Quasi-stellar objects acting as potential strong gravitational lenses in the SDSS-III BOSS survey

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Frédéric Courbin, Timothée Guy Olivier Delubac

We present a sample of 12 quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) that potentially act as strong gravitational lenses on background emission line galaxies (ELG) or Lyman-alpha emitters (LAEs) selected through a systematic search of the 297 301 QSOs in the Sloan Digit ...

Non-perturbative probability distribution function for cosmological counts in cells

Sergey Sibiryakov, Mikhail Ivanov

We present a non-perturbative calculation of the 1-point probability distribution function (PDF) for the spherically-averaged matter density field. The PDF is represented as a path integral and is evaluated using the saddle-point method. It factorizes into ...

Boosting the dark matter signal with Coulomb resonances

Rakhi Nandalal Mahbubani, Kin Shanho Eliaou Mimouni

We show that the presence of nearby Coulombic resonances at finite energy could lead to the enhancement of the dark matter annihilation cross section at specific non-zero velocities correlated with the mass splitting between the dark matter pair and that o ...

VLT/FLAMES high-resolution chemical abundances in Sculptor: a textbook dwarf spheroidal galaxy

Pascale Jablonka

We present detailed chemical abundances for 99 red-giant branch stars in the centre of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy, which have been obtained from high-resolution VLT/FLAMES spectroscopy. The abundances of Li, Na, alpha-elements (O, Mg, Si, Ca Ti), ...

Observation of the 1S-2P Lyman-alpha transition in antihydrogen

Shirit Cohen

In 1906, Theodore Lyman discovered his eponymous series of transitions in the extreme-ultraviolet region of the atomic hydrogen spectrum(1,2). The patterns in the hydrogen spectrum helped to establish the emerging theory of quantum mechanics, which we now ...

Dissecting cold gas in a high-redshift galaxy using a lensed background quasar

Frédéric Courbin

We present a study of cold gas absorption from a damped Lyman-alpha absorber (DLA) at redshift z(abs) = 1.946 toward two lensed images of the quasar J144254.78+405535.5 at redshift z(QSO) = 2.590. The physical separation of the two lines of sight at the ab ...

A High Space Density of Luminous Ly alpha Emitters at z similar to 6.5

Hakim Atek, Patrick Mccarthy

We present the results of a systematic search for Ly alpha emitters (LAEs) at 6 less than or similar to z less than or similar to 7.6 using the HST WFC3 Infrared Spectroscopic Parallel (WISP) Survey. Our total volume over this redshift range is similar to ...

A gravitationally boosted MUSE survey for emission-line galaxies at z greater than or similar to 5 behind the massive cluster RCS 0224

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Richard Massey, Johan Richard

We present a Very Large Telescope/Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) survey of lensed high-redshift galaxies behind the z = 0.77 cluster RCS 0224-0002. We study the detailed internal properties of a highly magnified (mu similar to 29) z = 4.88 galaxy ...

Measurement of baryon acoustic oscillation correlations at z=2.3 with SDSS DR12 Ly alpha-Forests

Timothée Guy Olivier Delubac

Here, we use flux-transmission correlations in Ly alpha forests to measure the imprint of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO). The study uses spectra of 157,783 quasars in the redshift range 2.1

MUSE- inspired view of the quasar Q2059-360, its Lyman alpha blob, and its neighborhood

Frédéric Courbin, Pierre North, Claudio Gorgoni

The radio-quiet quasar Q2059-360 at redshift z = 3 : 08 is known to be close to a small Lyman ff blob (LAB) and to be absorbed by a proximate damped Ly ff (PDLA) system. Here, we present the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) integral field spectrosc ...

CODEX weak lensing: concentration of galaxy clusters at z similar to 0.5

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Huanyuan Shan

We present a stacked weak-lensing analysis of 27 richness selected galaxy clusters at 0.40
