| Abstract | The Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX) is a cosmology survey designed to map out one million galaxies in the distant Universe. In this project, a team of scientists from the Missouri University of Science and Technology will pioneer a method for mapping matter in the universe, called Line Intensity Mapping. The spectrum of light on each direction on the sky can reveal a map of undetected galaxies along the line of sight, which comes from special Lyman-alpha photons that were |
