Moduli Fields as Quintessence and the Chameleon
Philippe Brax, Jerome Martin
We consider models where moduli fields are not stabilized and play the role of quintessence. In order to evade gravitational tests, we investigate the possibility that moduli behav…
The XMM-Newton wide-field survey in the COSMOS field: VI. Statistical properties of clusters of galaxies
A. Finoguenov, L. Guzzo, G. Hasinger +30
We present the results of a search for galaxy clusters in the first 36 XMM-Newton pointings on the COSMOS field. We reach a depth for a total cluster flux in the 0.5-2 keV band of…
The XMM-Newton wide-field survey in the COSMOS field: III. optical identification and multiwavelength properties of a large sample of X-ray selected sources
M. Brusa, G. Zamorani, A. Comastri +31
[ABRIGED] We present the optical identification of a sample of 695 X-ray sources detected in the first 1.3 deg^2 of the XMM-COSMOS survey, down to a 0.5-2 keV (2-10 keV) limiting f…
Photometric Redshifts of Galaxies in COSMOS
B. Mobasher, P. Capak, N. Z. Scoville +26
We measure photometric redshifts and spectral types for galaxies in the COSMOS survey. We use template fitting technique combined with luminosity function priors and with the optio…
On the "Galactic Habitable Zone"
Nikos Prantzos
The concept of Galactic Habitable Zone (GHZ) was introduced a few years ago as an extension of the much older concept of Circumstellar Habitable Zone. However, the physical process…
zCOSMOS: A Large VLT/VIMOS redshift survey covering 0 < z < 3 in the COSMOS field
S. J. Lilly, O. Le Fevre, A. Renzini +42
zCOSMOS is a large redshift survey that is being undertaken in the COSMOS field using 600 hours of observation with the VIMOS spectrograph on the 8-m VLT. The survey is designed to…
High Energy Astroparticle Physics
Guenter Sigl
We give a brief (and highly incomplete) overview of the current experimental and theoretical status of high energy cosmic rays and their secondary gamma-rays and neutrinos. We focu…
MoLUSC: A MOck Local Universe Survey Constructor
T. Sousbie, H. Courtois, G. Bryan +1
This paper presents MoLUSC, a new method for generating mock galaxy catalogs from a large scale ( Mpc) dark matter simulation, that requires only modest CPU tim…
531 new spectroscopic redshifts from the CDFS and a test on the cosmological relevance of the GOODS-South field
C. D. Ravikumar, M. Puech, H. Flores +23
(Abbrev.) This paper prepares a series of papers analysing the Intermediate MAss Galaxy Evolution Sequence (IMAGES) up to z=1. Intermediate mass galaxies (MJ <=-20.3) are selected…
Gravitational waves generated by second order effects during inflation
Bob Osano, Cyril Pitrou, Peter Dunsby +2
The generation of gravitational waves during inflation due to the non-linear coupling of scalar and tensor modes is discussed. Two methods describing gravitational wave perturbatio…
Probing inflation with CMB polarization : weak lensing effect on the covariance of CMB spectra
Jonathan Rocher, Karim Benabed, Francois Bouchet
CMB anisotropies are modified by the weak lensing effect of intervening large scale structures on the photon path from the last scattering surface to the observer. This has to be a…
Active galactic nuclei and massive galaxy cores
Sebastien Peirani, Scott Kay, Joe Silk
(Context) Central active galactic nuclei (AGN) are supposed to play a key role in the evolution of their host galaxies. In particular, the dynamical and physical properties of the…
Large Structures and Galaxy Evolution in COSMOS at z < 1.1
N. Scoville, H. Aussel, A. Benson +25
We present the first identification of large-scale structures (LSS) at z in the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS). The structures are identified from adaptive smoothing of g…
COSMOS : Hubble Space Telescope Observations
N. Scoville, A. Benson, A. W. Blain +50
The Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) was initiated with an extensive allocation (590 orbits in Cycles 12-13) using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) for high resolution imaging. Her…
Combining Strong and Weak Gravitational Lensing in Abell 1689
M. Limousin, J. Richard, E. Jullo +14
We present a reconstruction of the mass distribution of galaxy cluster Abell 1689 at z = 0.18 using detected strong lensing features from deep HST/ACS observations and extensive gr…
Scalar-field quintessence by cosmic shear: CFHT data analysis and forecasts for DUNE
Carlo Schimd, Ismael Tereno
A light scalar field, minimally or not-minimally coupled to the metric field, is a well-defined candidate for the dark energy, overcoming the coincidence problem intrinsic to the c…
AGN self-regulation in cooling flow clusters
A. Cattaneo, R. Teyssier
We use three-dimensional high-resolution adaptive-mesh-refinement simulations to investigate if mechanical feedback from active galactic nucleus jets can halt a massive cooling flo…
Detecting cold gas at intermediate redshifts: GMRT survey using Mg II systems
Neeraj Gupta, R. Srianand, P. Petitjean +3
Intervening HI 21-cm absorption systems at z > 1.0 are very rare and only 4 confirmed detections have been reported in the literature. Despite their scarcity, they provide interest…
General Relativistic Dynamics of Compact Binary Systems
Luc Blanchet
The equations of motion of compact binary systems have been derived in the post-Newtonian (PN) approximation of general relativity. The current level of accuracy is 3.5PN order. Th…
Lattice Melting and Rotation in Perpetually Pulsating Equilibria
C. Pichon, D. Lynden-Bell, J. Pichon +1
Systems whose potential energies consists of pieces that scale as r^-2 together with pieces that scale as r^2, show no violent relaxation to Virial equilibrium but may pulsate at c…
