The Fractal Geometry of the Cosmic Web and Its Formation
The cosmic web structure is studied with the concepts and methods of fractal geometry, employing the adhesion model of cosmological dynamics as a basic reference. The structures of matter clusters and cosmic voids in cosmological N‐body simulations or the Sloan Digital Sky Survey are elucidated by means of multifractal geometry.

Radiative transfer through the Intergalactic Medium
We use a probabilistic method to compute the propagation of an ionization front corresponding to the re-ionization of the intergalactic medium in a LCDM cosmology, including both hydrogen and helium.

A New Limit on Intergalactic Magnetic Fields on Subkiloparsec Scales from Fast Radio Bursts
We use the measured scattering timescales of fast radio bursts (FRBs) from the CHIME catalog to derive an upper limit on the magnetic field on subkiloparsec scales in the intergalactic medium (IGM).

Gamma‐Ray Burst Prompt Correlations
The mechanism responsible for the prompt emission of gamma‐ray bursts (GRBs) is still a debated issue. The prompt phase‐related GRB correlations can allow discriminating among the most plausible theoretical models explaining this emission. We present an overview of the observational two‐parameter correlations, their physical interpretations, and their ...

A hot intergalactic medium? [PDF]
On a de nouveau examine l'hypothese d'un milieu intergalactique chaud produisant le fond RX 5-200 keV, en tenant compte des corrections relativistes pour l'emissivite du gaz, la thermodynamique et la diffusion ...

Gamma‐Ray Bursts: A Radio Perspective
Gamma‐ray bursts (GRBs) are extremely energetic events at cosmological distances. They provide unique laboratory to investigate fundamental physical processes under extreme conditions. Due to extreme luminosities, GRBs are detectable at very high redshifts and potential tracers of cosmic star formation rate at early epoch. While the launch of Swift and

Numerical simulations of the Warm-Hot Intergalactic Medium [PDF]
In this paper we review the current predictions of numerical simulations for the origin and observability of the warm hot intergalactic medium (WHIM), the diffuse gas that contains up to 50 per cent of the baryons at z~0.

We investigate the relationship between the Ly α forest transmission in the intergalactic medium (IGM) and the environmental density of galaxies, focusing on its implications for the measurement of ionizing radiation escape fractions.
