Reionization of the Universe

Movies and images from my 2000 paper (ApJ, 535, 530)

New Movies

Volume rendering of the gas density plus the surface of the ionization front colored by the gas density (created with IFRIT v1.2).
Fly-by through a single frame of the above movie at z=8 (created with IFRIT v1.2). The inside of the surface is colored by gas temperature.
Volume rendering of the neutral hydrogen density (opaque = neutral) plus the isosurfaces of gas density colored by the value of gas temperature (created with IFRIT v1.2).
"If you were a hydrogen atom" animation: volume rendering of the neutral hydrogen density plus stellar particles (yellow dots) in perspective projection (created with IFRIT v1.2).
Volume rendering of the neutral hydrogen density (opaque = neutral) plus galaxies (shown as yellow dots; created with IFRIT v2.2).
