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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Cartesian and spherical multipole expansions in anisotropic media

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Elias Per Joachim Le Boudec, Jose Felix Vega Stavro, Thomas Chaumont

The multipole expansion, a ubiquitous tool in a variety of physical problems, can be formulated in spherical and Cartesian coordinates. By constructing an explicit map linking both formulations in isotropic media, we discover a lack of equivalence between ...

New insight on the nature of cosmic reionizers from the CEERS survey

Michaela Hirschmann

The Epoch of Reionization (EoR) began when galaxies grew in abundance and luminosity, so their escaping Lyman continuum (LyC) radiation started ionizing the surrounding neutral intergalactic medium (IGM). Despite significant recent progress, the nature and ...

Hydrodynamical simulations of merging galaxy clusters: giant dark matter particle colliders, powered by gravity

Strong gravitational lensing's 'external shear' is not shear

David Richard Harvey

The distribution of mass in galaxy-scale strong gravitational lenses is often modelled as an elliptical power-law plus 'external shear', which notionally accounts for neighbouring galaxies and cosmic shear along our line of sight. A small amount of externa ...
