Effect of intergalactic medium on the observability of Ly[alpha] emitters during cosmic reionization

We perform a systematic study of how the inhomogeneities in the intergalactic medium (IGM) affect the observability of Ly[alpha] emitters (LAEs) around the epoch of reionization. We focus on the IGM close to the galaxies as the detailed ionization distribution and velocity fields of this region coul...
