The spectral evolution of the first galaxies: III. Simulated James Webb space telescope spectra of reionization-epoch galaxies with Lyman continuum leakage

Using four different suites of cosmological simulations, we generate synthetic spectra for galaxies with different Lyman continuum escape fractions (fesc) at redshifts z=7-9, in the rest-frame wavelength range relevant for the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) NIRSpec instrument. By investigating th...
