利用星系-星系弱透镜测量修正上帝之指

Using galaxy-galaxy weak lensing measurements to correct the Finger-of-God

Chiaki Hikage, Masahiro Takada, David N. Spergel

摘要:

几十年来,宇宙学家一直在使用星系来追踪物质的大规模分布。目前,这种分析中系统不确定性的最大来源是对星系红移和暗物质分布之间复杂关系进行建模的挑战。如果所有的星系都位于晕的中心,那么上帝之指(FoG)效应就会很小,星系和物质分布之间的关系也很简单。然而,许多星系,甚至一些发光的红色星系(LRGs),并不位于晕的中心。由于星系-星系透镜效应对偏心星系也很敏感,我们证明了我们可以使用透镜效应测量来确定这种效应的幅度,并确定FoG效应的预期幅度。我们开发了一种方法,用于使用透镜数据来模拟FoG如何抑制功率谱振幅,并表明当前数据意味着在波数k=0.2h/Mpc处有30%的抑制。我们的分析意味着,重要的是要补充光谱调查与成像调查具有足够的深度和广泛的领域覆盖。联合成像和光谱调查允许一个强大的,公正的使用功率谱振幅信息:它改善了边缘化的增长率误差fg=dln D/dln a的一个因素2在广泛的红移z<1.4。我们还发现,暗能量状态方程参数,w 0,和中微子质量,fnu,可以无偏约束相结合的透镜信息,改善了10- 25%的光谱调查相比,没有透镜校准。

英文摘要:

For decades, cosmologists have been using galaxies to trace the large-scale distribution of matter. At present, the largest source of systematic uncertainty in this analysis is the challenge of modeling the complex relationship between galaxy redshift and the distribution of dark matter. If all galaxies sat in the centers of halos, there would be minimal Finger-of-God (FoG) effects and a simple relationship between the galaxy and matter distributions. However, many galaxies, even some of the luminous red galaxies (LRGs), do not lie in the centers of halos. Because the galaxy-galaxy lensing is also sensitive to the off-centered galaxies, we show that we can use the lensing measurements to determine the amplitude of this effect and to determine the expected amplitude of FoG effects. We develop an approach for using the lensing data to model how the FoG suppresses the power spectrum amplitudes and show that the current data implies a 30% suppression at wavenumber k=0.2h/Mpc. Our analysis implies that it is important to complement a spectroscopic survey with an imaging survey with sufficient depth and wide field coverage. Joint imaging and spectroscopic surveys allow a robust, unbiased use of the power spectrum amplitude information: it improves the marginalized error of growth rate fg=dln D/dln a by up to a factor of 2 over a wide range of redshifts z<1.4. We also find that the dark energy equation-of-state parameter, w0, and the neutrino mass, fnu, can be unbiasedly constrained by combining the lensing information, with an improvement of 10--25% compared to a spectroscopic survey without lensing calibration.
