The challenge of measuring and mapping the missing baryons
Abstract
The missing baryon problem may now be resolved, but the exact location and physical properties of the diffuse component remains unclear. This problem could be tractable, but requires a combination of new galaxy redshift surveys and new X-ray and radio facilities.
