Revealing galaxy candidates out to z similar to 16 with JWST observations of the lensing cluster SMACS0723

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Hakim Atek

One of the main goals of the JWST is to study the first galaxies in the Universe. We present a systematic photometric analysis of very distant galaxies in the first JWST deep field towards the massive lensing cluster SMACS0723. As a result, we report the d ...

Void Lensing in Cubic Galileon Gravity

Cheng Zhao, Huanyuan Shan, Jiaxi Yu, Qiao Wang

Weak-lensing studies via cosmic voids are a promising probe of modified gravity (MG). The excess surface mass density (ESD) is widely used as a lensing statistic in weak-lensing research. In this paper, we use the ray-tracing method to study the ESD around ...

The Pandora project - I. The impact of radiation, magnetic fields, and cosmic rays on the baryonic and dark matter properties of dwarf galaxies

Marion Nancy Amandine Farcy

Enshrouded in several well-known controversies, dwarf galaxies have been extensively studied to learn about the underlying cosmology, notwithstanding that physical processes regulating their properties are poorly understood. To shed light on these processe ...

A 0.9% calibration of the Galactic Cepheid luminosity scale based on Gaia DR3 data of open clusters and Cepheids

Richard Irving Anderson, Mauricio Cruz Reyes

We have conducted a search for open clusters in the vicinity of classical Galactic Cepheids based on high-quality astrometry from the third data release (DR3) of the ESA mission Gaia to improve the calibration of the Leavitt law (LL). Our approach requires ...

Dark Energy Survey Year 3 results: Cosmology from combined galaxy clustering and lensing validation on cosmological simulations

Jonathan Andrew Blazek

We present a validation of the Dark Energy Survey Year 3 (DES Y3) 3 x 2-point analysis choices by testing them on BUZZARD2.0, a new suite of cosmological simulations that is tailored for the testing and validation of combined galaxy clustering and weak-len ...

New constraints on the mass of fermionic dark matter from dwarf spheroidal galaxies

Alexey Boyarsky, Diego Blas Temino, Kyrylo Bondarenko

Dwarf spheroidal galaxies are excellent systems to probe the nature of fermionic dark matter due to their high observed dark matter phase-space density. In this work, we review, revise, and improve upon previous phase-space considerations to obtain lower b ...

Constraining the primordial magnetic field with dwarf galaxy simulations

Pascale Jablonka, Yves Revaz, Salim Bennouna, Mahsa Sanati

Using a set of cosmological hydro-dynamical simulations, we constrained the properties of primordial magnetic fields by studying their impact on the formation and evolution of dwarf galaxies. We performed a large set of simulations (8 dark matter only and ...

UV-extended E-MILES stellar population models: young components in massive early-type galaxies

Elena Ricciardelli

We present UV-extended E-MILES stellar population synthesis models covering the spectral range.. 1680-50 000 angstrom at moderately high resolution. We employ the NGSL space-based stellar library to compute spectra of single-age, single-metallicity stellar ...

Molecular gas content in strongly lensed z similar to 1.5-3 star-forming galaxies with low infrared luminosities

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib

To extend the molecular gas measurements to more typical star-forming galaxies (SFGs) with star formation rates SFR < 40 M-circle dot yr(-1) and stellar masses M-* < 2.5 x 10(10) M-circle dot at z similar to 1.5-3, we have observed CO emission with the IRA ...

Hubble Frontier Fields: a high-precision strong-lensing analysis of galaxy cluster MACSJ0416.1-2403 using similar to 200 multiple images

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Hakim Atek, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Markus Rexroth

We present a high-precision mass model of the galaxy cluster MACSJ0416.1-2403, based on a strong-gravitational-lensing analysis of the recently acquired Hubble Space Telescope Frontier Fields (HFF) imaging data. Taking advantage of the unprecedented depth ...

Influence of physical galaxy properties on Ly alpha escape in star-forming galaxies

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Hakim Atek

Context. Among the different observational techniques used to select high-redshift galaxies, the hydrogen recombination line Lyman-alpha (Ly alpha) is of particular interest because it gives access to the measurement of cosmological quantities such as the ...

UV-extending ghost inflation

Sergey Sibiryakov, Mikhail Ivanov

We present a setup that provides a partial UV-completion of the ghost inflation model up to a scale which can be almost as high as the Planck mass. This is achieved by coupling the inflaton to the Lorentz-violating sector described by the Einstein-aether t ...

COSMOGRAIL: the COSmological MOnitoring of GRAvItational Lenses

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Yves Revaz, Malte Tewes

We present accurate time delays for the quadruply imaged quasar HE 0435-1223. The delays were measured from 575 independent photometric points obtained in the R-band between January 2004 and March 2010. With seven years of data, we clearly show that quasar ...

Simultaneous estimation of time delays and quasar structure

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Christel Vuissoz

We expand our Bayesian Monte Carlo method for analyzing the light curves of gravitationally lensed quasars to simultaneously estimate time delays and the sizes of quasar continuum emission regions including their mutual uncertainties. We apply the method t ...

Global universe anisotropy probed by the alignment of structures in the cosmic microwave background

Pierre Vandergheynst, Yves Wiaux

We question the global universe isotropy by probing the alignment of local structures in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. The original method proposed relies on a steerable wavelet decomposition of the CMB signal on the sphere. The analysis ...
