SDSS DR7发光红星系大尺度功率谱全形状的宇宙学意义

Cosmological implications from the full shape of the large-scale power spectrum of the SDSS DR7 luminous red galaxies

Francesco Montesano, Ariel G. Sanchez, Stefanie Phleps

摘要:

我们获得宇宙学的约束,从测量的球平均功率谱(PS)的分布约90000发光的红色星系(LRGs)在7646 deg 2的北银河系帽从DR 7的SDSS。由于160个LasDamas模拟星表,为了模拟相同的星系并具有与数据相同的选择,估计了误差和模式相关性。我们应用的模型,可以准确地描述完整的形状的PS与使用少量的自由参数。使用LRG PS,结合最新测量的温度和偏振各向异性的宇宙微波背景(CMB),光度距离关系从最大的可用类型1a超新星(SNIa)数据集和精确测定的本地哈勃参数,我们得到宇宙学约束为五个不同的参数空间。当所有四个实验合并时,平坦LCDM模型的特征为Omega_M=0.259 ± 0.016,Omega_b=0.045 ± 0.001,n_s=0.963 ± 0.011,sigma_8=0.802 ± 0.021和h=0.712 ± 0.014。当我们考虑曲率作为一个自由参数时,我们没有检测到与平坦度的偏差:当仅使用CMB和LRG PS时,Omega_k=(1.6+-5.4)*10^{-3};包含其他两个实验并没有改善这个结果。考虑到暗能量状态方程w_DE与时间无关,我们测得w_DE=-1.025+-0.065,对于平坦几何,w_DE=-0.981+-0.083。当通过标度因子的线性函数描述w_DE时,我们的结果没有证据表明任何时间演化。在接下来的几年里,新的实验将允许测量星系团,其精度比今天高得多。像这里使用的模型将是一个有价值的工具,以实现观测的全部潜力,并获得宇宙学参数的无偏约束。

英文摘要:

We obtain cosmological constraints from a measurement of the spherically averaged power spectrum (PS) of the distribution of about 90000 luminous red galaxies (LRGs) across 7646 deg2 in the Northern Galactic Cap from the DR7 of the SDSS. The errors and mode correlations are estimated thanks to the 160 LasDamas mock catalogues, created in order to simulate the same galaxies and to have the same selection as the data. We apply a model, that can accurately describe the full shape of the PS with the use of a small number of free parameters. Using the LRG PS, in combination with the latest measurement of the temperature and polarisation anisotropy in the cosmic microwave background (CMB), the luminosity-distance relation from the largest available type 1a supernovae (SNIa) dataset and a precise determination of the local Hubble parameter, we obtain cosmological constraints for five different parameter spaces. When all the four experiments are combined, the flat LCDM model is characterised by Omega_M=0.259+-0.016, Omega_b=0.045+-0.001, n_s=0.963+-0.011, sigma_8=0.802+-0.021 and h=0.712+-0.014. When we consider curvature as a free parameter, we do not detect deviations from flatness: Omega_k=(1.6+-5.4)*10^{-3}, when only CMB and the LRG PS are used; the inclusion of the other two experiments do not improve this result. Considering the dark energy equation of state w_DE as time independent, we measure w_DE=-1.025+-0.065, for a flat geometry, w_DE=-0.981+-0.083 otherwise. When describing w_DE through a linear function of the scale factor, our results do not evidence any time evolution. In the next few years new experiments will allow to measure the clustering of galaxies with a precision much higher than achievable today. Models like the one used here will be a valuable tool in order to achieve the full potentials of the observations and obtain unbiased constraints on the cosmological parameters.
