In the beginning: the first sources of light and the reionization of the universe

R Barkana, A Loeb - Physics reports, 2001 - Elsevier
The formation of the first stars and quasars marks the transformation of the universe from its
smooth initial state to its clumpy current state. In popular cosmological models, the first …

P Madau, HC Ferguson, ME Dickinson… - Monthly Notices of …, 1996 - academic.oup.com
The Lyman decrement associated with the cumulative effect of H i in QSO absorption
systems along the line of sight provides a distinctive feature for identifying galaxies at z≳ 2.5 …

Environmental Effects on Late‐Type Galaxies in Nearby Clusters

A Boselli, G Gavazzi - Publications of the Astronomical Society of …, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org

21 centimeter tomography of the intergalactic medium at high redshift

P Madau, A Meiksin, MJ Rees - The Astrophysical Journal, 1997 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the 21 cm signature that may arise from the intergalactic medium (IGM) prior
to the epoch of full reionization (z> 5). In scenarios in which the IGM is reionized by discrete …

The star formation history of field galaxies

P Madau, L Pozzetti, M Dickinson - The Astrophysical Journal, 1998 - iopscience.iop.org
We develop a method for interpreting faint galaxy data which focuses on the integrated light
radiated from the galaxy population as a whole. The emission history of the universe at …
