  15. 1. Transmission & Optical depth ()*+ ,-. Optical depth: " = − %& ' Transmission: ' = ()*+ /01 Transmission ������������� redshi redshi � ��� � ��� ft ft Method1: measuring the transmission and optical depth

  16. 2. Dark gaps statistics optical depth~2.5 5.27 5.58 5.89 6.21 6.52 Ly α redshift Lower Lower Higher transmission Higher Higher transmission transmission transmission transmission Observer, z=0 Quasar, z=6.6 (ionized) Method2: counting the gap span by two adjacent peaks

  17. 2. Dark gaps statistics median of the gap width z = 5.48-5.83 0.20 ŠNumber of the gaps 0.66 Šz = 5.83-6.18 0.80 Šz = 6.18-6.54 z>6.1 �� Gap width( Š) ��� Method2: The gaps size(neutral region) is larger at higher redshift

  18. 3. The dark pixel fraction dark pixel not dark pixel 5.74 5.91 6.07 6.23 6.40 Ly α redshift �������������� (neutral) � ����� No need to assume the intrinsic flux! Method3: dark fraction = upper limit of the neutral fraction

  19. 3. The dark pixel fraction Neutral fraction z>6.1 ����� Method3: dark fraction = upper limit of the neutral fraction

  20. Three abs. tests up to z~6.6 1.Transmission: flux~0 at z>6 even with our high-quality spectrum. We found a 2. Dark gap distribution: bright QSO at A jump of gap width at z=6.6 5.8<z<6.2 3. Dark pixel fraction: Many thanks for your attention!
