FirstLight IV: Diversity in sub-L\$_*\$ galaxies at cosmic dawn. Ceverino, D., Hirschmann, M., Klessen, R., Glover, S., Charlot, S., & Feltre, A. arXiv e-prints, 2102:arXiv:2102.12343, February, 2021. Paper abstract bibtex Using a large sample of sub-L\$_*\$ galaxies, with similar UV magnitudes, M\$_\{{\textbackslash}rm UV\}{\textbackslash}simeq -19\$ at \$z{\textbackslash}simeq6\$, extracted from the FirstLight simulations, we show the diversity of galaxies at the end of the reionization epoch. We find a factor \${\textbackslash}sim\$40 variation in the specific star-formation rate (sSFR). This drives a \${\textbackslash}sim\$1 dex range in equivalent width of the [OIII]\${\textbackslash}lambda\$5007 line. Variations in nebular metallicity and ionization parameter within HII regions lead to a scatter in the equivalent widths and [OIII]/H\${\textbackslash}alpha\$ line ratio at a fixed sSFR. [OIII]-bright emitters have higher ionization parameters and/or higher metallicities than H\${\textbackslash}alpha\$-bright galaxies. According to the surface brightness maps in both [OIII] and H\${\textbackslash}alpha\$, [OIII]-bright emitters are more compact than H\${\textbackslash}alpha\$-bright galaxies. H\${\textbackslash}alpha\$ luminosity is higher than [OIII] if star formation is distributed over extended regions. OIII dominates if it is concentrated in compact clumps. In both cases, the H\${\textbackslash}alpha\$-emitting gas is significantly more extended than [OIII].
