  Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory:

STUDYING THE EVOLUTION OF THE UNIVERSE WITH QUASAR SPECTRA + 
IDENTIFYING
MATERIALS USING COSMIC RAYS, AND THE APPLICATION ON DAMAGED CORES AT
FUKUSHIMA POWER PLANT.

  The Lyman-alpha forest in spectra of distant quasars is the main 
tracer
of cosmological structure at high redshifts, 2<z<5, and is accessible 
to
current (BOSS/eBOSS) and future (DESI) spectroscopic sky surveys.   On
large-scales, the Ly-a power spectrum can be used as a standard ruler,
measuring the scale of Baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO).      On
small-scales, the Ly-a forest enables constraining neutrino masses, and
more generally opens an additional window into the nature of dark
matter.  Extracting precision cosmology information from the forest
statistics amounts to solving inverse problem, i.e. running accurate
simulations for a large number of different cosmologies, which are to 
be
compared against the observations.  Besides presenting latest BOSS
results, I will also go over a number of topics relevant for modeling
forest statistics, both numerical – like the resolution or the
box-size as well as physical ones, like our understanding of the UV
background.  Finally, I will briefly present the Nyx code we have build
to efficiently run Lyman-alpha forest simulations on massively parallel
computers.

In addition, a separate topic on identifying materials using cosmic 
rays
and its application on damaged cores at Fukushima power plant will also
be discussed.
