WMAP1 + MareNostrum Sim.
Correlation between optical depth τs=-ln Fs in the hydro spectra (smoothed at the BOSS resolution) and the smoothed DM overdensity (1+δs) at the same location along the line of sight for
different choice of DM smoothing scales. Here, spectra are computed in redshift-space
while DM density is computed
in real space (s-r).
