模拟具有暗晕的发光红星系的各向异性聚集:与观测和宇宙学意义的直接对抗

Simulating the Anisotropic Clustering of Luminous Red Galaxies with Subhalos: A Direct Confrontation with Observation and Cosmological Implications

Takahiro Nishimichi, Akira Oka

摘要:

我们使用宇宙学$N$ -体模拟中识别的暗晕对斯隆数字巡天中的发光红星系(LRGs)的明显聚类各向异性进行建模。我们首先进行马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗分析的参数表征subhalos托管LRGs假设一个特定的$Λ$ CDM宇宙学上,我们运行的模拟。我们表明,具有中心和卫星晕的简单模型可以解释大尺度上观察到的功率谱多极矩,直至十六极($k\lesssim0.3~h\mathrm{Mpc}^{-1}$)。根据模型的细节,$20$至$30$百分比的卫星分数较弱。分数是强大的,当我们采用一个更精细的模型的基础上,从文献中的晕占据数。然后,我们改变宇宙学参数控制各向异性的红移空间有效地变形的模拟盒(Alcock-Paczynski效应)和改变的幅度的速度(红移空间扭曲)。我们证明,我们可以约束宇宙的几何形状,结构的增长率,和参数表征LRGs的同时。这是一个步骤,宇宙学分析与现实的偏见描述超越经验偏置函数与滋扰参数。

英文摘要:

We model the apparent clustering anisotropy of Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey using subhalos identified in cosmological $N$-body simulations. We first conduct a Markov-chain Monte Carlo analysis on the parameters characterizing subhalos hosting LRGs assuming a specific $Λ$CDM cosmology on which we run the simulations. We show that simple models with central and satellite subhalos can explain the observed multipole moments of the power spectrum up to hexadecapole on large scales ($k\lesssim0.3~h\mathrm{Mpc}^{-1}$). A satellite fraction of $20$ to $30$ per cent is favored weakly depending on the detail of the model. The fraction is shown to be robust when we adopt a more refined model based on the halo occupation number from the literature. We then vary cosmological parameters controlling the anisotropy in redshift-space effectively by deforming the simulation box (the Alcock-Paczynski effect) and changing the amplitude of the velocities (the redshift-space distortions). We demonstrate that we can constrain the geometry of the universe, the structure growth rate, and the parameters characterizing LRGs simultaneously. This is a step toward cosmological analysis with realistic bias description beyond empirical bias functions with nuisance parameters.
