Precision theoretical methods for large-scale structure of the Universe

We develop new analytic methods to accurately describe the formation of cosmic large-scale structure. These methods are based on the path integral formalism and allows one to efficiently address a number of long-standing problems in the field. We describe ...

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: Improving Lag Detection with an Extended Multiyear Baseline

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Yuguang Chen, Yue Shen, Feng Li

We investigate the effects of extended multiyear light curves (9 yr photometry and 5 yr spectroscopy) on the detection of time lags between the continuum variability and broad-line response of quasars at z greater than or similar to 1.5, and compare with t ...

A microphotonic astrocomb

Tobias Kippenberg, Michael Wolfgang Geiselmann, Junqiu Liu, Tobias Herr, Miles Henry Anderson, Stefan Kundermann

Earth-like planets, dark energy and variability of fundamental physical constants can be discovered by observing wavelength shifts in the optical spectra of astronomical objects(1-5). These wavelength shifts are so tiny that exquisitely accurate and precis ...

Galactic rotation curves versus ultralight dark matter: Implications of the soliton-host halo relation

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

Bosonic ultralight dark matter (ULDM) would form cored density distributions at the center of galaxies. These cores, seen in numerical simulations, admit analytic description as the lowest energy bound state solution ("soliton") of the Schroedinger-Poisson ...

The turbulent pressure support in galaxy clusters revisited

Claudio Gheller

Due to their late formation in cosmic history, clusters of galaxies are not fully in hydrostatic equilibrium and the gravitational pull of their mass at a given radius is expected not to be entirely balanced by the thermal gas pressure. Turbulence may supp ...

Advanced gravitational lensing techniques for precision cosmology

Markus Rexroth

Gravitational lensing - the deflection of light by gravity - has greatly developed since its famous first observation in 1919, which validated Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. The strength of this effect does not depend on the nature of the mass wh ...

Ultralight Dark Matter Resonates with Binary Pulsars

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

We consider the scenario where dark matter (DM) is represented by an ultralight classical scalar field performing coherent periodic oscillations. We point out that such DM perturbs the dynamics of binary systems either through its gravitational field or vi ...

On the Lagrangian structure of transport equations: The Vlasov–Poisson system

Maria Colombo

The Vlasov-Poisson system is an important nonlinear transport equation, used to describe the evolution of particles under their self-consistent electric or gravitational field. The existence of classical solutions is limited to dimensions d

Models of the strongly lensed quasar DES J0408-5354

Eduardo Sanchez, Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon, Hung-Hsu Chan, Vivien François Bonvin, Adriano Agnello

We present detailed modelling of the recently discovered, quadruply lensed quasar J0408-5354, with the aim of interpreting its remarkable configuration: besides three quasar images (A, B, D) around the main deflector (G1), a fourth image (C) is significant ...

Looking for dark matter trails in colliding galaxy clusters

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, David Richard Harvey, Richard Massey

If dark matter interacts, even weakly, via non-gravitational forces, simulations predict that it will be preferentially scattered towards the trailing edge of the halo during collisions between galaxy clusters. This will temporarily create a non-symmetric ...
