Machine-learning methods for weak lensing analysis of the ESA Euclid sky survey

A clear picture has emerged from the last three decades of research: our Universe is expanding at an accelerated rate. The cause of this expansion remains elusive, but in essence acts as a repulsive force. This so-called dark energy represents about 69% of ...

Scale-invariant alternatives to general relativity

Diego Blas Temino

We study the general class of gravitational field theories constructed on the basis of scale invariance (and therefore absence of any mass parameters) and invariance under transverse diffeomorphisms, which are the 4-volume conserving coordinate transformat ...

A Framework for Numerical Simulations of Structure Formation

Claude Becker

In the absence of a full analytical treatment of nonlinear structure formation in the universe, numerical simulations provide the critical link between the properties of the underlying model and the features of the observed structures. Currently N-body sim ...

Primordial constraint on the spatial dependence of the Newton constant

Pierre Vandergheynst, Yves Wiaux

A Nordtvedt effect at cosmological scales affects the acoustic oscillations imprinted in the cosmic microwave background. The gravitational baryonic mass density of the universe is inferred at the first peak scale from WMAP data. The independent determinat ...
