Probing the metallicity and ionization state of the circumgalactic medium at z~6 and beyond with OI absorption

Low-ionization metal absorption due to O I has been identified as an important probe of the physical state of the intergalactic/circumgalactic medium at the tail end of reionization. We use here high-resolution hydrodynamic simulations to interpret the incidence rate of O I absorbers at z ∼ 6 as obs...
