摘要:

我们提出了更新的宇宙学约束的KiDS+维京-450宇宙剪切数据集(KV 450),估计使用红移分布和光度样本定义使用自组织地图(SOM)。我们的基准分析发现边缘后约束的$S_8\equivσ_8\sqrt{Ω_{\rm m}/0.3}=0.716^{+0.043}_{-0.038}$,小于,但在其他方面与以前的工作使用此数据集($|ΔS_8| = 0.023$)。我们分析额外的样本和红移分布构造在三个方面:不包括某些光谱调查期间的红移校准,不包括低置信度的光谱红移的红移校准,并考虑只有光度源,联合校准至少三个光谱调查。在所有情况下,这里使用的方法被证明是稳健的:我们发现使用我们的SOM定义和分析的所有样品的$|ΔS_8| \leq 0.011$的置信分析的最大偏差。为了证明在我们的分析中发现的系统偏差的减少,我们强调了在没有DEEP 2光谱数据集的情况下进行红移校准时的结果。在这种情况下,我们发现边际后约束的$S_8=0.707_{-0.042}^{+0.046}$;相对于基准的差异,这是显着小于,并在相反的方向,从以前的工作,相当于移位。这些结果表明,我们改进的宇宙学参数估计是不敏感的病理性的光度源的光谱学用于直接红移校准,因此,这种系统的影响不能负责与KV 450和普朗克CMB探针的估计之间的差异$S_8$观察到的。

英文摘要:

We present updated cosmological constraints for the KiDS+VIKING-450 cosmic shear data set (KV450), estimated using redshift distributions and photometric samples defined using self-organising maps (SOMs). Our fiducial analysis finds marginal posterior constraints of $S_8\equivσ_8\sqrt{Ω_{\rm m}/0.3}=0.716^{+0.043}_{-0.038}$; smaller than, but otherwise consistent with, previous work using this data set ($|ΔS_8| = 0.023$). We analyse additional samples and redshift distributions constructed in three ways: excluding certain spectroscopic surveys during redshift calibration, excluding lower-confidence spectroscopic redshifts in redshift calibration, and considering only photometric sources which are jointly calibrated by at least three spectroscopic surveys. In all cases, the method utilised here proves robust: we find a maximal deviation from our fiducial analysis of $|ΔS_8| \leq 0.011$ for all samples defined and analysed using our SOM. To demonstrate the reduction in systematic biases found within our analysis, we highlight our results when performing redshift calibration without the DEEP2 spectroscopic data set. In this case we find marginal posterior constraints of $S_8=0.707_{-0.042}^{+0.046}$; a difference with respect to the fiducial that is both significantly smaller than, and in the opposite direction to, the equivalent shift from previous work. These results suggest that our improved cosmological parameter estimates are insensitive to pathological misrepresentation of photometric sources by the spectroscopy used for direct redshift calibration, and therefore that this systematic effect cannot be responsible for the observed difference between $S_8$ estimates made with KV450 and Planck CMB probes.
