Heuristic Estimation of the Vacuum Energy Density of the Universe: Part II-Analysis Based on Frequency Domain Electromagnetic Radiation

Marcos Rubinstein

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

XXXIV. The effect of linear redshift-space distortions in photometric galaxy clustering and its cross-correlation with cosmic shear

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Gianluca Castignani, Maurizio Martinelli, Malte Tewes, Slobodan Ilic, Alessandro Pezzotta, Yi Wang, Richard Massey, Fabio Finelli, Marcello Farina

Context. The cosmological surveys that are planned for the current decade will provide us with unparalleled observations of the distribution of galaxies on cosmic scales, by means of which we can probe the underlying large-scale structure (LSS) of the Univ ...

Beyond - ?CDM constraints from the full shape clustering measurements from BOSS and eBOSS

Cheng Zhao

We analyse the full shape of anisotropic clustering measurements from the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey quasar sample together with the combined galaxy sample from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey. We obtain constraints on the ...

Euclid preparation XXIV. Calibration of the halo mass function in λ(ν)CDM cosmologies

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Gianluca Castignani, Austin Chandler Peel, Maurizio Martinelli, Slobodan Ilic, Yi Wang, Fabio Finelli, Marcello Farina

Euclid's photometric galaxy cluster survey has the potential to be a very competitive cosmological probe. The main cosmological probe with observations of clusters is their number count, within which the halo mass function (HMF) is a key theoretical quanti ...

Cosmology intertwined: A review of the particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology associated with the cosmological tensions and anomalies

Frédéric Courbin, Richard Irving Anderson, Julien Lesgourgues, Mikhail Ivanov, Fabio Finelli, Adriano Agnello, Jie Wang, Florian Niedermann, Emre Ozulker, Melissa Joseph, Suresh Kumar, Hsin-Yu Chen

The standard Lambda Cold Dark Matter (Lambda CDM) cosmological model provides a good description of a wide range of astrophysical and cosmological data. However, there are a few big open questions that make the standard model look like an approximation to ...

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 ...

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 ...

H0LiCOW-XIII. A 2.4 per cent measurement of H-0 from lensed quasars: 5.3 sigma tension between early- and late-Universe probes

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Hung-Hsu Chan, Vivien François Bonvin, Olga Tihhonova, Adriano Agnello

We present a measurement of the Hubble constant (H-0) and other cosmological parameters from a joint analysis of six gravitationally lensed quasars with measured time delays. All lenses except the first are analysed blindly with respect to the cosmological ...

Spontaneous conformal symmetry breaking in fishnet CFT

Georgios Karananas

Quantum field theories with exact but spontaneously broken conformal invariance have an intriguing feature: their vacuum energy (cosmological constant) is equal to zero. Up to now, the only known ultraviolet complete theories where conformal symmetry can b ...
