低红移下的宇宙流场

Cosmic Streaming Field at Low Redshift

Lifan Wang

摘要:

我们使用红移低于0.08的Ia型超新星样本研究了附近宇宙的膨胀。这些超新星可以让我们以前所未有的精确度来测量奇特的速度。我们已经详细研究了随红移而变化的哈勃常数的可能性,没有发现附近宇宙中有一个哈勃项的证据。发现了一个振幅约为$340^{63}_{-71}$ km/sec的大尺度流运动,其方向为$(l_0, b_0) = (312^{\rm o}.0^{13.5}_{-7.4}, 25^{\rm o}.7^{8.0}_{-9.2})$,接近Shapley超星系团中心的方向。大尺度流运动最好用包含强双极项的函数来拟合。流动速度场从最低的红移($\sim 0.007$)延伸到0.025以上,并可能延伸到更高的红移。红移低于0.01的速度场可以用偶极场或同样的双极流速度场来描述,它延伸到$z \sim 0.025$之外。我们也能够推导出一个强大的估计的随机速度分量的奇特的速度场。在低于0.01的红移量(加权平均红移为$\sim$ 0.067)内,发现该热分量约为270 km/sec。在修正了这种平滑的流动运动之后,我们能够显着改善这些超新星的哈勃膨胀拟合。对于69个自由度,CMAGIC方法给出了$χ^2$从90到63的显著降低,并且产生仅为0.12量级的残余散射;最大光方法也给出了适度的改进。

英文摘要:

We study the expansion of the nearby Universe using a sample of Type Ia supernovae at redshifts below 0.08. These supernovae allow peculiar velocities to be measured at unprecedented precision. We have investigated in detail the possibility of a varying Hubble constant with redshift and found no evidence of a monopole term for the nearby Universe. A large scale streaming motion is found at an amplitude of about $340^{63}_{-71}$ km/sec, aligned in the direction of $(l_0, b_0) = (312^{\rm o}.0^{13.5}_{-7.4}, 25^{\rm o}.7^{8.0}_{-9.2})$, which is close to the direction of the center of Shapley supercluster of galaxies. The large scale streaming motion is best fit by a function involving a strong bipolar term. The streaming velocity field extends from the lowest redshift ($\sim 0.007$) to beyond 0.025 and likely out to even higher redshifts. The velocity field at redshift below 0.01 can be equally well described by a dipole field or by the same bipolar streaming velocity field that reaches out to beyond $z \sim 0.025$. We are also able to deduce a robust estimate of the random velocity component of the peculiar velocity field. Within the volume of redshift below 0.01 (weighted average redshift of $\sim$ 0.067), this thermal component is found to be about 270 km/sec. After correcting this smooth streaming motion, we are able to significantly improve the Hubble expansion fits of these supernovae. The CMAGIC method gives a dramatic decrease of $χ^2$ from 90 to 63 for 69 degrees of freedom, and yields a residual scatter of only 0.12 magnitude; the maximum light method gives also a moderate improvement.
