红移空间相关和密度峰的标度相关随机偏置

Redshift space correlations and scale-dependent stochastic biasing of density peaks

Vincent Desjacques, Ravi K. Sheth

摘要:

计算了高斯随机场的红移空间关联函数和密度峰的功率谱。在线性区k < 0.1 h/Mpc,红移空间功率谱为P^ s_{pk}(k,u)= exp(-f^2 s_{vel} ^2 k^2 u^2)* [ b_{pk}(k)+ b_{vel}(k)fu^2]^2 * P_m(k),其中u是相对于视线的角度,s_{vel}是一维速度色散,f是生长速率,以及b_{pk}(k)和b_{vel}(k)是k相关的线性空间和速度偏差因子。对于峰,s_{vel}的值取决于b_{vel}的功能形式。峰值模型是值得注意的,因为它有无偏的速度-峰值运动是由暗物质流驱动的-但是,为了实现这一点,b_{vel}是k依赖的。我们推测,这是真的,在一般情况下:k依赖的空间偏差将导致k依赖的b_{vel},即使有偏见的示踪剂流与暗物质。由于线性偏置参数的k依赖性,应用于峰值模型的标准操作将导致对生长因子的k依赖性估计,这可能被错误地解释为修改的暗能量或重力的特征。我们使用的Fisher形式主义表明,增长率f的约束是由两个因素退化,如果一个允许的k-依赖的速度偏置的峰值类型。我们讨论了非线性演化的一个简单估计,并说明了红移空间多极子的峰值偏差的影响。当k < 0.1 h/Mpc时,峰的偏置是确定的,但与k有关,因此无论是在实空间还是在红移空间,位形空间的偏置都是随机的,与尺度有关。我们提供了这种随机性及其演变的表达式(删节)。

英文摘要:

We calculate the redshift space correlation function and the power spectrum of density peaks of a Gaussian random field. In the linear regime k < 0.1 h/Mpc, the redshift space power spectrum is P^s_{pk}(k,u) = exp(-f^2 s_{vel}^2 k^2 u^2) * [b_{pk}(k) + b_{vel}(k) f u^2]^2 * P_m(k), where u is the angle with respect to the line of sight, s_{vel} is the one-dimensional velocity dispersion, f is the growth rate, and b_{pk}(k) and b_{vel}(k) are k-dependent linear spatial and velocity bias factors. For peaks, the value of s_{vel} depends upon the functional form of b_{vel}. The peaks model is remarkable because it has unbiased velocities -- peak motions are driven by dark matter flows -- but, in order to achieve this, b_{vel} is k-dependent. We speculate that this is true in general: k-dependence of the spatial bias will lead to k-dependence of b_{vel} even if the biased tracers flow with the dark matter. Because of the k-dependence of the linear bias parameters, standard manipulations applied to the peak model will lead to k-dependent estimates of the growth factor that could erroneously be interpreted as a signature of modified dark energy or gravity. We use the Fisher formalism to show that the constraint on the growth rate f is degraded by a factor of two if one allows for a k-dependent velocity bias of the peak type. We discuss a simple estimate of nonlinear evolution and illustrate the effect of the peak bias on the redshift space multipoles. For k < 0.1 h/Mpc, the peak bias is deterministic but k-dependent, so the configuration space bias is stochastic and scale dependent, both in real and redshift space. We provide expressions for this stochasticity and its evolution (abridged).
