Scientific paper

I present estimates for the cross-correlation of the Lyman-α flux (and flux variance) with CMB convergence maps. These cross-correlations should be detectable by upcoming experiments that are already taking data (Planck and SDSS-III). I also show that the two correlators are sensitive to different wavelengths of the density field and potentially represent a new useful cosmological tool to probe intermediate-to-small scales and to successfully constrain the Lyman-α flux-matter relation.
