Metallicity of the intergalactic medium using pixel statistics. II. The distribution of metals as traced by C IV

Joop Schaye, Anthony Aguirre, Tae-Sun Kim +3

(Modified) We measure the distribution of carbon in the intergalactic medium as a function of redshift z and overdensity delta. Using a hydrodynamical simulation to link the H I ab…

Numerical simulations of the intergalactic medium

Tom Theuns

The intergalactic medium at redshifts 2--6 can be studied observationally through the absorption features it produces in the spectra of background quasars. Most of the UV-absorptio…

Constraints on reionization from the thermal history of the intergalactic medium

Tom Theuns, Joop Schaye, Saleem Zaroubi +3

The temperature of the diffuse, photo-heated intergalactic medium (IGM) depends on its reionization history because the thermal time scales are long. The widths of the hydrogen Lym…

Probing the Intergalactic Medium with the Lyman alpha forest along multiple lines of sight to distant QSOs

M. Viel, S. Matarrese, H. J. Mo +2

(abridged) We present an effective implementation of analytical calculations of the Lyalpha opacity distribution of the Intergalactic Medium (IGM) along multiple lines of sight (LO…

Do angular momentum induced ellipticity correlations contaminate weak lensing measurements?

Priyamvada Natarajan, Robert G. Crittenden, Ue-Li Pen +1

Alignments in the angular momentum vectors of galaxies can induce large scale correlations in their projected orientations. Such alignments arise from the tidal torques exerted on…
