JWST Measurements of Neutral Hydrogen Fractions and Ionized Bubble Sizes at z=7-12 Obtained with Lyα Damping Wing Absorptions in 26 Bright Continuum Galaxies Published: 6/1/2023 12:39:03 PM Updated: 6/1/2023 12:39:03 PM
Paper abstract: We present volume-averaged neutral hydrogen fractions x_{\rm \HI} and
ionized bubble radii R_{\rm b} measured with Ly\alpha damping wing
absorptions of galaxies at the epoch of reionization. We combine JWST/NIRSpec
spectra taken by CEERS, GO-1433, and DDT-2750 programs, and obtain 26 bright
UV-continuum galaxies at 7
