DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION, AND SCIENCE FORECASTS FOR THE TERAHERTZ INTENSITY MAPPER
… create a 4-D tomographic map of the redshifted [CII] emission line over the GOODS-South/Chandra deep field at ∼ 0.2 square degrees across a redshift range 0.5 ≲ z ≲ 1.7. This will allow TIM to apply (and demonstrate) the novel line intensity mapping (LIM) technique across roughly 5 billion years …

Numerical Simulations of Galaxy Formation During the Epoch of Reionization
… observations target far-infrared lines such as [CII] and [OIII] which directly probe the interstellar medium (ISM) of these $z>6$ galaxies. In order to study this epoch, I employ the RAMSES-RT code, which allows for the computation of multifrequency radiative transfer on-the-fly. I modified this …
