... This talk focuses on exploring the connection between Ly absorbers and galaxies. The theorist view of gas in the low z universe is based on the filamentary structures that are evident in simulations based on the CDM paradigm. ... The observer's view of gas in the low-z universe is based on the Ly absorbers which have column densities as low as 10 cm , while galaxies are at column densities of 10 cm . ... The absorber has N cm . ... Can examine LSS defined by gas-rich galaxies around absorbers. ...

As the Universe expands, gravity pulls on the Universe, and slows the expansion down over time. As we look to great distances, we are looking back in time. If we can measure how fast the Universe is expanding in the past, and compare it to how fast it is expanding now, we can see the total gravitational effect of all matter in the Universe. Here we plot the distance between two galaxies as a function of time. ... Universes with lots of material . ...
