Lyman- forest holography: 3D predictions from 1D measurements
J. Chaves-Montero, A. Font-Ribera, J. Aguilar +68
The paper introduces ForestFlow, an emulator that connects one‑dimensional Lyman‑α forest flux power spectrum measurements to three‑dimensional clustering predictions, enabling com…
CoLoRe-2LPT: Lyman- mock catalogues for the validation of DESI cosmological analyses
M. F. Ruiz-Herrera Bernal, S. Avila, A. Font-Ribera +90
The paper presents fast Lyman‑α forest mock catalogues generated with second‑order Lagrangian perturbation theory (2LPT) that accurately reproduce small‑scale clustering, BAO broad…
Validation of the DESI DR2 Ly forest full-shape analysis
M. Herbold, A. Cuceu, P. Martini +107
The paper validates the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Data Release 2 analysis of the Lyman‑α forest, focusing on extracting the Alcock‑Paczynski (AP) measurement from…
DESI DR2 Results IV: Alcock-Paczyński Measurements from the Lyman Alpha Forest and Cosmological Constraints
DESI Collaboration, A. G. Adame, J. Aguilar +164
The DESI DR2 analysis measures the Alcock‑Paczynski effect using the full shape of Lyman‑α forest auto‑ and cross‑correlations, achieving 1% precision at redshift 2.33 and providin…
A multi-eigenbasis approach to covariance matrix denoising for cosmological inference
Wynne Turner
Accurate covariance matrix estimation is crucial to cosmological analyses, enabling unbiased parameter inference with well-calibrated uncertainties. Obtaining a reliable estimate g…
Probing the limits of cosmological information from the Lyman- forest 2-point correlation functions
Wynne Turner, Andrei Cuceu, Paul Martini +48
The standard cosmological analysis with the Ly forest relies on a continuum fitting procedure that suppresses information on large scales and distorts the three-dimensional cor…
