Euclid: Improving the efficiency of weak lensing shear bias calibration

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Malte Tewes, Yi Wang, Richard Massey, Marcello Farina

To obtain an accurate cosmological inference from upcoming weak lensing surveys such as the one conducted by Euclid, the shear measurement requires calibration using galaxy image simulations. As it typically requires millions of simulated galaxy images and ...

The phase-space distribution of the M 81 satellite system

Nick Heesters

The spatial distribution of dwarf galaxies around their host galaxies is a critical test for the standard model of cosmology because it probes the dynamics of dark matter halos and is independent of the internal baryonic processes of galaxies. Comoving pla ...

On the distribution of the cold neutral medium in galaxy discs

Robin Gopala Tress

The cold neutral medium (CNM) is an important part of the galactic gas cycle and a precondition for the formation of molecular and star-forming gas, yet its distribution is still not fully understood. In this work, we present extremely high resolution simu ...

Euclid preparation XXX. Performance assessment of the NISP red grism through spectroscopic simulations for the wide and deep surveys

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Gianluca Castignani, Maurizio Martinelli, Yi Wang, Richard Massey, Fabio Finelli, Marcello Farina

This work focusses on the pilot run of a simulation campaign aimed at investigating the spectroscopic capabilities of the Euclid NearInfrared Spectrometer and Photometer (NISP), in terms of continuum and emission line detection in the context of galaxy evo ...

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 ...

Revealing galaxy candidates out to z similar to 16 with JWST observations of the lensing cluster SMACS0723

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Hakim Atek, Johan Richard

One of the main goals of the JWST is to study the first galaxies in the Universe. We present a systematic photometric analysis of very distant galaxies in the first JWST deep field towards the massive lensing cluster SMACS0723. As a result, we report the d ...

Strong gravitational lensing by AGNs as a probe of the quasar-host relations in the distant Universe

Frédéric Courbin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Aymeric Alexandre Galan, Malte Tewes

A rare case of a quasar acting as a gravitational lens allows a precise determination of the mass of the quasar's host galaxy and offers a new path to studying the connections between supermassive black holes and their host galaxies. The tight correlations ...

Molecular and ionized gas in tidal dwarf galaxies: the spatially resolved star formation relation

Yves Revaz

Tidal dwarf galaxies (TDGs) are low-mass objects that form within tidal and/or collisional debris ejected from more massive interacting galaxies. We use CO(1-0) observations from Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array and integral-field spectroscopy ...

Resolving Galactic-scale Obscuration of X-Ray AGNs at z & GSIM; 1 with COSMOS-Web

Michaela Hirschmann

A large fraction of the accreting supermassive black hole population is shrouded by copious amounts of gas and dust, particularly in the distant (z & GSIM; 1) universe. While much of the obscuration is attributed to a parsec-scale torus, there is a known c ...

Gaia Data Release 3: The extragalactic content

Shuangqing Liao

The Gaia Galactic survey mission is designed and optimized to obtain astrometry, photometry, and spectroscopy of nearly two billion stars in our Galaxy. Yet as an all-sky multi-epoch survey, Gaia also observes several million extragalactic objects down to ...
