Description
Small-scale correlations measured in the Lyman-α (Lyα) forest encode information about the intergalactic medium and the primordial matter power spectrum. I my talk, I will introduce a simple and fast method for measuring the 3D Lyman-alpha forest power spectrum at small scales. This measurement approach builds upon the well-established Fast Fourier Transform method used for P1D. I will present results of the method’s evaluation on cosmological simulations and a proof-of-principle measurement using real data obtained from SDSS QSO spectra. The goal is to apply this measurement to the DESI Y1 data sample, and as such, I will discuss some prospects related to this.
