来自NVSS的射电源偶极子是否与CMB和$\Lambda$CDM一致?

AI总结:

本研究重新评估CMB测量与NVSS射电源偶极子估计的不一致性,通过考虑散粒噪声、成团性及运动学贡献,结合成团红移法与交叉匹配技术细化估计,发现标准ΛCDM模型下NVSS偶极子与CMB偶极子的运动学起源在2σ内一致。

摘要:

宇宙微波背景(CMB)角分布中的偶极矩被认为源于多普勒效应以及我们相对于CMB参考系的运动。大尺度结构(LSS)的观测应能呈现相关的“运动学偶极子”,并有助于检验CMB偶极子的运动学起源。有趣的是,此前许多LSS偶极子研究都显示其与CMB的预期存在差异。本文中,我们重新评估了CMB测量结果与来自NVSS(NRAO VLA Sky Survey,美国国家射电天文台甚大阵巡天)射电源星表的偶极子估计值之间的明显不一致性。我们发现,在确定预期偶极子信号时,必须考虑NVSS源的散粒噪声、成团性以及运动学贡献。我们使用成团红移方法和交叉匹配技术来细化成团项的估计。随后,我们在标准$\Lambda$CDM宇宙学模型下推导了预期NVSS偶极子的概率分布,该模型包含所有偶极子分量(即运动学、散粒噪声和成团聚类分量)。我们的模型与文献中大多数先前的NVSS偶极子测量结果吻合度优于$\lesssim 2\sigma$。我们得出结论:在$\Lambda$CDM框架内,NVSS偶极子与CMB偶极子的运动学起源是一致的。

英文摘要:

The dipole moment in the angular distribution of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is thought to originate from the Doppler effect and our motion relative to the CMB frame. Observations of large-scale structure (LSS) should show a related ``kinematic dipole'' and help test the kinematic origin of the CMB dipole. Intriguingly, many previous LSS dipole studies suggest discrepancies with the expectations from the CMB. Here we reassess the apparent inconsistency between the CMB measurements and dipole estimates from the NVSS catalog of radio sources. We find that it is important to account for the shot noise and clustering of the NVSS sources, as well as kinematic contributions, in determining the expected dipole signal. We use the clustering redshift method and a cross-matching technique to refine estimates of the clustering term. We then derive a probability distribution for the expected NVSS dipole in a standard $Λ$CDM cosmological model including all (i.e., kinematic, shot-noise and clustering) dipole components. Our model agrees with most of the previous NVSS dipole measurements in the literature at better than $\lesssim 2σ$. We conclude that the NVSS dipole is consistent with a kinematic origin for the CMB dipole within $Λ$CDM.
