Description
I will review some recent work in measuring intrinsic alignments between large-scale structure (LSS) and galaxy angular momenta and shapes, using hydrodynamic cosmological simulations. I will then preview an upcoming forecast of the LSS-galaxy alignment signal which will be measured by the Subaru Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS), with data from the IllustrisTNG simulation and LSS reconstruction through IGM tomography.
