Galaxy angular momentum directions (spins) are observable, well described by the Lagrangian tidal torque theory, and proposed to probe the primordial universe. They trace the spins of dark matter halos, and are indicators of protohalos properties in Lagrangian space. We define a Lagrangian spin parameter and tidal twist parameters and quantify their influence on the spin conservation and predictability in the spin mode reconstruction in $N$-body simulations. We conclude that protohalos in a more tidal twisting environments are preferentially more rotation-supported, and more likely to conserve their spin direction through the cosmic evolution. These tidal environments and spin magnitudes are predictable by a density reconstruction in Lagrangian space, and such predictions can improve the correlation between galaxy spins and the initial conditions in the study of constraining the primordial universe by spin mode reconstruction.

Iterative reconstruction excursions for Baryon Acoustic Oscillations and beyond
密度场重建技术已被广泛用于恢复星系巡天中因非线性而退化的重子声学振荡(BAO)特征。最近的研究主张采用迭代步骤,以提高恢复远远超过标准技术。在本文中,我们研究了几个选定的迭代重建技术的性能集中在BAO和宽带形状的两点聚类。我们包括红移空间的失真,晕偏,和散粒噪声和检查的组成部分,在傅立叶空间和配置空间中使用基于密度场的重建和基于位移场的重建。我们发现,在存在不可忽略的散粒噪声的情况下,位移场重建很快变得具有挑战性,因此提出了可以实际应用于星系等更稀疏场的替代方法。对于一个星系场,实施一个去偏置步骤,以消除拉格朗日偏置似乎是至关重要的位移场重建。我们表明,迭代重建并没有大大提高BAO功能超出了积极优化的标准重建与一个小的平滑内核。然而,我们发现采取迭代步骤允许我们更“稳定”地使用小的平滑核,即,而不会在大尺度上引起与线性功率谱的显著偏离。在我们研究的一个具体例子中,我们发现在具有积极标准重建的$P( k \sim 0.1h/Mpc)$中13%的偏差可以通过迭代步骤减少到3- 4%。
