摘要:

我们目前的第二个数据发布的COSMOS莱曼-阿尔法映射和层析成像观测(CLAMATO)的调查进行了LRIS光谱仪的PRACK-I望远镜。本项目利用暗恒星形成星系和类星体在z ~ 2-3的光谱中的莱曼α森林吸收来追踪星系际介质中的中性氢。特别是,我们使用了320个物体在~0.2 ° ^2的足迹上重建了2.05 < z < 2.55的吸收场,分辨率为~2 h^{-1}Mpc。我们对观测数据应用维纳滤波技术,以重建体积为4.1 × 10^5的共动立方Mpc的场的三维图。除了过滤的通量图,我们第一次推断出潜在的暗物质场,通过一个前向建模框架,从星系和莱曼α森林数据的联合可能性,找到明确的例子,详细的宇宙网络组成的宇宙空隙,片,丝,和节点。除了传统的数字,我们提出了一些交互式的三维模型,允许探索的数据和定性比较已知的星系调查。我们发现,我们推断的过密度与从星系场发现的一致。我们的简化光谱、提取的莱曼-阿尔法森林像素数据和重建的层析成像图可在https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7524313上公开获得。

英文摘要:

We present the second data release of the COSMOS Lyman-Alpha Mapping And Tomography Observations (CLAMATO) Survey conducted with the LRIS spectrograph on the Keck-I telescope. This project used Lyman-alpha forest absorption in the spectra of faint star forming galaxies and quasars at z ~ 2-3 to trace neutral hydrogen in the intergalactic medium. In particular, we use 320 objects over a footprint of ~0.2 deg^2 to reconstruct the absorption field at 2.05 < z < 2.55 at ~2 h^{-1}Mpc resolution. We apply a Wiener filtering technique to the observed data to reconstruct three dimensional maps of the field over a volume of 4.1 x 10^5 comoving cubic Mpc. In addition to the filtered flux maps, for the first time we infer the underlying dark matter field through a forward modeling framework from a joint likelihood of galaxy and Lyman-alpha forest data, finding clear examples of the detailed cosmic web consisting of cosmic voids, sheets, filaments, and nodes. In addition to traditional figures, we present a number of interactive three dimensional models to allow exploration of the data and qualitative comparisons to known galaxy surveys. We find that our inferred over-densities are consistent with those found from galaxy fields. Our reduced spectra, extracted Lyman-alpha forest pixel data, and reconstructed tomographic maps are available publicly at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7524313
