TDCOSMO. IV. Hierarchical time-delay cosmography - joint inference of the Hubble constant and galaxy density profiles

Frédéric Courbin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Aymeric Alexandre Galan, Adriano Agnello

The H0LiCOWcollaboration inferred via strong gravitational lensing time delays a Hubble constant value of H0 = 73 :3+1:7 1:8 km s 1 Mpc 1, describing deflector mass density profiles by either a power-law or stars (constant mass-to-light ratio) plus standar ...

The Pristine survey - X. A large population of low-metallicity stars permeates the Galactic disc

Pascale Jablonka, Pierre North, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard, Romain Ely Roland Lucchesi

The orbits of the least chemically enriched stars open a window on the formation of our Galaxy when it was still in its infancy. The common picture is that these low-metallicity stars are distributed as an isotropic, pressure-supported component since thes ...

H0LiCOW XII. Lens mass model of WFI2033-4723 and blind measurement of its time-delay distance and H-0

Frédéric Courbin, Hung-Hsu Chan, Vivien François Bonvin

We present the lens mass model of the quadruply-imaged gravitationally lensed quasar WFI2033 - 4723, and perform a blind cosmographical analysis based on this system. Our analysis combines (1) time-delay measurements from 14 yr of data obtained by the COSm ...

DeepSphere: Efficient spherical convolutional neural network with HEALPix sampling for cosmological applications

Nathanaël Perraudin, Michaël Defferrard

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are a cornerstone of the Deep Learning toolbox and have led to many breakthroughs in Artificial Intelligence. So far, these neural networks (NNs) have mostly been developed for regular Euclidean domains such as those su ...

Time-sliced perturbation theory with primordial non-Gaussianity and effects of large bulk flows on inflationary oscillating features

Mikhail Ivanov

We extend the formalism of time-sliced perturbation theory (TSPT) for cosmological large-scale structure to include non-Gaussian initial conditions. We show that in such a case the TSPT interaction vertices acquire new contributions whose time-dependence f ...

H0LiCOW-IX. Cosmographic analysis of the doubly imaged quasar SDSS 1206+4332 and a new measurement of the Hubble constant

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Hung-Hsu Chan, Vivien François Bonvin, Adriano Agnello

We present a blind time-delay strong lensing (TDSL) cosmographic analysis of the doubly imaged quasar SDSS 1206+4332. We combine the relative time delay between the quasar images, Hubble Space Telescope imaging, the Keck stellar velocity dispersion of the ...

Testing gravity with galaxy-galaxy lensing and redshift-space distortions using CFHT-Stripe 82, CFHTLenS, and BOSS CMASS datasets

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Johan Comparat, Huanyuan Shan

The combination of galaxy-galaxy lensing (GGL) and redshift space distortion of galaxy clustering (RSD) is a privileged technique to test general relativity predictions and break degeneracies between the growth rate of structure parameter f and the amplitu ...

Asymptotic scale invariance and its consequences

Kengo Shimada

Scale invariance supplemented by the requirement of the absence of new heavy particles may play an important role in addressing the hierarchy problem. We discuss how the Standard Model may become scale invariant at the quantum level above a certain value o ...

Characterising the environment and the line of sight of gravitationally lensed quasars using weak lensing technique

Olga Tihhonova

Estimates of the Hubble constant from different cosmological probes produce discrepant results in the framework of the standard cosmological model. In order to assess whether this tension is coming from unaccounted systematic errors, or is hinting towards ...
