Description

Lyman-alpha forest probes matter distribution on scales inaccessible to other observables, presenting a unique and under-explored testing ground for new physics. I will discuss recent advances in using forest observations to constrain particle interactions in the neutrino and dark matter sectors, and highlight promising opportunities for discovery in the coming decade.
