摘要:

我们使用当前样本的~ 10,000 zCOSMOS光谱的源选择与I(AB)< 22.5定义的密度场到z~1,在径向维度上的分辨率比光度红移或弱透镜可能更大。我们采用新的算法,我们已经开发(ZADE),将尚未观察到的天体光谱通过修改其光度红移概率分布使用附近星系的光谱红移。这种策略使我们能够探测更广泛的星系环境,并减少密度场中的泊松噪声。重建的10 k zCOSMOS星系的过密度场由类空区域包围的类团模式组成,延伸到z~1。其中一些结构非常大,跨越COSMOS场的~50 Mpc/h横向方向,并在红移中延伸到Δ z~0.05。我们提出的三维overdensity地图,并比较重建overdensity场的独立识别维里化的星系和星系团在可见光和X射线中检测到的。过密结构的分布通常可以通过这些维里化结构很好地追踪。zCOSMOS数据和模拟目录中的大尺度结构的比较揭示了在0.2<z<1中,数据和模拟之间的给定超密度以上的所有尺寸的结构中封闭的体积的分数之间的极好的一致性。

英文摘要:

We use the current sample of ~10,000 zCOSMOS spectra of sources selected with I(AB) < 22.5 to define the density field out to z~1, with much greater resolution in the radial dimension than has been possible with either photometric redshifts or weak lensing. We apply new algorithms that we have developed (ZADE) to incorporate objects not yet observed spectroscopically by modifying their photometric redshift probability distributions using the spectroscopic redshifts of nearby galaxies. This strategy allows us to probe a broader range of galaxy environments and reduce the Poisson noise in the density field. The reconstructed overdensity field of the 10k zCOSMOS galaxies consists of cluster-like patterns surrounded by void-like regions, extending up to z~1. Some of these structures are very large, spanning the ~50 Mpc/h transverse direction of the COSMOS field and extending up to Delta z~0.05 in redshift. We present the three dimensional overdensity maps and compare the reconstructed overdensity field to the independently identified virialised groups of galaxies and clusters detected in the visible and in X-rays. The distribution of the overdense structures is in general well traced by these virialised structures. A comparison of the large scale structures in the zCOSMOS data and in the mock catalogues reveals an excellent agreement between the fractions of the volume enclosed in structures of all sizes above a given overdensity between the data and the mocks in 0.2<z<1.
