Low-z Lyα and CGM simulation–observation research2026-09-08Five absorber updates: RHD line matching, CGM winds, Na I flows, SpenderQ, and IFU geometryFive papers show how profile matching, feedback choices, flow classification, continuum reconstruction, and IFU geometry shape absorber comparisons before the final physical inference.1
Low-z Lyα and CGM simulation–observation research2026-09-01Synthetic absorption spectra to real absorbers: low-z Lyα, CGM, and ML methodsThis first issue maps the simulation-to-observation bridge across low-z Lyα and CGM studies. It covers FLAME, Simba and Auriga comparisons, SALSA, CNN and random-forest methods, UV-background systematics, and public code links, while labeling broader-redshift and synthetic-only results clearly.1
