用虚群的质量函数探讨原初非高斯性

The Mass Function of Void Groups as a Probe of the Primordial non-Gaussianity

Hyunmi Song, Jounghun Lee

摘要:

原始的非高斯信号,如果测量准确,将使我们能够区分不同的候选模型之间的宇宙暴胀。由于位于空区的星系群是罕见的事件,它们的丰度可能是原始非高斯性的敏感探针。在非高斯初始条件下,基于扩展的Press-Schechter理论,建立了一个空洞群质量函数的解析模型,并研究了它对初始非高斯参数的依赖性.通过调整原始非高斯性参数,对Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4星系群表的观测结果拟合空团的解析质量函数,进行了可行性研究。

英文摘要:

The primordial non-Gaussianity signal, if measured accurately, will allow us to distinguish between different candidate models for the cosmic inflation. Since the galaxy groups located in void regions are rare events, their abundance may be a sensitive probe of the primordial non-Gaussianity. We construct an analytic model for the mass function of void groups in the framework of the extended Press-Schechter theory with non-Gaussian initial conditions and investigate how it depends on the primordial non-Gaussianity parameter. A feasibility study is conducted by fitting the analytic mass function of void groups to the observational results from the galaxy group catalog of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4 with adjusting the primordial non-Gaussianity parameter.
