We present a novel technique for calculating \Lya forest correlations based on cell counts. It is applied to the line lists from 7 QSOs observed at high resolution ($\Delta v 3h^{-1}\Mpc$.}
LYMAN-ALPHA FOREST CORRELATIONS USING NEIGHBOR COUNTS (1995)
Meiksin, Avery, Bouchet, Francois R.
We present a novel technique for calculating the two-point autocorrelation function of the Lyman-alpha forest based on the relation between the two-point correlation function and the Neighbor...
The Structure and Evolution of Lyman-alpha Forest Clouds in the Minihalo Model (1994)
Results are presented for one-dimensional numerical hydrodynamics computations of the structure and evolution of Lya forest clouds gravitationally confined by dark matter minihalos. The clouds are...
