Galaxy surveys contain information on the largest scales via wide-angle and relativistic contributions. By combining two different galaxy populations, we can suppress the strong cosmic variance on ultra-large scales and thus enhance the…
Relativistic effects are sensitive to subtle changes in dark energy. These effects grow on very large scales and at high redshifts, which will be the reach of upcoming surveys. We investigate these effects in both the linear and the angular…
We measure the linear power spectrum of mass density fluctuations at redshift z=2.5 from the \lya forest absorption in a sample of 19 QSO spectra, using the method introduced by Croft et al. (1998). The P(k) measurement covers the range…
We present the measurement of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) from the Lyman-$\alpha$ (Ly$\alpha$) forest of high-redshift quasars with the first-year dataset of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). Our analysis uses over…
Separating the cosmological redshifted 21-cm signal from foregrounds is a major challenge. We present the cross-correlation of the redshifted 21-cm emission from neutral hydrogen (HI) in the post-reionization era with the Ly-alpha forest as…
When measuring the one-dimensional power spectrum of the Ly$\alpha$ forest, it is common to measure the power spectrum in flux fluctuations red-ward of the Ly$\alpha$ emission of quasars and subtract this power from the measurements of the…
In gravitational instability models, there is a close relationship between most Lyman-alpha absorption and the matter density along the line of sight. Croft et al. (1997) have shown that it is possible to use this relationship with some…
We investigate the three-point correlation between the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest and the CMB weak lensing ($\delta_F \delta_F \kappa$) expressed as the cross-correlation between the CMB weak lensing field and local variations in the forest…
We re-examine the effects of redshift space distortion in all-sky galaxy redshift surveys in the formalism of spherical harmonics. Within this framework we show how one can treat both the large-scale linear effects, and the small-scale…
We study the clustering properties of z~5.7 Lyman-alpha emitters (LAEs) in a cosmological reionization simulation with a full Lya radiative transfer calculation. Lya radiative transfer substantially modifies the intrinsic Lya emission…
Baryon Acoustic Oscillations can be measured with sub-percent precision above redshift two with the Lyman-alpha forest auto-correlation and its cross-correlation with quasar positions. This is one of the key goals of the Dark Energy…
We report the first detection at a median redshift $z = 2.49$ of large-scale matter flows around cosmic voids. Voids are identified within a tomographic map of large-scale Lyman-$\alpha$ (Ly$\alpha$) transmissions, built from the eBOSS…
We present a general relativistic description of galaxy clustering in a FLRW universe. The observed redshift and position of galaxies are affected by the matter fluctuations and the gravity waves between the source galaxies and the…
We explore the signatures of quintessence and modified gravity theories in the relativistic description of galaxy clustering within a parametrized post-Friedmann framework. For this purpose, we develop a calibration method to consistently…
We expect a detectable correlation between two seemingly unrelated quantities: the four point function of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and the amplitude of flux decrements in quasar (QSO) spectra. The amplitude of CMB convergence…
The standard cosmological analysis with the Ly$\alpha$ forest relies on a continuum fitting procedure that suppresses information on large scales and distorts the three-dimensional correlation function on all scales. In this work, we…
Massive spectroscopic surveys of high-redshift quasars yield large numbers of correlated Lyman {\alpha} absorption spectra that can be used to measure large-scale structure. Simulations of these surveys are required to accurately interpret…
Correlations in the Lyman-$\alpha$ (Ly$\alpha$) forest, both as a function of line of sight separation (1D) and 3D separation, provide a unique window to the distribution of matter at redshifts not accessible by current galaxy surveys.…
Understanding a behavior of galaxy biasing is crucial for future galaxy redshift surveys. One aim is to measure the baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs) within the precision of a few percent level. Using 30 large cosmological N-body…
We investigate the detectability of leading-order relativistic effects in the bispectrum of future 21cm intensity mapping surveys. The relativistic signal arises from Doppler and other line-of-sight effects in redshift space. In the power…
