The correlation between Lyman-alpha absorption in the spectra of quasar pairs can be used to measure the transverse distance scale at z~2, which is sensitive to the cosmological constant (Omega_Lambda) or other forms of vacuum energy. Using…
We present the first robust measurement of the one-dimensional Lyman alpha (Ly$\alpha$) forest bispectrum using the complete extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) quasar sample, corresponding to the sixteenth data release…
The one-dimensional power spectrum $P_{\mathrm{1D}}$ of Ly$\alpha$ forest offers rich insights into cosmological and astrophysical parameters, including constraints on the sum of neutrino masses, warm dark matter models, and the thermal…
We present the one-dimensional Lyman-$\alpha$ forest power spectrum measurement derived from the data release 1 (DR1) of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). The measurement of the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest power spectrum along the…
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…
The Lyman-$\beta$ forest refers to a region in the spectra of distant quasars that lies between the rest-frame Lyman-$\beta$ and Lyman-$\gamma$ emissions. The forest in this region is dominated by a combination of absorption due to resonant…
We present the first detection of a correlation between the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest and cosmic microwave background (CMB) lensing. For each Lyman-$\alpha$ forest in SDSS-III/BOSS DR12, we correlate the one-dimensional power spectrum with the…
We present the one-dimensional Lyman-$\alpha$ forest power spectrum measurement using the first data provided by the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). The data sample comprises $26,330$ quasar spectra, at redshift $z > 2.1$,…
We present the Lyman-$\alpha$ flux power spectrum measurements of the XQ-100 sample of quasar spectra obtained in the context of the European Southern Observatory Large Programme "Quasars and their absorption lines: a legacy survey of the…
On large scales, the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest provides insights into the expansion history of the Universe, while on small scales, it imposes strict constraints on the growth history, the nature of dark matter, and the sum of neutrino masses.…
We present an analysis of Si III absorption and its effect on the 1D Ly$\alpha$ forest power spectrum using the Sherwood-Relics hydrodynamical simulation suite. In addition to oscillations from the Ly$\alpha$--Si III cross correlation that…
We present the first measurements of Lyman-$\alpha$ (Ly$\alpha$) forest correlations using early data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). We measure the auto-correlation of Ly$\alpha$ absorption using 88,509 quasars at…
We measure the 1D Ly$\,\alpha$ power spectrum $P_\mathrm{1D}$ from Keck Observatory Database of Ionized Absorption toward Quasars (KODIAQ), The Spectral Quasar Absorption Database (SQUAD) and XQ-100 quasars using the optimal quadratic…
We test a method to reduce unwanted sample variance when predicting Lyman-$\alpha$ (ly$\alpha$) forest power spectra from cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. Sample variance arises due to sparse sampling of modes on large scales and…
We present new cosmological parameter constraints from the eBOSS Lyman-$\alpha$ forest survey. We use a new theoretical model and likelihood based on the PRIYA simulation suite. PRIYA is the first suite to resolve the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest…
Using a sample of approximately 14,000 z>2.1 quasars observed in the first year of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS), we measure the three-dimensional correlation function of absorption in the Lyman-alpha forest. The…
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 1D Ly-$\alpha$ forest flux power spectrum $P_{\mathrm{1D}}$ is sensitive to scales smaller than a typical galaxy survey, and hence ties to the intergalactic medium's thermal state, suppression from neutrino masses and new dark matter…
Cosmological information is usually extracted from the Lyman-$\alpha$ forest correlations using only either large-scale information interpreted through linear theory or using small-scale information interpreted by means of expensive…
We measure the matter power spectrum from the Lyman-alpha forest of 31 quasar spectra spanning the redshift range of 1.6-3.6. The optical depth, $\tau$, for absorption of the intergalactic medium is obtained from the flux using the…
