本文解析证明星系巡天中暗物质晕的红移依赖选择效应会在红移空间功率谱中引入偏差,并通过模拟表明其对单极和四极矩影响小于2%,且对宇宙学参数估计影响不大。

摘要:

在宽视场星系光谱巡天中,几乎不可能获得一个在星系性质(如恒星质量和宿主暗物质晕质量)方面跨越一定红移范围均质的星系样本。尽管存在选择效应,大多数分析中的理论模板在将测量到的成团量与理论比较时,仍假设为单一示踪体。我们从解析上证明,选择效应不可避免地在线性到非线性尺度上给红移空间功率谱引入偏差。为定量评估选择效应的影响,我们通过从N体模拟的暗物质晕中选取高于红移依赖质量阈值的晕来构建模拟星系目录,使得所得暗物质晕的红移分布n(z)与类SDSS星系的红移分布相匹配。我们发现,与单一质量阈值(因此为单一示踪体)样本的相应矩相比,对于类SDSS星系样本的n_g(z),选择效应在k≲0.3 h Mpc^{-1}尺度上分别导致红移空间功率谱的单极矩和四极矩的分数变化最多仅为1%和2%。我们还论证,只要红移依赖的选择效应适中,该效应不太可能在使用Fisher矩阵方法估计宇宙学参数时引起显著偏差。

英文摘要:

In a wide-area spectroscopic survey of galaxies, it is nearly impossible to obtain a homogeneous sample of galaxies with respect to galaxy properties such as stellar mass and host halo mass across a range of redshifts. Despite the selection effect, theoretical templates in most analyses assume single tracers when compared with the measured clustering quantities. We demonstrate analytically that the selection effect inevitably introduces a bias in the redshift-space power spectrum on scales from linear to nonlinear scales. To quantitatively assess the impact of the selection effect, we construct mock galaxy catalogs from halos in N-body simulations by selecting halos above redshift-dependent mass thresholds such that the resulting redshift distribution of the halos, $n(z)$, matches that of SDSS-like galaxies. We find that the selection effect causes fractional changes of up to only 1% and 2% in the monopole and quadrupole moments of the redshift-space power spectrum at $k\lesssim 0.3~h{\rm{Mpc}}^{-1}$, respectively, compared to the moments for the single mass-threshold (therefore single tracer) sample, for $n_{\rm g}(z)$ of the SDSS-like galaxy samples. We also argue that the selection effect is unlikely to cause a significant bias in the estimation of cosmological parameters using the Fisher matrix method, provided that the redshift-dependent selection effect is modest.
