Description
The intergalactic medium gas is usually believed to simply trace the cosmic web structures traced by dark matter, but AGN feedback (especially jets) will probably modify this simple picture especially the IGM and CGM baryon budgets. I will talk primarily about the combining spectroscopic galaxy surveys with FRBs to probe the IGM and CGM balance, which is being implemented in the FLIMFLAM survey. I will highlight the role of Subaru PFS, the world's most powerful multiobject spectrograph, in efficiently mapping the cosmic web out to high redshift, and new applications of the field level inference technique towards this problem.
