Inferring the IGM thermal history during reionisation with the Lyman-α forest power spectrum at redshift z ≃ 5

We use cosmological hydrodynamical simulations to assess the feasibility of constraining the thermal history of the intergalactic medium during reionisation with the Lyα forest at z ≃ 5. The integrated thermal history has a measureable impact on the transmitted flux power spectrum that can be isolat...
