The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS). Gravity test from the combination of redshift-space distortions and galaxy-galaxy lensing at

S. de la Torre, E. Jullo, C. Giocoli +39

We carry out a joint analysis of redshift-space distortions and galaxy-galaxy lensing, with the aim of measuring the growth rate of structure; this is a key quantity for understand…

On the complexity and the information content of cosmic structures

Franco Vazza

The emergence of cosmic structure is commonly considered one of the most complex phenomena in Nature. However, this complexity has never been defined nor measured in a quantitative…

The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey: Measuring the growth rate of structure around cosmic voids

A. J. Hawken, B. R. Granett, A. Iovino +33

We identified voids in the completed VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS), using an algorithm based on searching for empty spheres. We measured the cross-correlation…

The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS). The matter density and baryon fraction from the galaxy power spectrum at redshift

S. Rota, B. R. Granett, J. Bel +37

We use the final catalogue of the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS) to measure the power spectrum of the galaxy distribution at high redshift, presenting results…

Turbulence and Vorticity in Galaxy Clusters Generated by Structure Formation

F. Vazza, T. W. Jones, M. Brüggen +4

Turbulence is a key ingredient for the evolution of the intracluster medium, whose properties can be predicted with high resolution numerical simulations. We present initial result…

Evolution of cosmic filaments and of their galaxy population from MHD cosmological simulations

Claudio Gheller, Franco Vazza, Marcus Brueggen +4

Despite containing about a half of the total matter in the Universe, at most wavelengths the filamentary structure of the cosmic web is difficult to observe. In this work, we use l…

Can giant radio halos probe the merging rate of galaxy clusters?

R. Cassano, G. Brunetti, C. Giocoli +1

Radio and X-ray observations of galaxy clusters probe a direct link between cluster mergers and giant radio halos (RH), suggesting that these sources can be used as probes of the c…

Clustering-based redshift estimation: application to VIPERS/CFHTLS

V. Scottez, Y. Mellier, B. R. Granett +36

We explore the accuracy of the clustering-based redshift estimation proposed by Ménard et al. (2013) when applied to VIPERS and CFHTLS real data. This method enables us to reconstr…

LOFAR 150-MHz observations of the Boötes field: Catalogue and Source Counts

W. L. Williams, R. J. van Weeren, H. J. A. Röttgering +32

We present the first wide area (19 deg), deep ( μJy beam), high resolution ( arcsec) LOFAR High Band Antenna image of the Boötes field ma…

A KAT-7 view of a low-mass sample of galaxy clusters

G. Bernardi, T. Venturi, R. Cassano +6

Radio observations over the last two decades have provided evidence that diffuse synchrotron emission in the form of megaparsec-scale radio halos in galaxy clusters is likely traci…

The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS). Exploring the dependence of the three-point correlation function on stellar mass and luminosity at 0.5<z<1.1

M. Moresco, F. Marulli, L. Moscardini +34

The three-point correlation function (3PCF) is a powerful probe to investigate the clustering of matter in the Universe in a complementary way with respect to lower-order statistic…
