Scale invariant Einstein-Cartan gravity and flat space conformal symmetry

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Georgios Karananas, Sebastian Zell

We find the conditions under which scale-invariant Einstein-Cartan gravity with scalar matter fields leads to an approximate conformal invariance of the flat space particle theory up to energies of the order of the Planck mass. In the minimal setup, these ...

Cosmic void exclusion models and their impact on the distance scale measurements from large-scale structure

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Amélie Tamone, Andrei Variu, Daniel Felipe Forero Sanchez, Cheng Zhao

Baryonic Acoustic Oscillations (BAOs) studies based on the clustering of voids and matter tracers provide important constraints on cosmological parameters related to the expansion of the Universe. However, modelling the void exclusion effect is an importan ...

Strong and micro lensing in distant quasars

Eric Gérard Guy Paic

Most large galaxies contain Super Massive Black Holes at their centers, drawing matter nearby to form swirling accretion disks emitting electromagnetic radiation. These are Active Galactic Nuclei. The brightest quasars are the most luminous Universe object ...

Cosmological constraints with the linear point from the BOSS survey

Huanyuan Shan, Cheng Zhao

The Linear Point (LP), defined as the mid-point between the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) peak and the associated left dip of the two-point correlation function (2PCF), xi(s), is proposed as a new standard ruler which is insensitive to non-linear effec ...

Euclid preparation XXIV. Calibration of the halo mass function in λ(ν)CDM cosmologies

Slobodan Ilic, Georges Meylan, Frédéric Courbin, Fabio Finelli, Maurizio Martinelli, Gianluca Castignani, Marcello Farina, Austin Chandler Peel, Yi Wang

Euclid's photometric galaxy cluster survey has the potential to be a very competitive cosmological probe. The main cosmological probe with observations of clusters is their number count, within which the halo mass function (HMF) is a key theoretical quanti ...

DESI mock challenge Halo and galaxy catalogues with the bias assignment method

Yu Yu, Cheng Zhao, Ginevra Favole

Context. We present a novel approach to the construction of mock galaxy catalogues for large-scale structure analysis based on the distribution of dark matter halos obtained with effective bias models at the field level. Aims. We aim to produce mock galaxy ...

Euclid: Cosmology forecasts from the void-galaxy cross-correlation function with reconstruction

Georges Meylan, Frédéric Courbin, Richard Massey, Yi Wang

We have investigated the cosmological constraints that can be expected from measurement of the cross-correlation of galaxies with cosmic voids identified in the Euclid spectroscopic survey, which will include spectroscopic information for tens of millions ...

An Unbiased Method of Measuring the Ratio of Two Data Sets

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Huanyuan Shan

In certain cases of astronomical data analysis, the meaningful physical quantity to extract is the ratio R between two data sets. Examples include the lensing ratio, the interloper rate in spectroscopic redshift samples, and the decay rate of gravitational ...

The DESI One-Percent survey: exploring the Halo Occupation Distribution of Emission Line Galaxies with AbacusSummit simulations

Jiaxi Yu, David Schlegel, Hanyu Zhang, Zheng Zheng

The One-Percent survey of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument collected similar to 270k emission line galaxies (ELGs) at 0.8 < z < 1.6. The high completeness of the sample allowed the clustering to be measured down to scales never probed before, 0.04 ...

Probing compact dark matter objects with microlensing in gravitationally lensed quasars

Frédéric Courbin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Eric Gérard Guy Paic, Hung-Hsu Chan, Petra Awad

The microlensing signal in the light curves of gravitationally lensed quasars can shed light on the dark matter (DM) composition in their lensing galaxies. Here, we investigate a sample of six lensed quasars from the most recent and best COSMOGRAIL observa ...

PINION: physics-informed neural network for accelerating radiative transfer simulations for cosmic reionization

Michele Bianco, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Emma Elizabeth Tolley

With the advent of the Square Kilometre Array Observatory (SKAO), scientists will be able to directly observe the Epoch of Reionization by mapping the distribution of neutral hydrogen at different redshifts. While physically motivated results can be simula ...

Examining the relationship between the bulge-to-total stellar mass ratio and dwarf galaxy count in the context of ΛCDM

Oliver Müller

Previous results suggest that there is a correlation between the size of the bulge of a galaxy and the number of its dwarf galaxy satellites. This was found to be inconsistent with the standard model of cosmology based on comparisons to semi-analytical dar ...
