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…
