Abstract: |
The success of large-scale structure theories provides a foundation for predicting the fate of gas in the universe from the recombination epoch until today. The predictions are illustrated with models of the intergalactic medium as revealed through the Lyα forest. Wider implications are discussed, including the possibility of shifting the observational basis of our understanding of galaxy formation from the optical toward the radio. |
