Euclid preparation: LXII. Simulations and non-linearities beyond Lambda cold dark matter. 1. Numerical methods and validation

To constrain cosmological models beyond ACDM, the development of the Euclid analysis pipeline requires simulations that capture the non-linear phenomenology of such models. We present an overview of numerical methods and N-body simulation codes developed t ...

DESI 2024 III: baryon acoustic oscillations from galaxies and quasars

Jiaxi Yu, Daniel Felipe Forero Sanchez, Antoine Philippe Jacques Rocher, Rafaela Gsponer

We present the DESI 2024 galaxy and quasar baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) measurements using over 5.7 million unique galaxy and quasar redshifts in the range 0.1 < z < 2.1. Divided by tracer type, we utilize 300,017 galaxies from the magnitude-limited ...

Rubies: Jwst/nirspec Confirmation of an Infrared-luminous, Broad-line Little Red Dot with an Ionized Outflow

Michaela Hirschmann

The JWST discovery of "little red dots" (LRDs) is reshaping our picture of the early Universe, yet the physical mechanisms driving their compact size and UV-optical colors remain elusive. Here, we report an unusually bright LRD (zspec = 3.1) observed as pa ...

Fast High-Resolution Metabolite Mapping in the rat Brain Using 1H-FID-MRSI at 14.1 T

Cristina Ramona Cudalbu Moldovan, Bernard Lanz, Dunja Simicic, Jessie Julie Mosso, Thanh Phong Kevin Lê, Guillaume Miro André Briand, Brayan Alves

Magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) enables the simultaneous noninvasive acquisition of MR spectra from multiple spatial locations inside the brain. Although 1H-MRSI is increasingly used in the human brain, it is not yet widely applied in the p ...

Euclid preparation: LXX. Forecasting detection limits for intracluster light in the Euclid Wide Survey

Georges Meylan

The intracluster light (ICL) permeating galaxy clusters is a tracer of the cluster assembly history and potentially a tracer of their dark matter structure. In this work, we explore the capability of the Euclid Wide Survey to detect ICL using HE-band mock ...

Distinct origins of environmentally quenched galaxies in the core and outer virialised regions of massive clusters at 0.8 &lt; z &lt; 1.5

Yannick Michael Bahé

High-redshift (

Euclid: Early Release Observations – Unveiling the morphology of two Milky Way globular clusters out to their periphery

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

As part of the Euclid Early Release Observations (ERO) programme, we analysed deep, wide-field imaging from the VIS and NISP instruments of two Milky Way globular clusters (GCs), namely NGC 6254 (M10) and NGC 6397, to look for observational evidence of the ...

Fiducial-cosmology-dependent systematics for the DESI 2024 BAO analysis

Jiaxi Yu, Antoine Philippe Jacques Rocher

When measuring the Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) scale from galaxy surveys, one typically assumes a fiducial cosmology when converting redshift measurements into comoving distances and also when defining input parameters for the reconstruction algorit ...

Evolution of the UV slope of galaxies at cosmic morning (z > 4): The properties of extremely blue galaxies

Michaela Hirschmann

We present an analysis of the UV continuum slope, β, using a sample of 726 galaxies with z > 4, selected from a mixture of JWST ERS, GTO, and GO observational programs. We considered only spectroscopic data obtained with the low-resolution (R ∼ 30−300) PRI ...

The phase-space distribution of the M 81 satellite system

Oliver Müller, Nick Heesters

The spatial distribution of dwarf galaxies around their host galaxies is a critical test for the standard model of cosmology because it probes the dynamics of dark matter halos and is independent of the internal baryonic processes of galaxies. Comoving pla ...
