Results of fits of the data assuming increasingly complicated forms for ξph(r⊥,r∥): Lyα absorption only; including metal absorption; including unidentified HCDs; and including fluctuations in the ionizing UV flux (i.e. the complete physical model whose complete set of parameters is given in Table 3).

Notes. Fits are over the range 10 <r< 180 h-1 Mpc. The bias parameter, bLyα, refers to the reference redshift z = 2.3.
