Blind QSO reconstruction challenge: Exploring methods to reconstruct the Lyα emission line of QSOs
arxiv(2024)
摘要
Reconstructing the intrinsic Lyα line flux from high-z QSOs can
place constraints on the neutral hydrogen content of the intergalactic medium
during reionisation. There are now ≳10 different Lyα
reconstruction pipelines using different methodologies to predict the
Lyα line flux from correlations with the spectral information redward of
Lyα. However, there have been few attempts to directly compare the
performance of these pipelines. Therefore, we devised a blind QSO challenge to
compare these reconstruction pipelines on a uniform set of objects. Each author
was provided de-identified, observed rest-frame QSO spectra with spectral
information only redward of 1260Å rest-frame to ensure unbiased
reconstruction. We constructed two samples of 30 QSOs, from X-Shooter and SDSS
both spanning 3.5更多
