Avi’s most recent initiative is the Starshot project, which explores possibility of interstellar travel (https://breakthroughinitiatives.org/Initiative/3).
Title: Simulating Lyman-Alpha Sources in the Epoch of Reionization Abstract: Radiation from the first stars and galaxies initiated the dramatic phase transition marking an end to the cosmic dark ages. The emission and absorption signatures from the Lyman-alpha (Lyα) transition of neutral hydrogen have been indispensable in extending the observational frontier for high-redshift galaxies into … Continue reading "Aaron Smith (UT-Austin): Simulating Lyman-Alpha Sources in the Epoch of Reionization"
