We present an analytical model for cosmological Lyman-limit systems (LLS) that successfully reproduces the observed evolution of the mean free path (λeff) of ionizing photons. The evolution of the co-moving mean free path is predominantly a consequen... Read More about A halo model for cosmological Lyman-limit systems.

Simulations of the reionization of the clumpy intergalactic medium with a novel particle-based two-moment radiative transfer scheme (2023)
Journal Article

The progress of cosmic reionization depends on the presence of over-dense regions that act as photon sinks. Such sinks may slow down ionization fronts as compared to a uniform intergalactic medium (IGM) by increasing the clumping factor. We present s...
