Intra-cluster light as a dynamical clock for galaxy clusters: Insights from the MAGNETICUM, IllustrisTNG, Hydrangea, and Horizon-AGN simulations

Context. As the most massive nodes of the cosmic web, galaxy clusters represent the best probes of structure formation. Over time, they grow by accreting and disrupting satellite galaxies, adding those stars to the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) and the in ...

Euclid preparation: LII. Forecast impact of super-sample covariance on 3A- 2pt analysis with Euclid

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

Context. Deviations from Gaussianity in the distribution of the fields probed by large-scale structure surveys generate additional terms in the data covariance matrix, increasing the uncertainties in the measurement of the cosmological parameters. Super-sa ...

High-redshift metallicity calibrations for JWST spectra: insights from line emission in cosmological simulations

Michaela Hirschmann

Optical emission-line ratios are traditionally used to estimate gas metallicities from observed galaxy spectra. While such estimators have been calibrated primarily at low redshift, they are commonly used to interpret observations of high-redshift galaxies ...

Effects of prestress implementation on self-stress state in large-scale tensegrity structure

Thomas Keller, Tara Habibi

Tensegrity structures are spatial, reticulated, and lightweight structures that are composed of struts and cables. Stability is provided by a self-stress state between tensioned and compressed members obtained by prestress. Although the form finding of ten ...

How much metal did the first stars provide to the ultra-faint dwarfs?

Fabien Nicolas Jeanquartier, Pascale Jablonka, Yves Revaz, Mahsa Sanati

Numerical simulations of dwarf galaxies have so far failed to reproduce the observed metallicity-luminosity relation, down to the regime of ultra-faint dwarfs (UFDs). We address this issue by exploring how the first generations of metal-free stars (Pop III ...

Time delay lens modelling challenge

Frédéric Courbin, Vivien François Bonvin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Aymeric Alexandre Galan

In recent years, breakthroughs in methods and data have enabled gravitational time delays to emerge as a very powerful tool to measure the Hubble constant H-0. However, published state-of-the-art analyses require of order 1 yr of expert investigator time a ...

Weak-lensing mass reconstruction using sparsity and a Gaussian random field

Austin Chandler Peel

Aims. We introduce a novel approach to reconstructing dark matter mass maps from weak gravitational lensing measurements. The cornerstone of the proposed method lies in a new modelling of the matter density field in the Universe as a mixture of two compone ...

Modeling and Analysis of a Direct Time-of-Flight Sensor Architecture for LiDAR Applications

Edoardo Charbon, Chunmin Zhang, Preethi Padmanabhan

Direct time-of-flight (DTOF) is a prominent depth sensing method in light detection and ranging (LiDAR) applications. Single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) arrays integrated in DTOF sensors have demonstrated excellent ranging and 3D imaging capabilities, ma ...
