Analytical and EZmock covariance validation for the DESI 2024 results

Jiaxi Yu, Daniel Felipe Forero Sanchez

The estimation of uncertainties in cosmological parameters is an important challenge in Large-Scale-Structure (LSS) analyses. For standard analyses such as Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) and Full-Shape two approaches are usually considered. First: anal ...

Euclid preparation: LXV. Determining the weak lensing mass accuracy and precision for galaxy clusters

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

The ability to measure unbiased weak-lensing (WL) masses is a key ingredient to exploit galaxy clusters as a competitive cosmological probe with the ESA Euclid survey or future missions. We investigate the level of accuracy and precision of cluster masses ...

LXXI. Simulations and nonlinearities beyond ΛCDM. 3. Constraints on f(R) models from the photometric primary probes

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

We study the constraint on f(R) gravity that can be obtained by photometric primary probes of the Euclid mission. Our focus is the dependence of the constraint on the theoretical modelling of the nonlinear matter power spectrum. In the Hu–Sawicki f(R) grav ...

The Pristine Dwarf-galaxy Survey: Vi. a Vlt/flames Spectroscopic Study of the Dwarf Galaxy Bootes Ii

Pascale Jablonka, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

Aims. The Milky Way has a large population of dwarf galaxy satellites. Their properties are sensitive to both cosmology and the physical processes underlying galaxy formation, but these properties are still not properly characterised for the entire satelli ...

Small-amplitude Red Giants Elucidate the Nature of the Tip of the Red Giant Branch as a Standard Candle

Nolan Wayne Koblischke, Richard Irving Anderson

The tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) is an important standard candle for determining luminosity distances. Although several 105 small-amplitude red giant stars (SARGs) have been discovered, variability was previously considered irrelevant for the TRGB as ...

Euclid preparation: XLVII. Improving cosmological constraints using a new multi-tracer method with the spectroscopic and photometric samples

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

Future data provided by the Euclid mission will allow us to better understand the cosmic history of the Universe. A metric of its performance is the figure-of-merit (FoM) of dark energy, usually estimated with Fisher forecasts. The expected FoM has previou ...

JWST Observations Reject Unrecognized Crowding of Cepheid Photometry as an Explanation for the Hubble Tension at 8σ Confidence

Richard Irving Anderson

We present high-definition observations with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) of >1000 Cepheids in a geometric anchor of the distance ladder, NGC 4258, and in five hosts of eight Type Ia supernovae, a far greater sample than previous studies with JWST ...

Cosmological constraints from density-split clustering in the BOSS CMASS galaxy sample

Daniel Felipe Forero Sanchez

We present a clustering analysis of the BOSS DR12 CMASS galaxy sample, combining measurements of the galaxy two-point correlation function and density-split clustering down to a scale of 1 h^{-1} Mpc. Our theoretical framework is based on emulators trained ...

Calibrating and Standardizing the Tip of the Red Giant Branch in the Small Magellanic Cloud Using Small-amplitude Red Giants

Nolan Wayne Koblischke, Richard Irving Anderson

We investigate the absolute calibration of the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) using small amplitude red giant stars (SARGs) classified by the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE). We show that all stars ne ...

STRIDES: automated uniform models for 30 quadruply imaged quasars

Frédéric Courbin, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon, Martin Raoul Robert Millon

Gravitational time delays provide a powerful one-step measurement of H-0, independent of all other probes. One key ingredient in time-delay cosmography are high-accuracy lens models. Those are currently expensive to obtain, both, in terms of computing and ...

DESI mock challenge: constructing DESI galaxy catalogues based on FastPM simulations

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao, Andrei Variu

Together with larger spectroscopic surveys such as the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), the precision of large-scale structure studies and thus the constraints on the cosmological parameters are rapidly improving. Therefore, one must build real ...
