The dawn of the first stars, galaxies and black holes signaled a fundamental milestone in our Universes evolution: the Epoch of Reionization. The light from these galactic ancestors began spreading out, ionizing virtually every atom in existence. Ou...Lasīt vairāk
This brief brings together the theoretical aspects of star formation and ionized regions with the most up-to-date simulations and observations. Beginning with the basic theory of star formation, the physics of expanding HII regions is reviewed in det...Lasīt vairāk
