A too-many-dwarf-galaxy-satellites problem in the M 83 group

Dwarf galaxies in groups of galaxies provide excellent test cases for models of structure formation. This led to a so-called small-scale crisis, including the famous missing-satellites and too-big-to-fail problems. It was suggested that these two problems ...

BENIGN LANDSCAPES OF LOW-DIMENSIONAL RELAXATIONS FOR ORTHOGONAL SYNCHRONIZATION ON GENERAL GRAPHS

Nicolas Boumal

Orthogonal group synchronization is the problem of estimating n elements Z(1),& mldr;,Z(n) from the rxr orthogonal group given some relative measurements R-ij approximate to Z(i)Z(j)(-1). The least-squares formulation is nonconvex. To avoid its local minim ...

TDCOSMO I. An exploration of systematic uncertainties in the inference ofH(0)from time-delay cosmography

Frédéric Courbin

Strong-lensing time delays enable the measurement of the Hubble constant (H0) independently of other traditional methods. The main limitation to the precision of time-delay cosmography is mass-sheet degeneracy (MSD). Some of the previous TDCOSMO analyses b ...

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

Jiaxi Yu, Zheng Zheng, David Schlegel, Hanyu Zhang

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 ...

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

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Yi Wang, Richard Massey

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 ...

Constraining the baryonic feedback with cosmic shear using the DES Year-3 small-scale measurements

Eduardo Sanchez, Jonathan Andrew Blazek, Yi Zhang, Binglun Yin

We use the small scales of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year-3 cosmic shear measurements, which are excluded from the DES Year-3 cosmological analysis, to constrain the baryonic feedback. To model the baryonic feedback, we adopt a baryonic correction model ...

Tightening weak lensing constraints on the ellipticity of galaxy-scale dark matter haloes

Anand Stéphane Raichoor

Cosmological simulations predict that galaxies are embedded into triaxial dark matter haloes, which appear approximately elliptical in projection. Weak gravitational lensing allows us to constrain these halo shapes and thereby test the nature of dark matte ...

Pascale Jablonka, Hung-Hsu Chan

Context. The study of galaxy cluster mass profiles (M(r)) provides constraints on the nature of dark matter and on physical processes affecting the mass distribution. The study of galaxy cluster velocity anisotropy profiles (beta (r)) informs the orbits of ...

The distribution of dark matter and gas spanning 6 Mpc around the post-merger galaxy cluster MS0451-03

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, David Richard Harvey, Mathilde Jauzac, Baptiste Philippe Klein, Richard Massey

Using the largestmosaic of Hubble Space Telescope images around a galaxy cluster, we map the distribution of darkmatter throughout an similar to 6 x 6 Mpc(2) area centred on the clusterMS 0451-03 (z = 0.54, M-200 = 1.65 x 10(15) M-circle dot). Our joint st ...

Exploiting flux ratio anomalies to probe warm dark matter in future large-scale surveys

Frédéric Courbin, Alexey Boyarsky, David Richard Harvey, Amélie Tamone, Wessel Valkenburg

Flux ratio anomalies in strong gravitationally lensed quasars constitute a unique way to probe the abundance of non-luminous dark matter haloes, and hence the nature of dark matter. In this paper, we identify double-imaged quasars as a statistically effici ...

Cosmological Constraints from Multiple Probes in the Dark Energy Survey

Eduardo Sanchez, Jonathan Andrew Blazek, Mingkui Wang, Yi Zhang, Yue Pan

The combination of multiple observational probes has long been advocated as a powerful technique to constrain cosmological parameters, in particular dark energy. The Dark Energy Survey has measured 207 spectroscopically confirmed type Ia supernova light cu ...

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 results: Methodology and projections for joint analysis of galaxy clustering, galaxy lensing, and CMB lensing two-point functions

Eduardo Sanchez, Jonathan Andrew Blazek, Augusto Martins Lima, César Octavio Domínguez Sánchez De La Blanca, Craig Matthew Smith

Optical imaging surveys measure both the galaxy density and the gravitational lensing-induced shear fields across the sky. Recently, the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Collaboration used a joint fit to two-point correlations between these observables to place ti ...

A detection of wobbling brightest cluster galaxies within massive galaxy clusters

A test for skewed distributions of dark matter, and a possible detection in galaxy cluster Abell 3827

Frédéric Courbin, David Richard Harvey, Rémy Elie Joseph, Mathilde Jauzac, Richard Massey

Simulations of self-interacting dark matter predict that dark matter should lag behind galaxies during a collision. If the interaction is mediated by a high-mass force carrier, the distribution of dark matter can also develop asymmetric dark matter tails. ...
