Damped Lyman Alpha Systems in Galaxy Formation Simulations
Andrew Pontzen, Fabio Governato, Max Pettini +6
We investigate the population of z=3 damped Lyman alpha absorbers (DLAs) in a recent series of high resolution galaxy formation simulations. The simulations are of interest because…
How cold is cold dark matter? Small scales constraints from the flux power spectrum of the high-redshift Lyman-alpha forest
M. Viel, G. D. Becker, J. S. Bolton +3
We present constraints on the mass of warm dark matter (WDM) particles derived from the Lyman-alpha flux power spectrum of 55 high- resolution HIRES spectra at 2.0 < z < 6.4. From…
A combined analysis of 3D Weak Lensing, Lyman-alpha forest and WMAP year three data
J. Lesgourgues, M. Viel, M. G. Haehnelt +1
We present constraints on the amplitude and shape of the matter power spectrum and the density of dark matter within the framework of a standard LambdaCDM model. We use a Markov Ch…
The correlation of the Lyman-alpha forest and metals in close pairs of hight-redshift quasars
F. Coppolani, P. Petitjean, F. Stoehr +6
We derive the transverse flux correlation function in the Lyman-alpha forest at z~2.1 from VLT-FORS observations of a total of 32 pairs of quasars. The shape and correlation length…
The Lyman-alpha forest according to LUQAS
M. Viel, M. Haehnelt, T. -S. Kim +6
We use the LUQAS sample of 27 high resolution, high signal-to-noise QSO absorption spectra (Kim et al. 2004) and the results from Croft et al. (2002) together with a suite of high-…
Joint Formation of Supermassive Black Holes and Galaxies
Martin G. Haehnelt
The tight correlation between black hole mass and velocity dispersion of galactic bulges is strong evidence that the formation of galaxies and supermassive black holes are closely…
