DeepSphere: Efficient spherical convolutional neural network with HEALPix sampling for cosmological applications

Nathanaël Perraudin, Michaël Defferrard

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are a cornerstone of the Deep Learning toolbox and have led to many breakthroughs in Artificial Intelligence. So far, these neural networks (NNs) have mostly been developed for regular Euclidean domains such as those su ...

Cosmological Constraints from Multiple Probes in the Dark Energy Survey

Mingkui Wang, Yi Zhang, Eduardo Sanchez, Jonathan Andrew Blazek

The combination of multiple observational probes has long been advocated as a powerful technique to constrain cosmological parameters, in particular dark energy. The Dark Energy Survey has measured 207 spectroscopically confirmed type Ia supernova light cu ...

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 results: Methodology and projections for joint analysis of galaxy clustering, galaxy lensing, and CMB lensing two-point functions

Eduardo Sanchez, Craig Matthew Smith, Jonathan Andrew Blazek, Augusto Martins Lima, César Octavio Domínguez Sánchez De La Blanca

Optical imaging surveys measure both the galaxy density and the gravitational lensing-induced shear fields across the sky. Recently, the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Collaboration used a joint fit to two-point correlations between these observables to place ti ...

Inflationary perturbations with Lifshitz scaling

Sergey Sibiryakov

Instead of Lorentz invariance, gravitational degrees of freedom may obey Lifshitz scaling at high energies, as it happens in Horava's proposal for quantum gravity. We study consequences of this proposal for the spectra of primordial perturbations generated ...

Phenotypic redshifts with self-organizing maps: A novel method to characterize redshift distributions of source galaxies for weak lensing

Eduardo Sanchez, Romain Buchs

Wide-field imaging surveys such as the Dark Energy Survey (DES) rely on coarse measurements of spectral energy distributions in a few filters to estimate the redshift distribution of source galaxies. In this regime, sample variance, shot noise, and selecti ...

Global spatial analysis of toxic emissions to freshwater: operationalization for LCA

Anna Kounina Massé

PurposeThere is increasing interest in using fate and exposure models to spatially differentiate the impacts of chemical emissions. This work aims at exploring the operationalization in life cycle assessment (LCA) of spatially differentiated models for tox ...

Hybrid seesaw leptogenesis and TeV singlets

Luca Vecchi, Majid Ekhterachian

The appealing feature of inverse seesaw models is that the Standard Model (SM) neutrino mass emerges from the exchange of TeV scale singlets with sizable Yukawa couplings, which can be tested at colliders. However, the tiny Majorana mass splitting between ...

COSMOGRAIL XVII. Time delays for the quadruply imaged quasar PG 1115+080

Sun Hee Kim, Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Hung-Hsu Chan, Vivien François Bonvin, Malte Tewes, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate, Eric Gérard Guy Paic

We present time-delay estimates for the quadruply imaged quasar PG 1115+080. Our results are based on almost daily observations for seven months at the ESO MPIA 2.2m telescope at La Silla Observatory, reaching a signal-to-noise ratio of about 1000 per quas ...

Advanced gravitational lensing techniques for precision cosmology

Markus Rexroth

Gravitational lensing - the deflection of light by gravity - has greatly developed since its famous first observation in 1919, which validated Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. The strength of this effect does not depend on the nature of the mass wh ...

Cosmological constraints from the convergence 1-point probability distribution

Jonathan Andrew Blazek

We examine the cosmological information available from the 1-point probability density function (PDF) of the weak-lensing convergence field, utilizing fast L-PICOLA simulations and a Fisher analysis. We find competitive constraints in the Omega(m)-sigma(8) ...
