TDCOSMO I. An exploration of systematic uncertainties in the inference ofH(0)from time-delay cosmography

Strong-lensing time delays enable the measurement of the Hubble constant (H0) independently of other traditional methods. The main limitation to the precision of time-delay cosmography is mass-sheet degeneracy (MSD). Some of the previous TDCOSMO analyses b ...

The completed SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: measurement of the BAO and growth rate of structure of the emission line galaxy sample from the anisotropic power spectrum between redshift 0.6 and 1.1

Cheng Zhao, Anand Stéphane Raichoor, Amélie Tamone, Claudio Gorgoni

We analyse the large-scale clustering in Fourier space of emission line galaxies (ELG) from the Data Release 16 of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey. The ELG sample contains 173736 galaxies covering 1170deg(2) ...

Completed SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Cosmological implications from two decades of spectroscopic surveys at the Apache Point Observatory

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao, Anand Stéphane Raichoor, Zheng Zheng, Amélie Tamone, Andrei Variu

We present the cosmological implications from final measurements of clustering using galaxies, quasars, and Ly alpha forests from the completed Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) lineage of experiments in large-scale structure. These experiments, composed of ...

Measurement of baryon acoustic oscillation correlations at z=2.3 with SDSS DR12 Ly alpha-Forests

Timothée Guy Olivier Delubac

Here, we use flux-transmission correlations in Ly alpha forests to measure the imprint of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO). The study uses spectra of 157,783 quasars in the redshift range 2.1

The Sdss-Iv Extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Overview And Early Data

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao, Anand Stéphane Raichoor, David Schlegel, Timothée Guy Olivier Delubac, Zheng Zheng

In a six-year program started in 2014 July, the Extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) will conduct novel cosmological observations using the BOSS spectrograph at Apache Point Observatory. These observations will be conducted simultaneous ...

Cosmological parameter estimation with large scale structure observations

Julien Lesgourgues

We estimate the sensitivity of future galaxy surveys to cosmological parameters, using the redshift dependent angular power spectra of galaxy number counts, C-l(z(1), z(2)), calculated with all relativistic corrections at first order in perturbation theory ...

Influence of physical galaxy properties on Ly alpha escape in star-forming galaxies

Context. Among the different observational techniques used to select high-redshift galaxies, the hydrogen recombination line Lyman-alpha (Ly alpha) is of particular interest because it gives access to the measurement of cosmological quantities such as the ...

Planck 2013 results. XVI. Cosmological parameters

Xin Chen, Julien Lesgourgues

This paper presents the first cosmological results based on Planck measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and lensing-potential power spectra. We find that the Planck spectra at high multipoles (l greater than or similar to 40) a ...

Optimal polarisation equations in FLRW universes

Julien Lesgourgues

This paper presents the linearised Boltzmann equation for photons for scalar, vector and tensor perturbations in flat, open and closed FLRW cosmologies. We show that E- and B-mode polarisation for all types can be computed using only a single hierarchy. Th ...

Galaxy Scale Lenses In The Rcs2. I. First Catalog Of Candidate Strong Lenses

We present the first galaxy scale lens catalog from the second Red-Sequence Cluster Survey. The catalog contains 60 lensing system candidates comprised of Luminous Red Galaxy (LRG) lenses at 0.2 less than or similar to z less than or similar to 0.5 surroun ...

CMB photons shedding light on dark matter

Julien Lesgourgues, Benjamin Audren

The annihilation or decay of Dark Matter (DM) particles could affect the thermal history of the universe and leave an observable signature in Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropies. We update constraints on the annihilation rate of DM particles in ...

Galaxies In X-Ray Groups. I. Robust Membership Assignment And The Impact Of Group Environments On Quenching

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib

Understanding the mechanisms that lead dense environments to host galaxies with redder colors, more spheroidal morphologies, and lower star formation rates than field populations remains an important problem. As most candidate processes ultimately depend o ...
