所有尺度上的宇宙引力II:独立于模型的修正引力$N$ -物体模拟

Cosmological gravity on all scales II: Model independent modified gravity $N$-body simulations

Sankarshana Srinivasan, Daniel B Thomas, Francesco Pace, Richard Battye

摘要:

迄今为止,修正重力模型的模型无关约束主要存在于线性尺度上。最近开发的形式主义提出了一个一致的参数化,是有效的所有尺度。使用这种方法,我们进行模型无关的修改后的重力$N$体模拟的所有宇宙尺度与时间相关的$μ$。我们提出了我们的模拟的收敛性测试,我们研究如何以及现有的拟合函数再现非线性物质的模拟功率谱。我们发现,尽管在我们模拟的参数空间上,所有拟合函数的准确性都存在显着变化,但ReACT框架为物质功率谱提供了最一致的性能。我们评论如何将其提高到未来调查所需的水平,如欧几里得和维拉鲁宾望远镜(LSST)。我们还展示了如何在我们的方法中从模拟的物质功率谱中一致地计算弱透镜观测量,并表明ReACT在拟合弱透镜观测量时也表现最好。这为使用即将进行的调查的所有数据进行完全独立于模型的修正重力测试铺平了道路。

英文摘要:

Model-independent constraints on modified gravity models hitherto exist mainly on linear scales. A recently developed formalism presented a consistent parameterisation that is valid on all scales. Using this approach, we perform model-independent modified gravity $N$-body simulations on all cosmological scales with a time-dependent $μ$. We present convergence tests of our simulations, and we examine how well existing fitting functions reproduce the non-linear matter power spectrum of the simulations. We find that although there is a significant variation in the accuracy of all of the fitting functions over the parameter space of our simulations, the ReACT framework delivers the most consistent performance for the matter power spectrum. We comment on how this might be improved to the level required for future surveys such as Euclid and the Vera Rubin Telescope (LSST). We also show how to compute weak-lensing observables consistently from the simulated matter power spectra in our approach, and show that ReACT also performs best when fitting the weak-lensing observables. This paves the way for a full model-independent test of modified gravity using all of the data from such upcoming surveys.
