Ephemeral headers are the section of the chain between the current head and end of the post most recent CL sync period. Since the HistoricalSummaries which contains the finalized block roots for each sync period, doesn't have a finalized root for blocks in the current period (since it's not been finalized yet), we keep "ephemeral" headers and provide them in responses to FINDCONTENT messages. Ideally, our set of ephemeral headers should include headers starting with the header contained in the most current optimistic update we know and then contain ancestors of that header back to the first block in the sync period.
Here is all the work I'm aware of related to supporting this:
