QCD-driven dark matter: AQNs formation and observational tests

Ludovic Van Waerbeke

The nature of dark matter remains a central problem in cosmology. A compelling possibility is that dark matter is macroscopic, consisting of composite objects formed in the early U…

Wide-field cosmic shear surveys

Y. Mellier, L. van Waerbeke, E. Bertin +2

We present the current status of cosmic shear based on all surveys done so far. Taken together, they cover more about 70 deg and concern more than 3 million galaxies with accur…

Mass-detection of a matter concentration projected near the cluster Abell 1942: Dark clump or high-redshift cluster?

T. Erben, L. van Waerbeke, Y. Mellier +4

A weak-lensing analysis of wide-field - and -band images centered on the cluster Abell 1942 has uncovered a mass concentration arcminutes South of the cluster center…

Pure Luminosity Evolution Hypothesis for QSOs: From Luminosity Functions to Synthetic Catalogues

G. Mathez, L. Van Waerbeke, Y. Mellier +2

This paper describes the simulation of realistic Monte-Carlo extragalactic catalogues, aimed at comparing the behaviour of cosmological tests versus input parameters. QSO catalogue…
