Abstract Type : Poster Abstract Category : Extragalactic astronomy Abstract : Clustering of Lyman-alpha forest is the small-scale distribution of Lyman-alpha absorption lines along the line of sight direction. We used the large cosmological hydrodynamic simulations to study the clustering properties of the Lyman-alpha forest in both real and redshift space. Among the various parameters characterizing the clustering of Lyman-alpha forest that we studied, we will present our result on the large-scale Lyman-alpha clustering dependence on the equation of state of the intergalactic medium, the quasar continuum, and the ionizing ultraviolet background. |
