Heuristic Estimation of the Vacuum Energy Density of the Universe: Part I—Analysis Based on Time Domain Electromagnetic Radiation

In this paper, an inequality satisfied by the vacuum energy density of the universe is derived using an indirect and heuristic procedure. The derivation is based on a proposed thought experiment, according to which an electron is accelerated to a constant ...

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 ...

The DESI N-body Simulation Project - II. Suppressing sample variance with fast simulations

Andrei Variu, Cheng Zhao, Yu Yu, Hanyu Zhang

Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) will construct a large and precise three-dimensional map of our Universe. The survey effective volume reaches similar to 20 h(-3) Gpc(3). It is a great challenge to prepare high-resolution simulations with a much ...

Assessing tension metrics with dark energy survey and Planck data

Eduardo Sanchez, Jonathan Andrew Blazek

Quantifying tensions - inconsistencies amongst measurements of cosmological parameters by different experiments - has emerged as a crucial part of modern cosmological data analysis. Statistically significant tensions between two experiments or cosmological ...

The Completed SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Large-scale structure catalogues for cosmological analysis

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao, Johan Comparat, Anand Stéphane Raichoor

We present large-scale structure catalogues from the completed extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS). Derived from Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) IV Data Release 16 (DR16), these catalogues provide the data samples, corrected for observ ...

Euclid preparation: VII. Forecast validation for Euclid cosmological probes

Georges Meylan, Jean-Luc Starck, Maurizio Martinelli, Slobodan Ilic, Yi Wang, Richard Massey

Aims. The Euclid space telescope will measure the shapes and redshifts of galaxies to reconstruct the expansion history of the Universe and the growth of cosmic structures. The estimation of the expected performance of the experiment, in terms of predicted ...

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 ...

Precise measurements of time delays in gravitationally lensed quasars for competitive and independent determination of the Hubble constant

Vivien François Bonvin

During these last decades, by virtue of observations, the Standard Cosmological Model has emerged, providing a description of the Universe's evolution using a minimal set of independent constraints - the cosmological parameters. Among them is the expansion ...

A 24 mm diameter fibre positioner for spectroscopic surveys

Hannes Bleuler, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Mohamed Bouri, Luzius Gregor Kronig, Philipp Hörler

One of the big research topics in modern cosmology is the mystery of dark Energy. To unveil the secret, cosmologists want to measure precisely the evolution of large scale structures in the universe. One way of doing so is to measure the 3D location of a h ...

Universe and Matter Conjectured as a 3-Dimensional Lattice with Topological Singularities

Gérard Gremaud

One fundamental problem of modern physics is the search for a theory of everything able to explain the nature of space-time, what matter is and how matter interacts. There are various propositions, as Grand Unified Theory, Quantum Gravity, Supersymmetry, S ...
