Effect of Separate Initial Conditions on the Lyman- Forest in Simulations
M. A. Fernandez, Simeon Bird, Phoebe Upton Sanderbeck
Using a set of high resolution simulations, we quantify the effect of species specific initial transfer functions on probes of the IGM via the Lyman- forest. We focus on redshif…
