A New Measurement of the Temperature Density Relation of the IGM From Voigt Profile Fitting

Hector Hiss, Michael Walther, Joseph F. Hennawi +3

We decompose the Lyman-α (Lyα) forest of an extensive sample of 74 high signal-to-noise ratio and high-resolution quasar spectra into a collection of Voigt profiles. Absorbers loca…

CosmoGAN: creating high-fidelity weak lensing convergence maps using Generative Adversarial Networks

Mustafa Mustafa, Deborah Bard, Wahid Bhimji +3

Inferring model parameters from experimental data is a grand challenge in many sciences, including cosmology. This often relies critically on high fidelity numerical simulations, w…

Measurement of the small-scale structure of the intergalactic medium using close quasar pairs

Alberto Rorai, Joseph F. Hennawi, Jose Oñorbe +6

The distribution of diffuse gas in the intergalactic medium (IGM) imprints a series of hydrogen absorption lines on the spectra of distant background quasars known as the Lyman-…

Constraining Reionization with the Lyman- Forest Power Spectrum: the Outlook after Planck

J. Oñorbe, J. F. Hennawi, Z. Lukić +1

The latest measurements of CMB electron scattering optical depth reported by Planck significantly reduces the allowed space of HI reionization models, pointing toward a later endin…

Statistical Detection of the HeII Transverse Proximity Effect: Evidence for Sustained Quasar Activity for 25 Million Years

Tobias M. Schmidt, Gabor Worseck, Joseph F. Hennawi +2

The HeII transverse proximity effect -- enhanced HeII Ly~transmission in a background sightline caused by the ionizing radiation of a foreground quasar -- offers a unique opport…
