by which Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) and quasars can be used to probe the universe. Clues about how and when was the intergalactic medium ionized can be read off the UV emission spectrum of GRB explosions from the first generation of stars. The existence of intergalactic and galactic stars can be inferred from their gravitational microlensing effect on GRB afterglows. Prior to...
