摘要:

我们测量星系槽周围的弱透镜剪切,即背景星系相对于前景星系场投影中密度不足的径向对齐,在科学验证数据的广泛红移范围内,从暗能量调查。我们的剪切信号的检测是非常显着的(10至15 $σ$的最小角尺度)的红移范围z在[0.2,0.5]的投影星系场和角直径为10弧分的槽。1°。这些测量探测了星系、物质密度和会聚场之间的联系。通过假设星系是有偏见的示踪剂的物质密度与泊松噪声,我们发现我们的测量与预测的基准λ冷暗物质模型的协议。在大槽尺度上的透镜信号的预测实际上是独立的星系和物质的连接的基础模型的细节。我们的比较槽周围的剪切与周围的大星系数的圆柱体是一致的星系和物质之间的对称性过和欠密度。此外,我们测量的两点角相关的槽与星系的透镜信号相比,是敏感的所有尺度上的星系偏差。因此,槽的透镜信号及其与星系的聚集是一个有前途的探测物质欠密度的统计特性及其与星系场的联系。

英文摘要:

We measure the weak lensing shear around galaxy troughs, i.e. the radial alignment of background galaxies relative to underdensities in projections of the foreground galaxy field over a wide range of redshift in Science Verification data from the Dark Energy Survey. Our detection of the shear signal is highly significant (10 to 15$σ$ for the smallest angular scales) for troughs with the redshift range z in [0.2,0.5] of the projected galaxy field and angular diameters of 10 arcmin...1°. These measurements probe the connection between the galaxy, matter density, and convergence fields. By assuming galaxies are biased tracers of the matter density with Poissonian noise, we find agreement of our measurements with predictions in a fiducial Lambda cold dark matter model. The prediction for the lensing signal on large trough scales is virtually independent of the details of the underlying model for the connection of galaxies and matter. Our comparison of the shear around troughs with that around cylinders with large galaxy counts is consistent with a symmetry between galaxy and matter over- and underdensities. In addition, we measure the two-point angular correlation of troughs with galaxies which, in contrast to the lensing signal, is sensitive to galaxy bias on all scales. The lensing signal of troughs and their clustering with galaxies is therefore a promising probe of the statistical properties of matter underdensities and their connection to the galaxy field.
