Chasing the Beginning of Reionization in the JWST Era

Chasing the Beginning of Reionization in the JWST Era

Recent JWST observations at z  > 6 may imply galactic ionizing photon production above prior expectations. Under observationally motivated assumptions about escape fractions, these suggest a z  ~ 8–9 end to reionization, in tension with the z  < 6 end required by the Ly α forest. In this work,...
