Mapping substructure in the HST Frontier Fields cluster lenses and in cosmological simulations

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Mathilde Jauzac, Hakim Atek, Johan Richard, Cristina Popa

We map the lensing-inferred substructure in the first three clusters observed by the Hubble Space Telescope Frontier Fields (HSTFF) Initiative: Abell 2744 (z = 0.308), MACSJ 0416, (z = 0.396) and MACSJ 1149 (z = 0.543). Statistically resolving dark matter ...

On the dark radiation problem in the axiverse

Anna Tokareva

String scenarios generically predict that we live in a so called axiverse: the Universe with about a hundred of light axion species which are decoupled from the Standard Model particles. However, the axions can couple to the inflaton which leads to their p ...

A detection of wobbling brightest cluster galaxies within massive galaxy clusters

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Frédéric Courbin, David Richard Harvey

A striking signal of dark matter beyond the standard model is the existence of cores in the centre of galaxy clusters. Recent simulations predict that a brightest cluster galaxy ( BCG) inside a cored galaxy cluster will exhibit residual wobbling due to pre ...

Clustering properties of g-selected galaxies at z similar to 0.8

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Johan Comparat, David Schlegel, Timothée Guy Olivier Delubac, Ginevra Favole

Current and future large redshift surveys, as the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (SDSS-IV/eBOSS) or the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), will use emission-line galaxies (ELGs) to probe cosmological ...

Poincaré, Scale and Conformal Symmetries

Georgios Karananas

Symmetries are omnipresent and play a fundamental role in the description of Nature. Thanks to them, we have at our disposal nontrivial selection rules that dictate how a theory should be constructed. This thesis, which is naturally divided into two parts, ...

Strong lensing in the inner halo of galaxy clusters

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib

We present an axially symmetric formula to calculate the probability of finding gravitational arcs in galaxy clusters, being induced by their massive dark matter haloes, as a function of clusters redshifts and virial masses. The formula includes the ellipt ...

On holography for (pseudo-)conformal cosmology

Sergey Sibiryakov

We propose a holographic dual for (pseudo-)conformal cosmological scenario, with a scalar field that forms a moving domain wall in adS(5). The domain wall separates two vacua with unequal energy densities. Unlike in the existing construction, the 5d soluti ...

Completing Lorentz violating massive gravity at high energies

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

Theories with massive gravitons are interesting for a variety of physical applications, ranging from cosmological phenomena to holographic modeling of condensed matter systems. To date, they have been formulated as effective field theories with a cutoff pr ...

Planck intermediate results XXIV. Constraints on variations in fundamental constants

Julien Lesgourgues, Fabio Finelli

Any variation in the fundamental physical constants, more particularly in the fine structure constant, a, or in the mass of the electron, me, affects the recombination history of the Universe and cause an imprint on the cosmic microwave background angular ...

Warm-hot baryons comprise 5-10 per cent of filaments in the cosmic web

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Mathilde Jauzac, Céline Tchernin, Richard Massey, Johan Richard

Observations of the cosmic microwave background indicate that baryons account for 5 per cent of the Universe's total energy content(1). In the local Universe, the census of all observed baryons falls short of this estimate by a factor of two(2,3). Cosmolog ...
