用光谱星系巡天的最佳角功率谱模拟真实的数据分析

Towards simulating a realistic data analysis with an optimised angular power spectrum of spectroscopic galaxy surveys

摘要:

角功率谱是分析观测到的星系数涨落的一个自然工具。在一个标准的分析中,角星系分布被切成同心的红移箱,并考虑箱对之间的谐波系数的所有相关性-一个被称为“层析成像”的过程。然而,从即将到来的光谱星系宇宙学调查的数据的无与伦比的质量将使这种方法在计算上不可行,鉴于越来越多的箱。在这里,我们对合成数据进行测试,在以前的研究中提出了一种新的方法,以节省计算时间。根据这种方法,整个星系的红移分布被细分成厚仓,忽略它们之间的跨仓相关性;然而,每个厚仓进一步细分成薄仓,在这种情况下,考虑所有的跨仓相关性。我们创建了一个模拟数据集,然后在贝叶斯框架中进行分析。我们确认,新提出的方法节省了计算时间,并给出了超过那些标准方法的结果。

英文摘要:

The angular power spectrum is a natural tool to analyse the observed galaxy number count fluctuations. In a standard analysis, the angular galaxy distribution is sliced into concentric redshift bins and all correlations of its harmonic coefficients between bin pairs are considered---a procedure referred to as `tomography'. However, the unparalleled quality of data from oncoming spectroscopic galaxy surveys for cosmology will render this method computationally unfeasible, given the increasing number of bins. Here, we put to test against synthetic data a novel method proposed in a previous study to save computational time. According to this method, the whole galaxy redshift distribution is subdivided into thick bins, neglecting the cross-bin correlations among them; each of the thick bin is, however, further subdivided into thinner bins, considering in this case all the cross-bin correlations. We create a simulated data set that we then analyse in a Bayesian framework. We confirm that the newly proposed method saves computational time and gives results that surpass those of the standard approach.
