Transverse and longitudinal correlation functions in the Intergalactic Medium from 32 close pairs of high-redshift quasars (2006)

Abstract
We present the transverse flux correlation function of the Lyman-alpha forest in quasar absorption spectra at z~2.1 from VLT-FORS and VLT-UVES observations of a total of 32 pairs of quasars; 26 pairs with separations in the range 0.6. Comment: accepted for publication in MNRAS, Appendix B and C will be published online only
