AI 中文摘要
弱引力透镜为描绘宇宙结构提供了有力途径,但当前大多数测量依赖于深场成像巡天中的星系形状畸变,并受到内禀取向、测光红移不确定性和形状测量偏差等系统效应的影响。在此,我们提出一种利用基本平面(FP)尺寸残差δ_r≡Δlog₁₀R_e的谱学星系-星系透镜放大测量,样本为DESI亮星系巡天透镜后方的326万个DESI亮红星系(LRG)源。FP类关系可利用透镜不变量(包括速度弥散σ₀和表面亮度I_e)预测LRG的内禀尺寸,其弥散约为0.06–0.07 dex。透镜放大效应会放大LRG的尺寸,给出直接会聚响应δ_r(κ)=κ/ln10,但我们表明,完整的透镜响应会受到放大偏差的修正,因为用I_e拟合R_e不可避免地会在平均尺寸残差δ̄_r(m)中引入星等依赖。在标定这一响应后,我们恢复的表面密度轮廓的不确定度可与使用500万至2000万个高红移源的单个Stage-III剪切巡天相当。相应的超额表面密度轮廓与基于剪切的测量结果一致。我们进一步表明,该估计量对尺寸测量不确定度具有稳健性,其会聚乘性偏差仅为尺寸偏差的约-0.2倍。因此,FP透镜提供了一种干净、谱学且互补的宇宙结构探针。
英文摘要
Weak gravitational lensing provides a powerful way to map cosmic structure, but most current measurements rely on galaxy shape distortions from deep imaging surveys and are affected by systematics such as intrinsic alignments, photometric-redshift uncertainties and shape-measurement biases. Here we present a spectroscopic galaxy-galaxy lensing magnification measurement using Fundamental-Plane (FP) size residuals, $δ_r\equivΔ\log_{10}R_\mathrm{e}$, from 3.26 million DESI luminous red galaxy (LRG) sources behind DESI Bright Galaxy Survey lenses. The FP-like relation predicts the intrinsic sizes of LRGs from lensing-invariant quantities, including velocity dispersion $σ_0$ and surface brightness $I_\mathrm{e}$, with a scatter of about 0.06-0.07 dex. Lensing magnifies LRG sizes, giving the direct convergence response $δ_r(κ)=κ/\ln 10$, but we show that the full lensing response is modified by magnification bias, because fitting $R_\mathrm{e}$ with $I_\mathrm{e}$ inevitably induces a magnitude dependence in $\barδ_r(m)$. After calibrating this response, we recover surface-density profiles with uncertainties comparable to those from individual Stage-III shear surveys using 5-20 million higher-redshift sources. The corresponding excess surface-density profiles agree with shear-based measurements. We further show that the estimator is robust to size-measurement uncertainties, with a convergence multiplicative bias only $\simeq -0.2$ times the size bias. FP lensing therefore provides a clean, spectroscopic and complementary probe of cosmic structure.
