Kavli Affiliate: Martin Haehnelt | Summary:We present measurements of the spatially averaged HeII photo-ionization rate ($langle Γ_rm HeII rangle$), mean free path of HeII ionizing photons ($λ_rm mfp, HeII$), and HeII fraction ($f_rm HeII$) across seven redshift bins within the redshift range $2<z<4$. The measurements are obtained by comparing the observed effective optical depth distribution […]
