用未来的星系巡天来约束原始非高斯性

Constraining primordial non-Gaussianity with future galaxy surveys

Tommaso Giannantonio, Cristiano Porciani, Julien Carron, Adam Amara, Annalisa Pillepich

摘要:

我们研究了约束力对原始非高斯的未来调查的宇宙的大尺度结构的短期调查(如暗能量调查- DES),以及较长期的项目,如欧几里得和WFIRST。具体来说,我们进行Fisher矩阵分析预测,这样的调查,使用DES和欧几里德配置为例,并考虑到任何预期的光度和光谱数据。我们专注于两点统计,我们认为三个观测:在红移空间的3D星系功率谱,角星系功率谱,和投影弱透镜剪切功率谱。我们研究了在基本LCDM集上增加一些额外参数的影响。我们包括两个标准参数来模拟当前值的暗能量状态方程及其时间导数,w_0,w_a,我们占的可能性原始非高斯的本地,等边和正交类型,参数fNL和,可选的,光谱指数n_fNL。我们目前预测的约束条件,这些参数使用不同的观测探头。我们表明,占模型,包括原始的非高斯性不会降低对标准LCDM集的约束,也不会对暗能量状态方程。通过结合弱透镜数据和投影星系团的信息,一致地包括所有两点函数及其协方差,我们发现预测边缘化误差σ(fNL)~ 3,σ(n_fNL)~ 0.12,来自原始非高斯局部形状的欧几里德调查,而正交和等边约束对于星系团的情况被削弱,这是由于偏置的尺度依赖性较弱。在透镜的情况下,约束在所有配置中保持类似。

英文摘要:

We study the constraining power on primordial non-Gaussianity of future surveys of the large-scale structure of the Universe for both near-term surveys (such as the Dark Energy Survey - DES) as well as longer term projects such as Euclid and WFIRST. Specifically we perform a Fisher matrix analysis forecast for such surveys, using DES-like and Euclid-like configurations as examples, and take account of any expected photometric and spectroscopic data. We focus on two-point statistics and we consider three observables: the 3D galaxy power spectrum in redshift space, the angular galaxy power spectrum, and the projected weak-lensing shear power spectrum. We study the effects of adding a few extra parameters to the basic LCDM set. We include the two standard parameters to model the current value for the dark energy equation of state and its time derivative, w_0, w_a, and we account for the possibility of primordial non-Gaussianity of the local, equilateral and orthogonal types, of parameter fNL and, optionally, of spectral index n_fNL. We present forecasted constraints on these parameters using the different observational probes. We show that accounting for models that include primordial non-Gaussianity does not degrade the constraint on the standard LCDM set nor on the dark-energy equation of state. By combining the weak lensing data and the information on projected galaxy clustering, consistently including all two-point functions and their covariance, we find forecasted marginalised errors sigma (fNL) ~ 3, sigma (n_fNL) ~ 0.12 from a Euclid-like survey for the local shape of primordial non-Gaussianity, while the orthogonal and equilateral constraints are weakened for the galaxy clustering case, due to the weaker scale-dependence of the bias. In the lensing case, the constraints remain instead similar in all configurations.
