Scanning For Dark Matter Subhalos in Hubble Space Telescope Imaging of 54 Strong Lenses
James W. Nightingale, Qiuhan He, Xiaoyue Cao +9
The cold dark matter (DM) model predicts that every galaxy contains thousands of DM subhalos; almost all other DM models include a physical process that smooths away the subhalos.…
DESI Bright Galaxy Survey: Final Target Selection, Design, and Validation
ChangHoon Hahn, Michael J. Wilson, Omar Ruiz-Macias +57
Over the next five years, the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) will use 10 spectrographs with 5000 fibers on the 4m Mayall Telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory to…
The DESI Survey Validation: Results from Visual Inspection of Bright Galaxies, Luminous Red Galaxies, and Emission Line Galaxies
Ting-Wen Lan, R. Tojeiro, E. Armengaud +79
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Survey has obtained a set of spectroscopic measurements of galaxies to validate the final survey design and target selections. To as…
Galactic satellite systems in CDM, WDM and SIDM
Victor J. Forouhar Moreno, Alejandro Benitez-Llambay, Shaun Cole +1
We investigate the population of bright satellites () of haloes of mass comparable to that of the Milky Way in cosmological simulations in whi…
A lightcone catalogue from the Millennium-XXL simulation: improved spatial interpolation and colour distributions for the DESI BGS
Alex Smith, Shaun Cole, Cameron Grove +2
The use of realistic mock galaxy catalogues is essential in the preparation of large galaxy surveys, in order to test and validate theoretical models and to assess systematics. We…
Beyond the bulge-halo conspiracy? Density profiles of Early-type galaxies from extended-source strong lensing
Amy Etherington, James W. Nightingale, Richard Massey +9
Observations suggest that the dark matter and stars in early-type galaxies `conspire' to produce a surprisingly simple distribution of total mass, , with $γ\appr…
