The nature of high [OIII]88𝜇m/[CII]158𝜇m galaxies in the epoch of reionization: low carbon abundance and a top-heavy IMF?

ALMA observations of z>6 galaxies have revealed abnormally high [OIII]88μm/[CII]158μm ratios and [CII] deficits compared to local galaxies. The origin of this behaviour is unknown. Numerous solutions have been proposed including differences in C and O abundance ratios, observational bias, and dif...
