Abstract
Hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation such as the Illustris
simulations have progressed to a state where they approximately reproduce the
observed stellar mass function from high to low redshift. This in principle
allows self-consistent models of reionization that exploit the accurate
representation of the diffuse gas distribution together with the realistic
growth of galaxies provided by these simulations, within a representative
cosmological volume. In this work, we apply and compare two radiative transfer
algorithms implemented in a GPU-accelerated code to the
