一般移动障碍物的偏移集理论和非高斯初始条件

Excursion Set Theory for generic moving barriers and non-Gaussian initial conditions

Andrea De Simone, Michele Maggiore, Antonio Riotto

摘要:

密度扰动随平滑尺度随机演化的漂移集理论提供了一种计算宇宙结构(如暗物质晕、片和丝)质量函数的方法。这些质量函数的计算被映射到所谓的第一通过时间问题中存在的移动障碍。在本文中,我们使用的路径积分制定最近开发的行程集理论,解析地解决了第一次穿越时间问题中存在的一个通用的移动障碍,特别是障碍对应的椭球崩溃。我们执行高斯和非高斯初始条件下的计算。因此,在完全一致的方式下得到了椭球面塌缩势垒和非高斯性的晕质量函数的表达式,它不需要引入任何人为的形状因子,这些形状因子是从基于球形塌缩的Press-Schechter形式主义中得到的,通常在文献中采用。

英文摘要:

Excursion set theory, where density perturbations evolve stochastically with the smoothing scale, provides a method for computing the mass function of cosmological structures like dark matter halos, sheets and filaments. The computation of these mass functions is mapped into the so-called first-passage time problem in the presence of a moving barrier. In this paper we use the path integral formulation of the excursion set theory developed recently to analytically solve the first-passage time problem in the presence of a generic moving barrier, in particular the barrier corresponding to ellipsoidal collapse. We perform the computation for both Gaussian and non-Gaussian initial conditions. The expression of the halo mass function for the ellipsoidal collapse barrier and with non-Gaussianity is therefore obtained in a fully consistent way and it does not require the introduction of any form factor artificially derived from the Press-Schechter formalism based on the spherical collapse and usually adopted in the literature.
