The completed SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: cosmological implications from multitracer BAO analysis with galaxies and voids

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao, Huanyuan Shan, Jiaxi Yu, Daniel Felipe Forero Sanchez, Amélie Tamone, Andrei Variu

We construct cosmic void catalogues with the DIVE void finder upon SDSS BOSS DR12 and eBOSS DR16 galaxy samples with BAO reconstruction, and perform a joint BAO analysis using different types of galaxies and the corresponding voids. The BAO peak is evident ...

Dark matter in galaxy clusters: Parametric strong-lensing approach

Benjamin Emmanuel Nicolas Beauchesne

We present a parametric strong-lensing analysis of three massive galaxy clusters for which Hubble Space Telescope imaging is available, as well as spectroscopy of multiply imaged systems and galaxy cluster members. Our aim is to probe the inner shape of da ...

Cosmic void baryon acoustic oscillation measurement: evaluation of sensitivity to selection effects

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao, Daniel Felipe Forero Sanchez, Amélie Tamone, Andrei Variu

Cosmic voids defined as a subset of Delaunay triangulation (DT) circumspheres have been used to measure the baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) scale; providing tighter constraints on cosmological parameters when combined with matter tracers. These voids ar ...

Virgo filaments I. Processing of gas in cosmological filaments around the Virgo cluster

Pascale Jablonka, Gianluca Castignani

It is now well established that galaxies have different morphologies, gas contents, and star formation rates (SFR) in dense environments like galaxy clusters. The impact of environmental density extends to several virial radii, and galaxies appear to be pr ...

The completed SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: N-body mock challenge for galaxy clustering measurements

Cheng Zhao

We develop a series of N-body data challenges, functional to the final analysis of the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) Data Release 16 (DR16) galaxy sample. The challenges are primarily based on high-fidelity catalogues constructed ...

On the influence of halo mass accretion history on galaxy properties and assembly bias

Ginevra Favole

Halo assembly bias is the secondary dependence of the clustering of dark matter haloes on their assembly histories at fixed halo mass. This established dependence is expected to manifest itself on galaxy clustering, a potential effect commonly known as gal ...

SEEDisCS: I. Molecular gas in galaxy clusters and their large-scale structure: The case of CL1411.1-1148 at z similar to 0.5

Pascale Jablonka, Gianluca Castignani, Damien Louis Alexandre Spérone-Longin

We investigate how the galaxy reservoirs of molecular gas fuelling star formation are transformed while the host galaxies infall onto galaxy cluster cores. As part of the Spatially Extended ESO Distant Cluster Survey (SEEDisCS), we present CO(3-2) observat ...

Testing general relativity on cosmological scales at redshift z similar to 1.5 with quasar and CMB lensing

Cheng Zhao

We test general relativity (GR) at the effective redshift (z) over tilde similar to 1.5 by estimating the statistic E-G, a probe of gravity, on cosmological scales 19 - 190 h(-1)Mpc. This is the highest redshift and largest scale estimation of E-G so far. ...

The GOGREEN survey: transition galaxies and the evolution of environmental quenching

Pascale Jablonka, Hung-Hsu Chan

We measure the rate of environmentally driven star formation quenching in galaxies at z similar to 1, using eleven massive () galaxy clusters spanning a redshift range 1.0 < z < 1.4 from the GOGREEN sample. We identify three different types of transition g ...

The GOGREEN survey: dependence of galaxy properties on halo mass a z > 1 and implications for environmental quenching

Pascale Jablonka, Hung-Hsu Chan

We use photometric redshifts and statistical background subtraction to measure stellar mass functions in galaxy group-mass (4.5-8 x 10(13) M-circle dot) haloes at 1 < z < 1.5. Groups are selected from COSMOS and SXDF, based on X-ray imaging and sparse spec ...

Removing imaging systematics from galaxy clustering measurements with Obiwan: application to the SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey emission-line galaxy sample

Cheng Zhao, Anand Stéphane Raichoor

This work presents the application of a new tool, Obiwan, which uses image simulations to determine the selection function of a galaxy redshift survey and calculate three-dimensional (3D) clustering statistics. Obiwan relies on a forward model of the proce ...
