Damped Lyman α absorbers as a probe of stellar feedback

We examine the abundance, clustering and metallicity of Damped Lyman α Absorbers (DLAs) in a suite of hydrodynamic cosmological simulations using the moving mesh code arepo. We incorporate models of supernova and AGN feedback, as well as molecular hydrogen formation. We compare our simulations to th...
