WISE星系与宇宙微波背景的互相关

Cross-correlation of WISE Galaxies with the Cosmic Microwave Background

Tomotsugu Goto, Istvan Szapudi, Benjamin R. Granett

摘要:

我们估计的交叉功率谱的星系样本从宽视场红外巡天探测器(WISE)调查与7年威尔金森微波各向异性探测器(WMAP)的温度各向异性地图。一个保守选择的星系样本覆盖约13000平方度,红移中值为z=0.15。互功率谱显示两个数据集之间的相关性,没有明显的依赖WMAP的Q,V和W频段。我们根据积分萨克斯-沃尔夫(ISW)效应解释这些结果:对于l=6-87处的|b| >20度样本,我们测量信号的振幅(对于香草λ CDM期望归一化为1)为3.4 ± 1.1,即,3.1 sigma检测我们讨论了其他可能性,但从表面上看,在平坦宇宙中检测到线性ISW效应是由大尺度衰变势引起的,这是由暗能量驱动的加速膨胀的迹象。

英文摘要:

We estimated the cross-power spectra of a galaxy sample from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) survey with the 7-year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) temperature anisotropy maps. A conservatively-selected galaxy sample covers ~13000sq.deg, with a median redshift of z=0.15. Cross-power spectra show correlations between the two data sets with no discernible dependence on the WMAP Q, V and W frequency bands. We interpret these results in terms of the the Integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect: for the |b|>20 deg sample at l=6-87, we measure the amplitude (normalized to be 1 for vanilla LambdaCDM expectation) of the signal to be 3.4+-1.1, i.e., 3.1 sigma detection. We discuss other possibilities, but at face value, the detection of the linear ISW effect in a flat universe is caused by large scale decaying potentials, a sign of accelerated expansion driven by Dark Energy.
