Interpreting observations of the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest flux power spectrum requires interpolation between a small number of expensive simulations. We present a Gaussian process emulator modelling the 1D flux power spectrum as a function of…
We perform for the first time full simulation-based inference on the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest 1D power spectrum. In particular, we consider the prediction of the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest $P_{\rm 1D}(k)$ at $2.0<z<3.5$ from the CAMELS cosmological…
We present methods for interpolating between the 1-D flux power spectrum of the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest, as output by cosmological hydrodynamic simulations. Interpolation is necessary for cosmological parameter estimation due to the limited…
We explore the use of Deep Learning to infer physical quantities from the observable transmitted flux in the Lyman-alpha forest. We train a Neural Network using redshift z=3 outputs from cosmological hydrodynamic simulations and mock…
The inference of cosmological quantities requires accurate and large hydrodynamical cosmological simulations. Unfortunately, their computational time can take millions of CPU hours for a modest coverage in cosmological scales ($\approx (100…
The inference of astrophysical and cosmological properties from the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest conventionally relies on summary statistics of the transmission field that carry useful but limited information. We present a deep learning framework…
The Lyman-alpha forest provides strong constraints on both cosmological parameters and intergalactic medium astrophysics, which are forecast to improve further with the next generation of surveys including eBOSS and DESI. As is generic in…
Full-physics cosmological simulations are powerful tools for studying the formation and evolution of structure in the universe but require extreme computational resources. Here, we train a convolutional neural network to use a cheaper…
We present a general framework for obtaining robust bounds on the nature of dark matter using cosmological $N$-body simulations and Lyman-alpha forest data. We construct an emulator of hydrodynamical simulations, which is a flexible,…
We present the Lyssa suite of high-resolution cosmological simulations of the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest designed for cosmological analyses. These 18 simulations have been run using the Nyx code with $4096^3$ hydrodynamical cells in a 120 Mpc…
We aim to construct a machine-learning approach that allows for a pixel-by-pixel reconstruction of the intergalactic medium (IGM) density field for various warm dark matter (WDM) models using the Lyman-alpha forest. With this regression…
We present a neural network emulator to constrain the thermal parameters of the intergalactic medium (IGM) at $\displaystyle{5.4}\le{z}\le{6.0}$ using the Lyman-$\displaystyle\alpha$ (Ly$\displaystyle\alpha$) forest flux auto-correlation…
The distribution of absorption lines in the spectra of distant quasars, called the Lyman-$\alpha$ (Ly-$\alpha$) forest, is a unique probe of cosmology and the intergalactic medium at high redshifts and small scales. The statistical power of…
The one-dimensional flux power spectrum (P1D) of the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest probes small-scale structure in the intergalactic medium (IGM) and is therefore sensitive to a variety of cosmological and astrophysical parameters. These include…
We present a Neural Network based emulator for the galaxy redshift-space power spectrum that enables several orders of magnitude acceleration in the galaxy clustering parameter inference, while preserving 3$\sigma$ accuracy better than…
We extend our super-resolution and emulation framework for cosmological dark matter simulations to include hydrodynamics. We present a two-stage deep learning model to emulate high-resolution (HR-HydroSim) baryonic fields from…
In this work we extend our recently developed multi-fidelity emulation technique to the simulated Lyman-$\alpha$ forest flux power spectrum. Multi-fidelity emulation allows interpolation of simulation outputs between cosmological parameters…
We derive and numerically implement an algorithm for estimating the 3D power spectrum of the Lyman-$\alpha$ (Ly-$\alpha$) forest flux fluctuations. The algorithm exploits the unique geometry of Ly-$\alpha$ forest data to efficiently measure…
We review recent developments in the theory of the Lyman-alpha forest and their implications for the role of the forest as a test of cosmological models. Simulations predict a relatively tight correlation between the local Lya optical depth…
The forest of Lyman-$\alpha$ absorption lines detected in the spectra of distant quasars encodes information on the nature and properties of dark matter and the thermodynamics of diffuse baryonic material. Its main observable -- the 1D flux…
