Diagnosing feedback with the Lyman-alpha forest at z~0.1

If you have a question about this talk, please contact Martin Haehnelt .

I will introduce a new set of state-of-the-art hydrodynamical simulations of the intergalactic medium—the Sherwood simulation suite—and compare them to a wide variety of Lyman-alpha forest observations obtained with ground and space based observatories. While the agreement between observational data and theory is excellent at z>2, significant differences remain at lower redshift, particularly for the Lyman-alpha forest at z~0.1 observed using the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) on the HST . I shall discuss the nature of this discrepancy, what it may imply about galactic feedback in the low redshift Universe, and advance some possible explanations for its resolution.
