A consistent and robust measurement of the thermal state of the IGM at 2 ≤ z ≤ 4 from a large sample of Ly α forest spectra
We characterise the thermal state of the intergalactic medium (IGM) in ten redshift bins in the redshift range $2 \leq z \leq 4$ with a sample of 103 high resolution, high S/N Ly$\alpha$ forest spectra using four different...

Cylinders out of a top hat
© 2017 The Authors. Large deviation statistics is implemented to predict the statistics of cosmic densities in cylinders applicable to photometric surveys. It yields few per cent accurate analytical predictions for the one-point...
