摘要:

我们目前的测量数据发布9(DR 9)CMASS样本的SDSS-III重子振荡光谱巡天(BOSS)的各向异性星系聚类。我们分析了四极和四极相关函数的宽范围形状,得到了在样品的有效红移$z=0.57$处,对哈勃膨胀率$H(z)$、角直径距离$D_A(z)$、归一化增长率$f(z)σ_8(z)$、物理物质密度$Ω_m h^2$和物质涨落偏置幅度bσ_8(z)的约束。得到了{ $H(0.57)$,$D_A(0.57)$,$f(0.57)σ_8(0.57)$,$Ω_m h^2$,$bσ_8(0.57)$ } = { $87.6_{-6.8}^{+6.7}$,$1396\pm73$,$0.126_{-0.010}^{+0.008}$,$1.19\pm0.14$,$0.428\pm0.066$ }及其协方差矩阵。我们的星系聚类分析中没有很好地约束的参数被边缘化,具有宽平坦的先验。由于没有来自其他数据集的先验(即,CMB)的观测数据,并且不假定任何暗能量模型,我们的结果可以与其它数据集,如CMB、SNe、透镜效应或其它星系团数据相结合,来约束给定宇宙学模型的参数。我们发现,主要的权力约束暗能量从各向异性星系聚类信号,相比角平均的一个(θ),包括归一化的增长率$f(z)σ_8(z)$。在wCDM宇宙学模型的情况下,我们的单探针CMASS约束,结合CMB(WMAP 9 +SPT),产生一个值的暗能量状态方程参数的$w=-0.90\pm0.11$。因此,在当前和即将进行的大规模星系调查中,在调查暗能量的性质时,包括$f(z)σ_8(z)$是很重要的。

英文摘要:

We present measurements of the anisotropic galaxy clustering from the Data Release 9 (DR9) CMASS sample of the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS). We analyze the broad-range shape of the monopole and quadrupole correlation functions to obtain constraints, at the effective redshift $z=0.57$ of the sample, on the Hubble expansion rate $H(z)$, the angular-diameter distance $D_A(z)$, the normalized growth rate $f(z)σ_8(z)$, the physical matter density $Ω_m h^2$, and the biased amplitude of matter fluctuation bσ_8(z). We obtain {$H(0.57)$, $D_A(0.57)$, $f(0.57)σ_8(0.57)$, $Ω_m h^2$, $bσ_8(0.57)$} = {$87.6_{-6.8}^{+6.7}$, $1396\pm73$, $0.126_{-0.010}^{+0.008}$, $1.19\pm0.14$, $0.428\pm0.066$} and their covariance matrix as well. The parameters which are not well constrained by our of galaxy clustering analysis are marginalized over with wide flat priors. Since no priors from other data sets (i.e., CMB) are adopted and no dark energy models are assumed, our results from BOSS CMASS galaxy clustering alone may be combined with other data sets, i.e. CMB, SNe, lensing or other galaxy clustering data to constrain the parameters of a given cosmological model. We show that the major power on constraining dark energy from the anisotropic galaxy clustering signal, as compared to the angular-averaged one (monopole), arises from including the normalized growth rate $f(z)σ_8(z)$. In the case of the wCDM cosmological model our single-probe CMASS constraints, combined with CMB (WMAP9+SPT), yield a value for the dark energy equation of state parameter of $w=-0.90\pm0.11$. Therefore, it is important to include $f(z)σ_8(z)$ while investigating the nature of dark energy with current and upcoming large-scale galaxy surveys.
