Constraints on the Mass of Warm Dark Matter Particles and the Shape of the Linear Power Spectrum from the L[CLC]y[/CLC]α Forest

High resolution N-body simulations of cold dark matter (CDM) models predict that galaxies and clusters have cuspy halos with excessive substructure. Observations reveal smooth halos with central density cores. One possible resolution of this conflict is that the dark matter is warm (WDM); this will suppress the power spectrum on …
