摘要:

即将开展的发射线光谱巡天(如 Euclid 和 Roman Space Telescope)将受到星际污染源带来的系统效应影响:这些星系由于其发射光谱中的谱线混淆,导致其红移和与我们之间的距离被错误计算。尤其棘手的是涉及两条发射波长接近的谱线之间混淆的污染源(例如被误认为 \oiii 的 H$β$ 发射体),因为它们与目标星系在空间上高度相关。它们在观测星系目录的 3D 分布中引入了一种特定模式,这会改变星系相关函数中 BAO 峰值的位置,并使使用该样本进行的任何宇宙学分析产生偏差。在此,我们提出了一种预测星系目录中污染源比例的新方法,使用图神经网络(GNNs)学习污染源比例的后验分布,同时对宇宙学和星系偏差进行边缘化处理。该方法使用以晕作为星系代理的模拟进行开发。GNN 能够利用通常在宇宙学分析中不考虑的小尺度信息,推断出污染源比例后验分布的均值和标准差。将大尺度信息作为全局属性注入图中,提高了 GNN 在对宇宙学进行边缘化处理时的性能。

英文摘要:

Upcoming emission-line spectroscopic surveys, such as Euclid and the Roman Space Telescope, will be affected by systematic effects due to the presence of interlopers: galaxies whose redshift and distance from us are miscalculated due to line confusion in their emission spectra. Particularly pernicious are interlopers involving the confusion between two lines with close emitted wavelengths, like H$β$ emitters confused as \oiii, since those are strongly spatially correlated with the target galaxies. They introduce a particular pattern in the 3D distribution of the observed galaxy catalog that can shift the position of the BAO peak in the galaxy correlation function and bias any cosmological analysis performed with that sample. Here we present a novel method to predict the fraction of interlopers in a galaxy catalog, using Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to learn the posterior distribution of the interloper fraction while marginalizing over cosmology and galaxy bias. The method is developed using simulations with halos acting as a proxy for galaxies. The GNN can infer the mean and standard deviation of the posterior distribution of interloper fraction using small-scale information that is usually not considered in cosmological analyses. The injection of large-scale information into the graph as a global attribute improves the performance of the GNN when marginalizing over cosmology.
